Vaginal drug delivery is a promising route for the treatment and prevention of local and systemic diseases such as genital herpes or AIDS. Suitable excipients must be selected to optimize the residence time of formulations in vaginal mucosa and could be included in the formulation. Many polymers are excellent choices for the development of vaginal drug delivery systems due to their properties of mucoadhesion, biocompatibility and biodegradability. These polymers swell in the aqueous medium of...

This investigation presents a study on the effect of various polymers on gelling properties of tri-block (Pluronic®) copolymers and increasing the stability parameter of in situ gelling system by altering their composition. The tri-block copolymers finds their importance in fabrication of in situ gelling system for the delivery of various kinds of drugs, which can be administered by topical, ophthalmic or parenteral routes.
