Design and Characterization of Agarose/HPMC Buccal Films Bearing Ondansetron HCl In Vitro and In Vivo: Enhancement Using Iontophoretic and Chemical Approaches

Umair Jillani et al.

Summary: The study aimed to design and characterize mucoadhesive buccal films containing ondansetron hydrochloride (OND) using agarose (AG), hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC), and glycerol. The buccal delivery of OND was enhanced by iontophoresis and chemical penetration enhancers. The effects of different formulation components on various parameters and drug release were investigated. The results showed a linear release profile and the relationship between polymer content and drug release. Physicochemical interactions were analyzed and no chemical interactions were found. Permeation studies revealed enhanced flux with iontophoresis and chemical enhancers. Pharmacokinetic and pharmacological studies in animals showed improved bioavailability and reduced emesis events. Histopathological examinations demonstrated no severe negative effects.
