INTRODUCTION:

The fundamental idea behind a drug-delivery system is the practice of delivering medicinal substances at a set pace to the sick spot in people or animals while also lowering the drug's concentration in the surrounding tissues. Localized pharmacological action decreases systemic harmful effects on tissues and increases the drug's effectiveness. The "magic bullet" is the term given to Paul Ehrlich's 1909 proposal for targeted delivery that goes straight to the afflicted cell without harming healthy cells. Numerous drug carrier methods have since been developed.1

 

 

The development of nanocarriers for various diseases has shown to be a successful application of nanotechnology. Because of issues with solubility, absorption, distribution, or transport across biological membranes, conventional therapies are inherently doomed to fail. However, in order to accomplish the required results, nanocarriers can be engineered to allow for manipulative targeting, optimum distribution, and drug release. To improve solubility and dissolving rate, a number of nanotechnology techniques were used.2 Drugs can be delivered continuously, precisely, and under control using niosome-based drug delivery systems, which are vasicular and innovative. Although liposomes were the first vesicular drug delivery technology, they have a number of drawbacks, including toxicity, high cost, and problems with stability at varying pH levels.3

 

The non-ionic surfactant and cholesterol that make up niosomal-based drug delivery systems are known for their excellent stability and robust capacity to increase drug bioavailability. They also function as skin penetration enhancers. Niosomes are thought to be suitable delivery systems for anti-infective and anti-cancer medications. Additionally, they reduce drug toxicity, enhance drug therapeutic indices, enhance oral bioavailability of poorly absorbed medications, and enhance targeted drug delivery. These results are in line with other published investigations on niosomal formulations of various therapeutic agents that shown a progressive rise in drug activity as a result of controlled release, particularly in cases where the drug that is entrapped is hydrophilic. Since nanoparticles' size and surface characteristics allow them to deeply penetrate the human body, the use of nanovesicles as niosomes in muco-adhesive films improves drug absorption, reduces skin irritation, and circumvents the first-pass effect.4

 

The buccal delivery system increases bioavailability, niosomes solve the buccal delivery issue, and niosomes are crucial for increasing the bioavailability of medications with low bioavailability as well as the solubility and permeability of lipophilic pharmaceuticals and using stable dosage forms.

 

Niosomes:

The vascular drug delivery system uses niosomes, which are non-ionic surfactant vesicles made by hydrating a combination of non-ionic surfactants and cholesterol. Both lipophilic and amphiphilic medications can be transported by it. The niosome's particle size falls between 10 and 1000nm.5

 

Structure of Niosomes:

The amphiphilic characteristic of niosomes allows for the incorporation of both hydrophilic and hydrophobic medications. Hydrophilic pharmaceuticals can be trapped in the core cavity of niosomes, while hydrophobic drugs can be trapped in the non-polar area of the bilayer.6 A non-ionic surfactant, cholesterol, and diethyl ether are combined to generate the multilamellar or unilamellar structure of niosomes. The resulting hydration in aqueous media aids in vesicle stabilization.7,8

 

Figure 1: Structure of Niosomes.9

 

Methods for preparation of niosomes:

The literature has detailed several techniques for niosome preparation. These include the following techniques: reverse-phase evaporation, trans membrane pH gradient drug uptake, bubble method, microfluidization, thin-film hydration,12 and ether injection. Niosomes of various sizes and size distributions could emerge as a result of each technique. 13,14,15 A thin layer of solid mixture is left on the flask wall after surfactant and cholesterol are dissolved in a volatile organic solvent, such as diethyl ether, chloroform, or methanol, in a rotary evaporator. This process is typically used in the hand shaking method. With mild stirring, the drug-containing aqueous phase is added to the dry layer at room temperature.16

 

Advantages:

1.     Less toxic than liposomes.

2.     Used to encapsulate both hydrophilic as well as hydrophobic drugs.

3.     Improve bioavailability.

4.     Niosomes act as targeted, controlled as well as sustained delivery of a drug.

5.     More stable as compared to convestional dosages delivary system.

6.     Reduction in dose.

7.     Improved therapeutic performance of dose.

8.     Niosomes are osmotically active, chemically stable and have long storage time compared to liposomes;15,17

 

Disadvantage:

1.     Aggregation.

2.     Leakage of entrapped drug.

3.     Stability issue in aqueous niosomes suspension.15,18,19

 

Buccal Drug Delivary System:

The process of administering a medication to the systemic circulation through the buccal mucosa, or cheek lining, is known as buccal delivery. Oral administration of these medicines is associated with issues such inadequate absorption and breakdown.18 The buccal route of drug delivery has drawn a lot of interest in an effort to get around these challenges and deliver proteins and peptides successfully. Compared to the sublingual mucosa, the buccal mucosa is the preferable area for systemic transmucosal medication administration. One of the reasons is that formulations designed for continuous release action are more suited for buccal mucosa since it is less permeable and cannot induce a rapid commencement of absorption. Additionally, the buccal mucosa is easily accessible and comparatively immobile.20


 

Compositions:

 


Advantages:

1.     Relatively large surface area

2.     Accessibility

3.     Rich blood Supply

4.     Prolonged retention

5.     It offers a passive system of drug absorption and does not require any activation.

6.     High patient acceptance compared to other non-oral routes of drug administration

7.     Bypass the first-pass effect and non-exposure of the drugs to the gastrointestinal fluids.20,21

 

Disadvantages:

1.     Retard the rate and extent of drug absorption through the mucosa.

2.     Continuous secretion of the saliva leads to subsequent dilution of the drug.21

Novel buccal medication delivery methods include tablets, film/patches, gel, microparticles, nanoparticles, wafers, and lozenges. 22, 23

 

Niosome Buccal Film Loaded:

Buccal Film:

Two laminates make up buccal patches or film, which are cut into the necessary oval shape after an impermeable backing sheet is coated with an aqueous solution of the adhesive polymer. "Zilactin" is a new mucosal adhesive film made of three organic acids and an alcoholic HPC solution. Even when it is challenged with fluids, the film that is placed to the oral mucosa can stay in place for at least 12 hours.

