Design of High-Payload Ascorbyl Palmitate Nanosuspensions for Enhanced Skin Delivery.

A high-payload ascorbyl palmitate (AP) nanosuspension (NS) was designed to improve skin delivery following topical application. The AP-loaded NS systems were prepared using the bead-milling technique, and softly thickened into NS-loaded gel (NS-G) using hydrophilic polymers. The optimized NS-G system consisted of up to 75 mg/mL of AP, 0.

Effect of Dispersion Medium on Pharmacokinetic Profile of Rotigotine Crystalline Suspension following Subcutaneous Injection.

Rotigotine (RTG) is prescribed as a once-daily transdermal patch for managing early Parkinson’s disease (PD), which presents issues such as skin irritation and poor patient adherence. Therefore, the aims of the present study were to formulate aqueous and oily vehicle-based RTG crystalline suspensions for prolonged delivery and to compare their pharmacokinetic profiles and the local behaviors of RTG crystals. RTG-loaded aqueous (AS) and oil suspensions (OS) were fabricated using bead-milling technology (100 mg/mL as RTG), employing carboxymethyl cellulose and sesame oil as suspending agent and oily vehicle, respectively.

Design of Montelukast Nanocrystalline Suspension for Parenteral Prolonged Delivery.

Background: Montelukast (MTK), a representative leukotriene receptor antagonist, is currently being investigated as a potential candidate for treating Alzheimer's disease. For potent and effective dosing in elderly patients, a parenteral prolonged delivery system is favored, with improved medication adherence with reduced dosage frequency.

Purpose: This study aimed to design a nanocrystalline suspension (NS)-based MTK prolonged delivery system and evaluate its pharmacokinetics profile and local tolerability following subcutaneous administration.
