Despite the abundant use of polyethylene oxides (PEOs) and their integration as an excipient in numerous pharmaceutical products, there have been no previous reports of applying this important thermoplastic polymer species alone to fused…

Artesunate is a poorly soluble drug and liable to aqueous hydrolysis. This study aims to formulate Artesunate as an immediate release tablet through optimization of the melt granulation technique to improve the dissolution of the drug.…

Recently, various additive manufacturing (3D printing) approaches have been employed to fabricate dressings such as film scaffolds that possess well-defined architecture and orientation at the micro level. In this study, crosslinked…

Due to the additional particle coalescence in the coating, changes in the dissolution profile occur over time in the formulations coated by aqueous ethylcellulose latex. Dry thermal treatment (DT) of the coating can be used as a prevention…

Development of new product design principles is crucial for obtaining pharmaceutical products with controlled functionality. Four different molds were designed using a computer-aided design (CAD) software and 3D printed with polylactic acid…

Designing nanomaterials to release their drug pay-load upon exposure to an exogenous trigger can help to direct drug delivery, but how the triggered release, which often modifies the nanomaterial properties, influences the biological fate…

Oral drug delivery technology is mainly provided in the form of solid oral dosage forms (SODF) that have to be swallowed intact and move throughout the oro-esophageal system to release the drug content in the stomach or intestine. As there…

Choice of carrier can have a significant impact on the capsule filling process as well as the performance of the DPI formulation. May 02, 2018 by Adeline Siew, PhD Pharmaceutical Technology, Volume 42, Issue 5, pg 30–33 The use of…