Strengths and Limitations of Niosomes in Drug Delivery:

The chemical stability of niosomes is one of their most significant advantages over liposomes. Niosomes have a longer shelf life than liposomes and are more opposite to oxidation or chemical degradation. The biodegradable, biocompatible, and nonimmunogenic surfactants are use in the synthesis of niosomes. There are no requirements for surfactant handling or storage conditions. Furthermore, niosome composition, size, lamellarity, stability, and surface charge can be regulated by the type of manufacturing process, suspension concentration, cholesterol content, surfactant, and surface charge additions. However, niosomes have issues with physical stability. Niosomes in dispersion are susceptible to agglomeration, fusion, drug leakage, and hydrolysis of encapsulated medications while being stored. Moreover, niosome sterilization requires a lot of work. Niosomes should not be subjected to membrane filtration or heat sterilization. Therefore, more study is required in these areas to create commercially available niosomal preparations.27

 

Mucoadhesive polymers have been used into formulations for the production of buccal dosage forms in order to improve buccal bioavailability and obtain longer contact times. Hydrophilic polymers, particularly cationic ones, were used in early mucoadhesion methods because they have a favorable electrostatic interaction with the anionic groups of mucin.28

 

Niosomal Buccal Film a Great Potential System for Oral Mucosal Drug Delivery:

Nanoparticles have been studied for a variety of pharmaceutical applications because of their capacity to prevent enzymatic drug degradation, regulate drug release, and improve drug penetration and absorption at certain membrane locations, all of which boost bioavailability.29

 

When medications penetrate membranes and get to the target location in sufficient concentration to produce a pharmacodynamic effect, a therapeutic effect is achieved. Drugs must diffuse through the mucous layer and reach the buccal epithelium in order to be absorbed when administered buccal. Because of their poor water solubility, medicines with higher log P values are less absorbed through the oral mucosa, while small and lipophilic medications (log P 1.6-3.3) are often readily absorbed. Through the transcellular pathway, lipophilic small medicines penetrate the oral mucosa. Because the intercellular lipids are amphiphilic, the hydrophilic big molecules prefer to penetrate through the paracellular channel because they are less effective through the oral mucosa (non-keratinized buccal mucosa and sublingual mucosa). Additionally, the pH of saliva influences the charge and hydrophilic/hydrophobic character of molecules, thereby impeding their absorption.30

In the upcoming decades, niosomes, a revolutionary medication delivery mechanism, have the potential to completely transform medical care. This is a thorough examination of their prospects for the future:

 

1.     Enhanced Targeting and Reduced Side Effects: Compared to traditional medication delivery techniques, niosomes provide a number of advantages. Targeted distribution to particular organs or tissues is made possible by their capacity to encapsulate a variety of medications, including poisonous, sensitive, and degradable ones. This lessens adverse effects on healthy cells and systemic exposure. It is anticipated that this focused strategy will be especially helpful in cancer treatment, as conventional methods frequently result in extensive harm.

 

2.     Diverse Drug Encapsulation: Niosomes have the unusual capacity to encapsulate medications that are hydrophilic or hydrophobic. Because of their adaptability, they can administer a wide range of therapeutic substances, increasing their potential uses in a number of medical domains.31

 

3.     Advanced Functionality: Niosomes can be engineered to react to particular environmental stimuli, including pH variations. This increases therapeutic efficacy and reduces off-target effects by enabling regulated drug release at the target site. Niosomes made for gastrointestinal delivery, for example, might be engineered to release their payload only once they have reached the small intestine's somewhat alkaline environment.

 

4.     Broad Spectrum of Applications: Niosomes have the potential to transform the treatment of numerous illnesses in addition to cancer treatments. They are perfect for delivering medications because of their controlled drug release and capacity to target particular organs. Infectious illnesses Neurodegenerative diseases Autoimmune conditions Gene therapy.32

 

One effective way to get around the problems with buccal drug delivery is to use nanoparticles as drug carriers. Since the nanoparticles stick to the buccal mucosa, extending the buccal residence and contact time with the mucosa, the nanocarriers may actually offer a number of benefits, including an increase in the drug's diffusion rate across the mucus layer, protection from degradation, and prevention of drug dilution in saliva. Furthermore, nanocarriers have a regulated and/or sustained drug release profile, which reduces the number of doses and increases patient compliance by avoiding drug elimination and oral clearance.33, 34

 

These lipid nanoparticles have the potential to be effective topical treatments at the oral mucosa as nanocarriers. Because of their nanometric sizes, high-contact surfaces, capacity to encapsulate hydrophobic medications, and strong physicochemical stability, they can enhance penetration. Additionally, they are biocompatible and biodegradable, which allows for long-lasting therapeutic effects. The high fluidity of colloidal systems, however, may be a drawback when it comes to maintaining contact at a particular location (like the oral mucosa). To get over this possible restriction and improve viscosity, stiffness, and stability, the right matrices can be added, 35 By incorporating these colloidal dispersions into various (bio) polymeric matrices, pharmaceutical forms such as films, hydrogels, sponges, and patches have been prepared that can function as intelligent drug delivary system. 36

 

The term "niosomal buccal film" refers to novel technologies and formulations intended to administer medications through the mouth mucosa, avoiding gastrointestinal absorption, 37
