Dissolving microneedle patches offer promise as a simple, minimally invasive method of drug and vaccine delivery to the skin that avoids the need for hypodermic needles. However, it can be difficult to control the amount and localization of drug within microneedles. In this study, we developed novel
Sustained release capsule formulations based on three components, drug, water-soluble polymer, and water-insoluble fatty acid, were developed. Theophylline, acetaminophen, and glipizide, representing a wide spectrum of aqueous solubility, were used as model drugs. Povidone and hydroxypropyl cellulos
