Resumen

Este resumen es generado por máquina.

Los veterinarios ahora pueden crear medicamentos personalizados impresos en 3D para mascotas usando mantequilla de maní. Este enfoque innovador garantiza una dosificación precisa y una administración aceptable para terapias veterinarias personalizadas.

Área De La Ciencia

  • Medicina Veterinaria
  • Ciencias farmacéuticas
  • Tecnología de impresión 3D

Sus Antecedentes

  • La creciente demanda de terapias veterinarias personalizadas requiere formas de dosificación adaptadas a los animales de compañía.
  • La disponibilidad limitada de formulaciones ajustadas al peso, apetecibles y flexibles conduce al uso de medicamentos fuera de la etiqueta y a riesgos de composición manual.
  • Las prácticas actuales plantean desafíos para lograr una dosificación precisa y evitar la toxicidad de los excipientes en medicina veterinaria.

Objetivo Del Estudio

  • Desarrollar una plataforma de composición veterinaria bajo demanda utilizando la impresión 3D por extrusión semi-sólida (SSE).
  • Utilizar la mantequilla de maní como excipiente preferido por la especie y compatible con los medicamentos para crear formulaciones veterinarias apetecibles.
  • Producir dosis ajustables y unidades de medicación masticables para animales de compañía.

Principales Métodos

  • Impresión 3D por extrusión semi-sólida (SSE) para el compuesto veterinario bajo demanda.
  • Se ha formulado una matriz mejorada con almidón utilizando mantequilla de maní como excipiente principal.
  • Incorporó prednisolona (PRE) en la matriz para crear unidades masticables con dosis ajustables.

Principales Resultados

  • Unidades masticables impresas con éxito con características de extrusión robustas y una excelente linealidad de dosis (R2 > 0,99).
  • Se consigue una liberación inmediata del fármaco y propiedades mecánicas adecuadas para la ingesta oral voluntaria.
  • Estabilidad demostrada de las formulaciones impresas durante 14 días en condiciones de refrigeración.

Conclusiones

  • Se introdujo una plataforma de impresión 3D escalable para mejorar la atención farmacológica veterinaria.
  • Valida el uso de formulaciones a base de mantequilla de maní para la administración de medicamentos personalizados en animales de compañía.
  • Destacó el potencial de esta tecnología para proporcionar una dosificación precisa, agradable y flexible para tratamientos veterinarios crónicos.

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine 02:50

5.1K

Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...

Drug Dosage Regimen: Overview 01:15

3.8K

A drug dosage regimen describes the specific instructions and schedule for administering a drug to a patient. It considers factors such as drug dosage, frequency, route of administration, and duration of treatment. Designing an appropriate dosage regimen for a patient aims to achieve a target drug concentration at the site of action.
Typically, the starting dose and dosing interval are guided by the manufacturer's recommendations based on clinical trials conducted during and after drug...

Prescription drugs require a prescription from a medical practitioner and can only be obtained from a pharmacy. They have many applications, including treating pain, anxiety, and hypertension.
The misuse and addiction to prescription drugs is a growing problem that can affect people of all age groups, specifically teenagers. This can happen when prescription medications are used in ways not intended by the prescriber, such as taking someone else's prescription or using medication for...

Biopharmaceutics and Pharmacokinetics: Overview 01:28

Understanding drugs, drug products, and their performance in pharmaceutical science is pivotal. Drugs, whether simple molecules or complex compounds, are designed to interact with the body's biological systems to diagnose, treat, or prevent diseases. Drug products include various delivery systems such as tablets, capsules, injections, and inhalers. The performance of these drug products is gauged by their ability to deliver the active ingredient to the desired site of action at the...

Drug Delivery: Parenteral Route 01:29

The parenteral route is a critical method of drug administration. It delivers compounds directly into the systemic circulation and bypasses the gastrointestinal tract. This approach is particularly advantageous for drugs that exhibit poor absorption or instability when administered orally.
There are three primary parenteral routes: intravenous (IV), intramuscular (IM), and subcutaneous (SC). The IV route introduces the drug directly into the bloodstream, ensuring immediate action. The IM route...

Model Approaches for Pharmacokinetic Data: Compartment Models 01:14

198

Compartmental analysis is a widely adopted approach to characterizing drug pharmacokinetics. It uses compartment models that conceptualize the body as a collection of reversibly communicating compartments, each representing a group of tissues exhibiting similar drug distribution characteristics. The movement rate of the drug between these compartments is typically described by first-order kinetics.
Two primary types of compartment models are recognized: mammillary and catenary. The more...
