A REVIEW ON CONTROLLED RELEASE FLOATING DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEMS IN PHARMACEUTICAL FORMULATIONS

EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF PHARMACEUTICAL AND MEDICAL RESEARCH, 2019

Over the years there has been available a variety of drug modification and dosage forms, with which we have attempted to control the time course and specificity of drugs in the body maximize drug utilization, it is necessary to deliver the drug to its target tissue in the correct amount at the proper time to elicit the desired response. The most convenient method of controlled delivery of drug is undoubtedly oral, but oral controlled release of the drug for an extended period of time that exhibits more absorption in stomach and upper small intestine, has not been successful with conventional approaches. Consequently, most research efforts have been focused on platforms to extend gastric residence time (GRT) of these drugs. The novel design of Oral Controlled Drug Delivery System(OCDDS) should be primarily aimed at achieving a more predictable and increased bioavailability of drugs. However, the development process is precluded by several physiological difficulties, such as inability to restrain and localize controlled drug delivery systems (CDDS) within the desired regions of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and highly variable nature of the gastric emptying process. Thus, conventional OCDDS has not been suitable for a variety of important drugs which has any of above mentioned characteristics, which is mainly due to the relatively short transit time of the dosage form in the stomach and upper part of small intestine. The overall results are accompanied by lesser bioavailability. Furthermore, the relatively brief gastric emptying time in humans, which normally range from 2 - 3 hours through the major absorption zone (stomach or upper part of intestine), can result in incomplete drug release from the dosage form leading to diminished efficacy of the administered dose. Thus, control of placement of drug delivery system in a specific region of the GI tract offers numerous advantages. From the formulation and technological point of view, the Floating Drug Delivery System (FDDS) is considerably an easy and logical approach in the development of gastro retentive dosage forms. Hence in the present study, the formulation of Gastro Retentive Dosage Forms (GRDFs) is done by FDDS.

Review on Floating Drug Delivery Systems: An Approach to Oral Controlled Drug Delivery via Gastric Retention

2011

Controlled release (CR) dosage forms have been extensively used to improve therapy with many important drugs. Several approaches are currently utilized in prolongation of gastric residence time, including floating drug delivery system, swelling and expanding system, polymeric bioadhesive system, modified shape system, high density system and other delayed gastric emptying devices. However, the development processes are faced with several physiological difficulties such as the inability to restrain and localize the system within the desired region of the gastrointestinal tract and the highly variable nature of the gastric emptying process. On the other hand, incorporation of the drug in a controlled release gastroretentive dosage forms (CR-GRDF) which can remain in the gastric region for several hours would significantly prolong the gastric residence time of drugs and improve bioavailability, reduce drug waste, and enhance the solubility of drugs that are less soluble in high pH environment. Gastroretention would also facilitate local drug delivery to the stomach and proximal small intestine. Thus, gastroretention could help to provide greater availability of new products and consequently improved therapeutic activity and substantial benefits to patients. The purpose of this paper is to review the recent literature and current technology used in the development of gastroretentive dosage forms.

CRITICAL REVIEW IN PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES A REVIEW: FLOATING DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEM (FDDS

Current pharmaceutical scenario focuses on the formulation of floating drug delivery system (FDDS). Floating drug delivery systems are low density systems that float over the gastric contents and remain buoyant in the stomach for a prolonged period of time without affecting the gastric emptying rate. They provide an efficient means for improving the drug bioavailability; reducing drug wastage and better patient compliance by increasing the gastric residence time and provide controlled drug delivery. The gastric emptying of a dosage form is a complex process and one of the biggest hindrance in the better absorption and increases bioavailability of oral drug delivery system. Floating drug delivery systems (FDDS) are a convenient approach to overcome this variability by increasing the gastric retention time of the drug delivery systems. FDDS are of great interest for drugs that are locally active and narrow absorption window in stomach or upper small intestine, unstable in the intestinal environment and also exhibit low solubility at high pH values. The aim of writing this review on floating drug delivery systems is to compile the current literature with important focus on the principal mechanism of floatation to attain gastric retention. The review briefly describes the floating mechanism, types of floating system, advantages, limitation, factors affecting floating system, drug candidates suitable for floating, evaluation parameters and application of the system.
