Glycerospanlastics: State-of-the-art two-in-one nano-vesicles for boosting ear drug delivery in otitis media treatment.

The purpose of this research was to design innovative nanovesicles for ototopical conveyance of triamcinolone acetonide (TA) for otitis media (OM) treatment via incorporating glycerol into nanospanlastics to be termed "Glycerospanlastics". The glycerospanlastics were formulated employing ethanol injection procedure, and central composite design (CCD) was harnessed for optimization of the vesicles. Various attributes of the nanovesicles, viz.

Travoprost Liquid Nanocrystals: An Innovative Armamentarium for Effective Glaucoma Therapy.

To date, the ophthalmic application of liquid crystalline nanostructures (LCNs) has not been thoroughly reconnoitered, yet they have been extensively used. LCNs are primarily made up of glyceryl monooleate (GMO) or phytantriol as a lipid, a stabilizing agent, and a penetration enhancer (PE). For optimization, the D-optimal design was exploited.

Engineered triamcinolone acetonide loaded glycerosomes as a novel ear delivery system for the treatment of otitis media.

Ear-oriented therapeutics vehiculation strategies are requisites for effective treatment of various otic ailments including otitis media (OM). Conquering minimal permeability of the intrinsic barrier of middle ear; intact tympanic membrane (TM) is still a defiance. In this study, the fabrication of glycerosomes was explored to boost triamcinolone acetonide (TA) delivery to the middle ear via the otic application to improve treatment of OM.

Delineating penetration enhancer-enriched liquid crystalline nanostructures as novel platforms for improved ophthalmic delivery.

Liquid crystalline nanostructures (LCNs), for instance cubosomes, have been widely used as a promising carrier for drug delivery through the last few years. To date, the ophthalmic application of these platforms was not well explored, and the effect of integrating penetration enhancers (PEs) into LCNs has not been investigated yet. Hence, the present work aimed coupling novel PEs into glyceryl monooleate-based cubosomes for ocular administration.

Effect of Tinidazole on Norfloxacin Disposition.

Co-administration of norfloxacin (NFX) and tinidazole (TNZ) has been used for the treatment of gastrointestinal and urinary tract infections. Concomitant oral administration of NFX with TNZ may affect NFX absorption and consequently its blood concentration and pharmacological effect. The present study was undertaken to investigate the effect of TNZ at the usual clinical dosage on the pharmacokinetics of NFX in healthy volunteers.

Single-dose linezolid pharmacokinetics in critically ill patients with impaired renal function especially chronic hemodialysis patients.

Background And Objective: Renal failure patients were treated with linezolid (LZD) for proven or suspected infections by multi-resistant Gram-positive cocci. The aim of this study was to determine if dose adjustment of LZD is needed as a function of renal impairment or not, especially that a significant component of LZD is eliminated unchanged in urine.

Methods: The single dose pharmacokinetics of LZD was investigated.
