Mucoadhesive Tablets for Buccal Administration Containing Sodium Nimesulide [PDF]
The possibility of improving the flux of nimesulide across the buccal mucosa using the drug in the form of a sodium salt was investigated in our study. The salt form may increase to flux across buccal membrane, starting from a suspension; its lower permeation coefficient is compensated by a higher concentration gradient.

Microemulsion containing triamcinolone acetonide for buccal administration
The aim of the present work was to investigate the potential of microemulsions for the buccal administration of triamcinolone acetonide. Microemulsions were developed by the construction of pseudoternary phase diagrams, using the aqueous titration method.

MUCOADHESIVE POLYMERIC FILMS OF ACYCLOVIR PRONIOSOMES FOR BUCCAL ADMINISTRATION
Objective: The aim of the present work was to formulate and evaluate proniosomes of the poorly soluble drug, acyclovir incorporated in mucoadhesive polymeric films for improved buccal mucosal permeability of the drug while achieving prolonged release. Methods: Acyclovir was formulated as proniosomes using Span 60 and cholesterol.

PHARMACOKINETICS OF MORPHINE FOLLOWING ADMINISTRATION BY THE BUCCAL ROUTE
The pharmacokinetics of morphine administered via the buccal route as a controlled release formulation were assessed after the administration of three different doses and found to be linear in the dose range 10-30 mg. The plasma concentrations of morphine-3-glucuronide and morphine-6-glucuronide demonstrated considerable inter-subject variation and ...
