Oral Dispersible Films, Novel Technology for the Delivery of Drugs

Disadvantages: * It is difficult to incorporate high dose. * Only limited amount of drug can be incorporated. * Drug penetration enhancement is more. * Uniformity of dose is a challenge. * The techniques like iontophoresis can't be applied in order to improve the bioavailability, as well as penetration for poorly absorbed drugs. Because they may cause damage to oral mucosa9. [...]the solution is casted on the Petri plate and dried in air oven at 40-50°C. Then film is peeled and cut. [...]the solid dispersions are shaped in to films by means of dyes. Since it has fast disintegration and fast dissolution properties associated with better safety and efficacy.
