Nose-to Brain Delivery of Resveratrol, a Non-Invasive Method for the Treatment of Cerebral Ischemia
Abstract
Cerebral ischemia represents a particular condition among neurological diseases due to its high frequency, high associated mortality, and the permanent disability in patients that survive it. Numerous studies in animal models have demonstrated the protective properties of resveratrol…

A Comprehensive Review of Disintegrants: Backbone of disintegration
Abstract
Strong attractive bonding forces works among the particles of solid dosage forms such as mechanical, solid and intermolecular and bioavailability of solid dosage form is preferentially dependent on in vivo disintegration then dissolution. This review is focused for disintegrating agents,…

Formulation and Preparation of Losartan-Potassium-Loaded Controlled-Release Matrices Using Ethocel…
In the current study, matrices of losartan potassium were formulated with two different polymers (Ethocel 10 premium and Ethocel 10FP premium), along with a filler and a lubricant, at different drug-to-polymer w/w ratios (10:3, 10:4, and 10:5). The matrices were tested by the direct compression…

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…

Development of α-Cyclodextrin-Based Orally Disintegrating Tablets for 4-Phenylbutyrate
Despite major improvements brought about by the introduction of taste-masked formulations of 4-phenylbutyrate (PB), poor compliance remains a significant drawback to treatment for some pediatric and dysphagic patients with urea cycle disorders (UCDs). This study reports on the development of a…

Hydroxyapatite and pore former effects on the microstructure and mechanical strength of porous…
Porous hydroxyapatite (HAP) pellets were prepared by extrusion/spheronization/sintering and loaded with Lactobacillus (La-5). Micronized (PFm) or coarse size (PFc) microcrystalline cellulose were the pore formers, while HAP grades from Budenheim (Tri-cafos®) and Sigma-Aldrich with different specific…
