Background: The vehicle in a local drug delivery (LDD) system plays a vital role in delivering the active drug component at the diseased site. Liquid/injectable platelet-rich fibrin (i-PRF), an autologous fibrin matrix, might be used as a vehicle to enmesh drugs and deliver locally at the periodontally diseased sites. This study evaluated the efficacy of the drug (ciprofloxacin [Cip])-loaded i-PRF as a LDD system adjunct to subgingival debridement in subjects with periodontal pockets.
