Systemic Delivery of Insulin via an Enhancer-Free Ocular Device

Abstract: Sodium insulin and zinc insulin ocular devices are developed for the systemic delivery of insulin. The devices consist of Gelfoam (absorbable gelatin sponge, USP) as an insulin carrier and do not contain any surfactant or absorption enhancer. Sodium insulin was dissolved in either distilled water, 30% ethanol, or 10% acetic acid for either eyedrop or device preparations. Because of its low solubility in water and aqueous ethanol solution, zinc insulin was dissolved in 10% acetic acid-water solution for eye dev… Show more

“…Commercially available Humulin R was selected as another source of zinc insulin and was used as an eyedrop as well as one device preparation. In this case, only 10% acetic acid solution-treated insulin devices were found to produce significant blood glucose reduction [Lee et al, 1997]. Morgan and Huntzicker [1996] administered regular porcine insulin as eye drops to healthy, euglycemic dogs.…”
