Background: Oxycellulose (OC) is biodegradable and bioabsorbable cellulose derivative used in medicine to support hemostasis and tissue healing. Recently, its antimicrobial and immunomodulating properties, as well as its potential in modern therapeutic systems as release modifying excipient, drug carrier, and/or mucoadhesive polymer, are widely discussed. Method: To study its last-mentioned characteristics, directly compressed tablets containing 5 mg of cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) as a model drug and 90 mg of mucoadhesive polymer [oxycellulose sodium (NaOC) alone or in a combination with one of five widely used mucoadhesive polymers] were prepared to ensure 8 hours prolonged release of CPC. Physicochemical and mucoadhesive properties of prepared tablets were evaluated. Results: Based on obtained results, tablets containing OC in combination with hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (Methocel (R) K100LV) or carboxymethylcellulose sodium showed the best quality parameters (friability < 0.04%, tablet thickness < 2.17 mm, tablet hardness > 85 N, residence time > 256 minutes, mucoadhesive strength > 3.45 mN/mm(2)) and dissolution profiles (more than 81% of CPC released within 8 hours). Conclusion: NaOC embodies excellent compressing, mechanical, and mucoadhesive properties; however, formulation with higher content of NaOC only showed shorter adhesion time (107 +/- 7 minutes) and faster drug release (93.66% of CPC released within 2 hours), because of its good solubility in aqueous media.
