    The Review of scientific instruments·2016

    Area of Science:

    • Pharmacology
    • Drug Development
    • Clinical Pharmacy

    Background:

    • Patient adherence to medication is influenced by dosage form preferences.
    • Multiple drug formulations enhance clinical utility, offering flexibility and convenience.
    • Piroxicam, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), has expanded its dosage form offerings beyond the traditional capsule.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the various available and developing dosage forms of piroxicam.
    • To highlight the clinical utility and patient acceptance of these diverse formulations.
    • To present pharmacokinetic and clinical data supporting the efficacy and toleration of new piroxicam dosage forms.

    Main Methods:

    • Pharmacokinetic and bioequivalence studies comparing piroxicam suppository to capsule.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Clinical efficacy and toleration trials of piroxicam suppository and dispersible tablet.
  • Evaluation of piroxicam topical gel in animal models and human clinical trials for osteoarthritis.

    • Main Results:

    • The 20-mg piroxicam suppository is bioequivalent, equally effective, and well-tolerated compared to the 20-mg capsule.
    • Piroxicam dispersible tablet is well-tolerated and equally effective as the capsule.
    • Piroxicam topical gel (0.5%) demonstrated significant anti-inflammatory activity and superior efficacy over placebo in knee osteoarthritis patients.

    Conclusions:

    • New piroxicam dosage forms (suppository, dispersible tablet, topical gel, parenteral) increase clinical utility and patient convenience.
    • These alternative formulations offer comparable efficacy and toleration to the oral capsule.
    • All piroxicam formulations allow for convenient once-daily administration, improving patient compliance.
