Thin Film Drug Delivery Platform
MonoSol Rx has developed a thin film drug delivery technology that is more stable, durable and quicker dissolving than other conventional dosage forms. The thin film, which is similar in size, shape and thickness to a postage stamp, has the ability to carry very low doses of prescription products that are highly uniform, to larger doses up to 80mg. The technology enables buccal and sublingual delivery.
Thin film drug delivery technology possesses several key advantages over existing drug delivery forms:
- convenience, ease of dosing, portability and absence of the need for water or other liquids
- improved dosing accuracy relative to liquid formulations
- accurate administration of drugs for the pediatric, geriatric and neurodegenerative disease patients where proper dosing can be difficult
- easy alternative to patients with swallowing disorders and those who dislike taking other solid dosage forms such as tablets or capsules
