Drug-polymer filled micro-containers for oral delivery loaded using supercritical CO2 aided-impregnation
In this work we present an effective loading technique of micro-containers for oral drug delivery of a poorly water soluble drug in a solid dispersion with polymer. By combining inkjet printing and supercritical CO2 impregnation we load ketoprofen in a solid dispersion with poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) into cylindrical micro-containers providing unidirectional release.
Both the printing and the impregnation step can be tuned in order to control drug loading with accuracy in the range of micro-grams.
