We developed dithranol nanosponge integrated Carbopol hydrogel (DTHNS-HG) as a novel perspective for psoriasis management. Dithranol was chosen as antipsoriatic moiety for this system. In this study, our objective was to fabricate and…

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common epithelial tumor of the oral cavity. Gingival tumors, a unique type of OSCC, account for 10% of these malignant tumors. The antineoplastic properties of statins, including pitavastatin…

Nanogels combine the properties of hydrogels and nanocarrier systems, resulting in very effective drug delivery systems, including for cutaneous applications. Cyclodextrins (CDs) have been utilised to enhance the nanogels’ loading ability…

The study aim was to develop an intravesical delivery system of quercetin for bladder cancer management in order to improve drug efficacy, attain a controlled release profile and extend the residence time inside the bladder. Either uncoated…

Drug delivery to the targeted site of action in the human body is always affected by the excipients used and almost in the same manner by some processing variables like changes in the compression force. The aim of this study was to…

The potential of the mucoadhesive film technology is hard to ignore, owing to perceived superior patient acceptability versus buccal tablets, and significant therapeutic opportunities compared to conventional oral drug delivery systems,…

This work investigates the synergistic potential of the nanostructured lipid carrier (NLC) gel of Ibrutinib with Curcumin as a repurposing strategy to treat psoriasis. In the present work, various components such as liquid lipid, solid…

Despite being recognized as the “gold standard” for treating azole-resistant vulvovaginal candidiasis, amphotericin B (AmB), an amphoteric molecule, has not been widely used due to serious issues with solubility and permeability. In light…

Abstract The 3–dimensional printing process (3DP) was patented in the 1980s, but the utilization of this process has expanded substantially over the past decade, to which the pharmaceutical industry is a major contributor. With increasing…

Drug delivery systems (DDS) for oral delivery of peptide drugs contain excipients that facilitate and enhance absorption. However, little knowledge exists on how DDS excipients such as permeation enhancers interact with the gastrointestinal…
