MUCOADHESIVE BUCCAL DELIVERY OF DRUGS - CHALLENGES AND PRESENT ASPECTS

PAGE 7-20

Buccal delivery is an interesting route of delivery owing to the easy administration of drugs. Buccal delivery releases the drug into the oral cavity and promotes absorption through the oral mucosa and transmucosa to achieve local and systemic actions. This route of delivery can be successfully u...

FORMULATION DESIGN AND OPTIMIZATION OF FAST DISINTEGRATING TABLETS OF VALSARTAN: EFFECT OF SUPERDISINTEGRANTS

PAGE 39-48

Oral disintegrating tablets are a novel attractive dosage form in which the tablet disintegrates or dissolves in the buccal cavity within seconds without the use of water. The major drawback in designing this dosage form is unpleasant taste and low solubility of active entity. Valsartan is an ant...

IN-SILICO AND IN VITRO ASSESSMENT OF SYNTHESIZED DIAZENYLSULFONAMIDES AS APOPTOSIS INDUCERS AND RADICAL SCAVENGERS

PAGE 49-59

A series of eight quinoline-thiazole hybrid-bearing diazenylsulfonamides, 4a-4h, were synthesized and characterized by UV-Vis, FT/IR, 1H NMR and lC-MS. These compounds were formed when two prepared intermediate precursors of Schiff-base compounds, (E)-N-((2-chloroquinolin-3-yl)methylene)-4phenylt...
