GELS as Pharmaceutical Form in Hospital Galenic Practice: Chemico-physical and Pharmaceutical Aspects

Published on: 10th February, 2025

This work aims to describe the chemical-physical properties of various GELS used as galenic forms in hospital pharmacy practice. After an overview of the excipients and method used three preparations are reported. LAT GEL is used as an anesthetic in an emergency (pediatry ) in treating little Traumatic lacerations of the skin and scalp, calcium gel is used as an antidote for fluoride acid burns, and Lidocaine viscose 2% oral gel is used in some pathological conditions like severe esophagitis in onco - hematological patients after radiotherapy or chemotherapy. The galenic role in the situation of some drug shortages was also analyzed.

Recent Development of Nanofibers in Medical/Pharmaceutical Sectors

Published on: 27th May, 2025

This article provides a comprehensive overview of the properties, applications, and fabrication techniques of nanofibers, which are characterized by their ultrafine diameters and unique features such as high surface area and aspect ratio. These attributes render nanofibers particularly advantageous for a wide range of applications, especially in the biomedical sector, encompassing areas like tissue engineering, drug delivery, and wound dressing. The article highlights various studies that illustrate the potential of nanofibers in addressing healthcare challenges, particularly their utilization in scaffolds for regenerative medicine and as carriers for controlled drug delivery. Furthermore, it discusses different preparation methods for nanofibers, including electrospinning and alternative techniques, while stressing the importance of polymer selection in achieving optimal drug-release properties. The article also delves into the application of nanofibers in tissue engineering, specifically for bone, cartilage, and vascular applications, and examines their emerging roles in organ-on-a-chip technology and contraceptive development. In conclusion, the article emphasizes the versatility and significance of nanofibers in advancing medical technologies and their potential to address contemporary health challenges. Collaborative efforts between material scientists and biologists are essential to foster interdisciplinary research aimed at improving electrospinning methodologies.
