Mucoadhesive gels for buccal administration of chloexidine digluconate
2005Chlorhexidine (CHX) is a bis-bis-guanide widely used to treat skin and mucosa infections, efficient against a wide range of microbial species. The aim of this work was to design and evaluate gels containing CHX associated to mucoadhesive and swelling agents, such as CMC, HPMC, HPC and Poloxamer, to control both the residence time in the oral cavity and
