Microspheres are mainly free flowing powders consisting of proteins or synthetic polymers. Proteins or synthetic polymers are biodegradable in nature. Microspheres having a particle size less than 200 micrometer. Microspheres are novel drug delivery system which has several benefits over conventional multi dose therapy. There are various approaches in delivering a therapeutic agent to the specific targeted site in a sustained controlled release fashion. Microsphere is act as carriers for drugs. Microspheres received much attention for prolonged release as well as for targeting of anticancer drug to the tumour. In this drug delivery, drug dispersed throughout the particle i.e., the internal structure is a drug matrix and polymeric excipients. It is the reliable means delivery of the drug to the target site with specificity, if modified, and to maintain the desired concentration at the site of interest without untoward effects. In future microspheres will find an appropriate place in novel delivery by combining various new strategies, particularly in diseased cell sorting, diagnostic, gene and genetic materials, safe, targeted and effective in vivo delivery. The current aim of this review is to study the various aspects of microspheres drug delivery system including advantages, disadvantages, types of microspheres, methods of preparations, Evaluations and Applications of microspheres.

Vaginitis is a very common gynaecological problem in women of all age groups. Fluconazole chemically known as 2-(2, 4-diflurophenyl)-1, 3-bis (1H-1, 2, 4-triazole-1-yl)-2-propanol. Is a synthetic triazole derivative antifungal agent that is effective against a wide range of systemic and superficial fungal Infections. The mucoadhesive vaginal tablets were prepared by the direct compression method. FTIR had employed to study drug excipient incompatibility. The mucoadhesive vaginal tablet was evaluated for % swelling index, Muco-adhesive strength, drug content, % drug release, and Invitro Dissolution release. It was observed that more than 85% drug was released within 480 min in direct compression method formulations (FLZ1-FLZ9). Formulation FLZ3 that containing 6% of eudragit revealed maximum drug release profile up to 89.20±0.343% within 480 min, whereas formulation FLZ5 showed 87.20±0.765% drug release. The best formulation was compared with the marketed formulations for in-vitro drug release and showed almost similar drug release. Stability study shows no changes. This study may prove potential vaginal formulation of Fluconazole against bacterial vaginosis.

Oral modified or controlled dosage forms have always been validated to be a more effective opportunity than conventional or immediate release dosage forms. Controlled or modified drug transport systems provide several benefits of delivering a drug to the body in a specific way to reduce its undesirable side effects and maximize its profit. It also improves the therapeutic efficacy of the drug, decreases toxicity, and with better patient compliance and convenience. In the beyond few decades, microspheres have promised targeted or controlled delivery of drugs in the body which proved to be higher than the conventional drug delivery. It also used to deliver drugs, vaccines, antibiotics, and hormones in a controlled way. Interpenetrating polymer networks have gained a lot of interest in drug delivery systems due to their ease of modification during their synthesis and development state, which evolved novel physicochemical and mechanical properties within the formulation. Interpenetrating polymer network (IPN) systems use novel polymers which are synthesized through the interlacing of two independent polymers in a cross-linked form. The polymers used to formulate an IPN system are independently cross-linked or cross-linked to each other. The present review aims to summarize the IPNmicrospheres systems in terms of their merits, classification, mechanism, method of formulation, evaluation and recent advances in the research field of IPN microspheres.

This analysis focuses primarily on the several benefits of the buccal drug delivery system (BDDS) over the traditional and systemic formulation. Bypassing first pass metabolism, it aids in improving bioavailability. The formulation of this medication delivery system maintains contact with the mucosal surface, improving absorption and lengthening the resident time. Although not all medications can be administered with this approach, the majority of medications can. Because the degree of mucoadhesion is a crucial phenomenon for the buccal medication delivery system, bio adhesive polymers play a significant role in this drug delivery method. The paper discusses the advantages and disadvantages of the buccal drug delivery system, the anatomy of the oral mucosa, the mechanism of drug penetration, the use of natural polymers and permeation enhancers in the buccal drug delivery system. This evaluation also addresses currently on the market products used as buccal medication delivery systems and their potential future applications.

Now a day, phytochemicals are widely consideration for structure optimization programs which focuses on making more active and less toxic drug products. Psoriasis is an inflammatory, chronic, remitting and relapsing, genetically influenced skin disease. Variety of flavonoid structureswere used to find the potential molecules against the psoriasis. In this current study molecular docking studies were carried out to identify the flavonoids having good binding ability with the target protein of psoriasis. Docked ligands were subjected to identify the drug like properties using drug-likeness prediction. Findings suggested that 23 flavonoid structures may act against the psoriasis.

Colon-specific drug delivery systems (CDDS) are advantageous for the treatment of a range of local diseases such as ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, irritable bowel syndrome, chronic pancreatitis, and colonic cancer. Colon targeted drug delivery system can be utilized to deliver protein and peptide drugs as they that are known to degrade in the extreme gastric pH. These approaches involve the use of formulation components that interact with one or more aspects of gastrointestinal (GI) physiology, such as the variation in the pH along the GI tract, the occurrence of colonic microflora, and enzymes, to attain colon targeting. This article highlights the advantages, limitations and factors influencing colon-specific drug delivery. Further, the review gives information of various conventional, as well as relatively newer formulation approaches presently being utilized for the improvement of CDDS.

Inflammatory diseases are still one of the most important heath-problems in the world. Most of anti-inflammatory drugs such as non–steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) have number of adverse effects hence there are a need to develop safe and new anti-inflammatory formulation with minimum side effects. Present study focused on investigating and comparing anti-inflammatory potential of hydroalcoholic extracts of Tinospora cordifolia, Boerhavia diffusa, Tribulus terrestris and their combinations. Inhibition of heat induced HRBC membrane lysis was taken as a measure of the anti-inflammatory activity. The combination ratio of hydroalcoholic extracts of Tinospora cordifolia, Boerhavia diffusa, Tribulus terrestris (2:5:3) showed the most significant membrane stabilizing action on HRBC membrane as compare tohydroalcoholic extracts of individual drugs and theirother combinations. The present study revealed that the proper combination of Tinospora cordifolia, Boerhavia diffusa, Tribulus terrestris gives more effective anti-inflammatory activity than any of the individual drug.

Inhibition of heat induced HRBC membrane lysis was taken as a measure of the anti-inflammatory activity. The combination ratio of hydroalcoholic extracts of Tinospora cordifolia, Boerhavia diffusa, Tribulus terrestris (2:5:3) showed the most significant membrane stabilizing action on HRBC membrane as compare tohydroalcoholic extracts of individual drugs and theirother combinations. The present study revealed that the proper combination of Tinospora cordifolia, Boerhavia diffusa, Tribulus terrestris gives more effective anti-inflammatory activity than any of the individual drug.","PeriodicalId":8527,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Pharmacy and Technology","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87466066","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
