Design of High-Payload Ascorbyl Palmitate Nanosuspensions for Enhanced Skin Delivery
A high-payload ascorbyl palmitate (AP) nanosuspension (NS) was designed to improve skin delivery following topical application. The AP-loaded NS systems were prepared using the bead-milling technique, and softly thickened into NS-loaded gel (NS-G) using hydrophilic polymers. The optimized NS-G…

Taste Masking of Dexketoprofen Trometamol Orally Disintegrating Granules by High-Shear Coating with…
Abstract
Orally disintegrating granules (ODGs) are a pharmaceutical form commonly used for the administration of NSAIDs because of their easy assumption and fast dispersion. The development of ODGs is not easy for drugs like dexketoprofen trometamol (DXKT), which have a bitter and burning taste. In…

Addiction to Psychoactive Prescription Drugs: Can the Excipients of the Formulations Play a Role?
Abstract
In the development of drugs misuse and addiction, references are often made to the study of the API (active principle ingredient) as the main cause, which is certainly true, but there is a tendency to overlook the possible role of certain excipients which may be involved in the…
