An Overview On Gastroretentive Drug Delivery System

Timucin Ugurlu

Abstract


Several approaches have been developed to modify drug release after administration via oral route in order to improve pharmacokinetic properties of the drug product in gastro-intestinal system (GIS).  Regarding bioavailability of the product, the most important point to be considered for development is the absorption of the drug substance in GI tract. However, absorption of drug substance is affected by various physiological factors such as inability of localization of drug delivery system in desired region of GIS and variable nature of gastric emptying process. This variation causes difficulties on prediction of bioavailability of the active moiety. Indeed, localization of drug delivery systems (DDS) at stomach and proximal part of small intestine provides higher bioavailability, therapeutic activity, less dose application, which leads to higher patient compliance, by the help of the longer contact time of GIS with drug delivery system. In the literature to achieve prolonged gastric retention time, several mechanisms have been developed successfully. Examples of which were floatation, mucoadhesion, sedimentation, expansion, or several delivery systems were developed such as modified shaped system and magnetic systems. In this paper, types of gastroretentive systems, advantages and/or disadvantages of these systems, and recent technologies on this area were reviewed.
