description | Purpose: The aim of this study was to prepare the optimized oral paste formulation of
Triamcinolone acetonide intended to be used in aphtous stomatitis.
Methods: Plastibases were prepared using mineral oil and polyethylene (95:5). Oral paste
formulations were prepared with different mixtures of three hydrocolloids solids, including
gelatin, pectin and sodium carboxymethylcellulose, with different ratios, as well as
Plastibase. Long-term and short-term stability of prepared formulations were studied in the
case of color and consistency of pastes. Franz diffusion cell and dialysis membrane were
employed for release study. Release data were fitted in the kinetic models to find out the
mechanism of drug release.
Results: Formulation containing 60% plastibase, 3.3% pectin, 6.6% gelatin and 30%
carboxymethylcellulose showed desired durability of adhesion, spreadability and rheology
property in healthy volunteers and was compared with reference formulation (Adcortyl®) in
the case of release profile. Although, optimized formulation and Adcortyl followed the
Higuchi and first order release kinetics respectively, optimized formulation showed similar
release profile to reference formulation.
Conclusion: Optimized oral paste formulation of Triamcinolone Acetonide showed similar
characteristics with reference formulation and could be used as an effective drug delivery
system for the treatment of recurrent aphthous stomatitis. |
