Abstract

See full text

A mucoadhesive carried suitable for a therapeutic agent is disclosed. This carrier allows controlled release of the therapeutic agent via mucosal tissue. The mucoadhesive carrier comprises a Monolithic polymer matrix that is anhydrous but hydratable, and amorphous fumed silica. The silica enhances the mucoadhesive properties of the carrier. An optional water-insoluble barrier film or layer can be secured to the polymer matrix to provide a non-adhering face.
