Carmellose Mucoadhesive Oral Films Containing Vermiculite/Chlorhexidine Nanocomposites as Innovative Biomaterials for Treatment of Oral Infections

Abstract: Infectious stomatitis represents the most common oral cavity ailments. Current therapy is insufficiently effective because of the short residence time of topical liquid or semisolid medical formulations. An innovative application form based on bioadhesive polymers featuring prolonged residence time on the oral mucosa may be a solution to this challenge. This formulation consists of a mucoadhesive oral film with incorporated nanocomposite biomaterial that is able to release the drug directly at the target area.… Show more

“…A miconazole mucoadhesive tablet has been reported, which had in vitro antifungal activity against many Candida species. With a once-daily application of the tablet containing 50 mg of miconazole of 50 mg, it could maintain high levels of salivary miconazole concentrations effectively treat pseudomembranous candidiasis [190]. Other nano-scaled copolymers, lipid, or chitosan-based DDS have also been investigated (Figure 6a-c).…”

“…Notably, a smaller proportion of the studies (19.4%) assessed the composites using in vitro models based on cytotoxicity assays, adhesion ability and cellular absorption, and also antimicrobial assessment (4,13,35,37,56,62,74).…”

“…The main drugs carried in the articles analysed were non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (46.1%) (24,39,40,(66)(67)(68), antimicrobial (25.6%) (21,34,65,69,74) and chemotherapeutic agents (10.3%) (13,14). This distribution can be explained by the adverse events associated with the use of these active principles, whether due to the reduction in gastric protection resulting from prolonged use of the anti-inflammatory drugs and analgesics, or to the intrinsic toxicity of chemotherapeutic agents and some antimicrobials associated with the risk of resistance (75,76).…”

“…Usually, the films consist of two layers, one of which is adhesive and the second is a covering (backing) layer protecting the first one against moisture and providing the film with mechanical durability . The adhesive layer may also contain a sorbent carrying an active agent , or, as in this study, the film can be used as a patch covering a lesion on which an active agent was applied.…”
