Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract, which includes Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). These diseases have become important health problems. Medical therapy for IBD has advanced dramatically in the last decade with the introduction of targeted biologic therapies, the optimization of older therapies, including drugs such as immunomodulators and 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), and a better understanding of the mucosal immune system and the genetics involved in the pathogenesis of IBD. The goal of IBD therapy is to induce and maintain remission. Drug delivery to the appropriate site(s) along the gastrointestinal tract also has been a major challenge, and second-generation agents have been developed with improved drug delivery, increased efficacy, and decreased side effect The current treatment paradigm involves a step-up approach, moving to aggressive, powerful therapies only when milder therapies with fewer potential side effects fail or when patients declare themselves to have an aggressive disease. This review focuses on the, symptoms, diagnosis and current treatments for inflammatory bowel disease.Keywords

Novel drug delivery system assists to achieve better patient compliance. Fast dissolving tablets are one of them. FDT have benefits such as accurate dosing, easy portability and manufacturing, good physical and chemical stability and an ideal alternative for pediatric and geriatric patients. FDDT formulation combines the advantage of both liquid and conventional tablet formulation while also offering advantage over both traditional dosage forms. This review gives a view of advantages, limitations, need for formulating FDTS, Formulation factors, excipients used, and methodology and evaluation parameters.
Fast dissolving tablets (FDTs) can be prepared by different methods, such as direct compression, freeze-drying, spray drying, sublimation, wet granulation method4. The basic approach for the development of FDTs is the use of superdisintegrants. The aim of this study was to formulate FDTs with sufficient mechanical integrity and to achieve faster disintegration in the oral cavity without water. To achieve this goal, mannitol used as diluent as well as sweetening agent for the formulation of tablets. Attempts were made to enhance dissolution rate along with faster disintegration using superdisintegrants, like microcrystalline cellulose. Tramadol hydrochloride, a centrally acting synthetic opioid analgesic, was selected as the active pharmaceutical ingredient in the study.

The aim of this study was to improve the permeation of Diclofenac Sodium. Permeation studies were carried out in - vitro using cellophane membrane. Topical formulations of diclofenac sodium were prepared by using various polymers. Gel, cream and ointment of the drug were prepared with polymers and the formulations were subjected for evaluation. Gel formulations were containing carbopol 940, triethanolamine, and preservatives. Cream was formulated by using stearic acid, glycerin, lanolin and preservatives. Ointment was also formulated by using the ingredients cetostearyl alcohol, hard paraffin, white soft paraffin and wool fat. In-vitro permeation studies by using cellophane membrane in diffusion cell revealed better permeation characteristics of diclofenac sodium. These types of topical dosage forms could give sustained delivery of drug on to the skin, so they are interesting promises to improve skin absorption of non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and to prevent side effects associated. The Topical formulations are excellent in the percutaneous absorption of diclofenac or its salts and provide good properties upon use and superior medical effects of diclofenac or its salts.Keywords

Majority of Ayurvedic practitioners uses traditional herbal preparations for their treatment purposes made by them. So it is necessary to improve safety of herbal drugs by developing certain quality control parameters and by following the WHO guidelines for herbal medicines. Our adulteration. Now days, old methods are necessary but there are lots of limitations to these methods due to shortage of many drugs, unavailability or limited source, adulteration, lack of knowledge of drug identification and adverse effects of drugs etc. Standardization of herbal formulation is essential in order to assess the quality of drugs for therapeutic value. The World Health Organization (WHO) in 1999 has given a detail protocol for the standardization of herbal drugs comprising of a single content, but very little literature is available for the standardization of Shatavari Churna. Two marketed preparations were used for the study. Performed the various parameters including organoleptic characteristics and physicochemical parameters. The set parameters were found to be sufficient to standardize the Shatavari Churna.Keywords

The dry Emulsion formulation aim to improve the bioavailability of drug substances and reduce their side effects. Dry Emulsions are attractive because they are physically and microbiologically stable formulations. They represent a potential oral drug delivery system for lipophilic and low soluble drug substances. Dry emulsions are prepared by drying liquid o/w emulsions containing a solid carrier in the aqueous phase. The solid carrier provides the dry emulsions with bulk and mass. Dry emulsions can be prepared by spray drying, lyophilization and rotary evaporation. Unfortunately the dry emulsions were cohesive powders. The cohesiveness are reduced by addition of sucrose. For preparing dry Emulsions the organic fillers used are Lactose, Mannitol, Malto-dextrins.Keywords

The aim of the present research work was to investigate the potential of emulgel in enhancing the topical delivery of Itraconazole. Emulgel formulations of Itraconazole were prepared using two types of gelling agents namely: Carbopol 934 and Carbopol 940. The influence of the type of the gelling agent and the concentration of both the oil phase and emulsifying agent on the drug release from the prepared emulgel was investigated using a 23 factorial design. The prepared formulations were evaluated for their physical appearance, viscosity, drug release, globule size, skin irritation test, antifungal activity, transmission electron microscopy and stability. Commercially available Itraconazole cream was used for comparison. All the prepared emulgel showed acceptable physical properties concerning color, homogeneity, consistency, spreadability, and pH value. The antifungal activity and drug release were found to be higher for optimized formulation as compared to the marketed Itraconazole cream. The result of studied revealed that the optimized batch shows 95.08% release in 48 hours and stable for around three. The result of microbial assay compared with marketed product, the result shows46.6% inhibition of optimized batch where as marketed preparation shows only 32.3% inhibition. While result of skin irritation test shows no edema and erythema. No irritation was observed on the skin of the rabbits. Stability studies showed that the physical appearance, rheological study, in vitro drug release, and antifungal activity in all the prepared emulgel remained unchanged upon storage for 3 months. In general conclusion, it was suggested that the emulgel formulation succeed the drug release for sustained drug delivery in a controlled manner in comparison with cream.Keywords

Each year more than one million women are diagnosed with breast cancer worldwide over half of whom will die from the disease. Breast cancer is the most common cancer and the leading cause of cancer death for women. Extensive breast cancer screening programmes and the development of new treatments have improved the prognosis of breast cancer overall. However the average year survival rate for women with late stage or advanced breast cancer remains low. On average only 35% of women with advanced breast cancer are alive five years after diagnosis. A third of women are diagnosed with breast cancer at a late stage4 when the disease has a poor prognosis. Treatment options for breast cancer vary depending on the stage at which the cancer is diagnosed. Surgery and radiotherapy are commonly used to treat women with early stage breast cancer. Chemotherapy, hormonal and targeted therapies are frequently used to treat patients with more advanced forms of the disease.Keywords
