Colon Specific Diloxanide Furoate Delivery using Microspheres (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783330039841)

The colon is attracting interest as a site where poorly absorbed drug molecule may have an improved bioavailability. This region of the colon is recognized as having a somewhat less hostile environment with less diversity and intensity of activity than the stomach and small intestine. Additionally, the colon has a longer retention time and appears highly responsive to agents that enhance the absorption of poorly absorbed drugs. Apart from retarding or targeting dosage forms, a reliable colonic drug delivery could also be an important starting position for the colonic absorption of per orally applied, undigested, unchanged and fully active peptide drugs.
