DEVELOPMENT AND CHARACTERIZATION OF CICLOPIROX OLAMINE LOADED BUCCOADHESIVE FILM FOR TREATMENT OF ORAL CANDIDIASIS

Journal Name:

Publication Year:

Abstract (2. Language): 
Buccal bioadhesive films, releasing drug in the oral cavity at a slow and predetermined rate, provide distinct advantages over traditional dosage forms. The study was aimed to prepare and evaluate buccal bioadhesive films of Ciclopirox Olamine (CPO) for oral candidiasis. The film was designed to release the drug at a concentration above the minimum inhibitory concentration for a prolonged period of time so as to reduce the frequency of administration of the available conventional dosage forms and increase patient compliance. The different proportions of various bioadhesive polymers were used for the preparation of films. The films were prepared by solvent casting method and evaluated for various physicochemical properties, bioadhesion, in vitro drug release and effectiveness against Candida albicans. In vitro drug release from the film was determined using a modified Franz diffusion cell while bioadhesiveness was evaluated with an in house developed device. Films containing HPMC K4MC (3%) /Na CMC (1%) was found to be the best with moderate swelling along with favorable bioadhesion force, residence time and in vitro drug release. The microbiological studies revealed that drug released from the film could inhibit the growth of C. albicans for 8 h. The drug release mechanism was found to follow anomalous diffusion. The results of short term stability study revealed stable characteristics of CPO buccal film.
