Oromucosal drug delivery is necessary when a local effect in the oral cavity is required. Bioadhesive formulations should be advantageous because a larger fraction of the active principal is retained at the site of action allowing for an enhanced and prolonged effect. Despite a variety of mucoadhesion test systems being described in literature, none of these in-vitro tests does relate to physiological conditions in the oral cavity and suites for the testing of complete dosage forms, e.g....

Abstract This study involves the development of thin oral solvent cast films for the potential delivery of the proton pump inhibitor, omeprazole (OME) via the buccal mucosa for paediatric patients. OME containing films were prepared from ethanolic gels (1% w/w) of metolose (MET) with polyethylene glycol (PEG 400) (0.5% w/w) as plasticiser, and l-arg (0.2% w/w) as a stabilizer and dried in an oven at 40 °C. The blank and drug loaded films were divided into two groups, one group was subjected to...
