As for many medicines, there is a lack of paediatric dosage forms adequate for a child’s age; it is a prevailing practice to use off label formulations. Children need balanced and personalized treatment, patient-friendly preparations, as well as therapy that facilitates dosing and thus eliminates frequent drug administration, which can be ensured by modified release (MR) forms. MR formulations are commonly used in adult therapy, while rarely available for children. The aim of this article is to elucidate how to modify drug release in paediatric oral dosage forms, discuss the already accessible technologies and to introduce novel approaches of manufacturing with regard to paediatric population. Keywords: modified release; drug delivery; paediatric formulation development; paediatric dosage forms 1. Introduction Creating an appropriate dosage form designed exactly for children still appears as an outgoing challenge for pharmaceutical technology and the distinction between adults and children pharmacokinetics should be considered. The statement that children can be treated as “small adults” is obviously incorrect, particularly in determining the therapeutic doses in individual age groups [1–4]. In paediatric pharmacotherapy, many factors regarding a convenient dosage form (e.g., age-suitable formulations in proper strength, off label use, and palatability) have to be included. Creating paediatric dosage forms is associated with many difficulties. Therefore, the main goal raised by regulations of European Medicines Agency (EMA) or paediatric scientific network groups is increasing the safety and efficiency of paediatric therapy by the enhancement the quality of clinical studies for children in various age groups (from birth to 18 years old) with better availability of pharmacokinetic data [5,6]. Scientific and governmental initiatives (The Best Pharmaceuticals for Children—BPCA, Paediatric Investigation Plan—PIP) are focused on the development of paediatric dosage forms adjusted to the child’s age and as a consequence of enhancing the efficiency and safety of paediatric therapy [7,8]. The main directives implemented in the appropriate paediatric dosage forms development point basic difficulties connected with paediatric therapy. A special guideline concerning formulation and administration of suitable dosage forms and detailed information on how to use the medicines with regard to children was proposed (State of paediatric medicines in the European Union 10 report) [9]. Due to the special attention focused on the safety of excipients used in the paediatric formulations, the Step and Toxicity of Excipients for Paediatric Patients database has been created (STEP database) [10]. Additionally, EMA Int. J. Mol. Sci. 2019, 20, 3200; doi:10.3390/ijms20133200 www.mdpi.com/journal/ijms Int. J. Mol. Sci. 2019, 20, x 2 of 22 Int. J. Mol. Sci. 2019, 20, 3200 2 of 22 Toxicity of Excipients for Paediatric Patients database has been created (STEP database) [10]. Additionally, EMA gave a support in providing clinical trials with children to promote and gave a support in providing clinical trials with children to promote and harmonize existing paediatric harmonize existing paediatric guidelines [7,11–18]. As a result of these acts, the percentage of guidelines [7,11–18]. As a result of these acts, the percentage of clinical trials included children (where clinical trials included children (where only one participant was under 18 years at least) has only one participant was under 18 years at least) has increased from 8.3% in 2007 to 12.4% in 2016. increased from 8.3% in 2007 to 12.4% in 2016. Therefore, it still remains an outgoing problem as Therefore, it still remains an outgoing problem as there is constantly not enough clinical trials with there is constantly not enough clinical trials with children compared to the numbers of clinical trials children compared to the numbers of clinical trials carried out in adults [9]. Challenges associated with carried out in adults [9]. Challenges associated with conducting clinical trials in children include conducting clinical trials in children include many childhood diseases, heterogeneity of the population many childhood diseases, heterogeneity of the population and ethical problems [18].

  • Sucralfate Enemas
    Sucralfate Enemas Sucralfate enemas are used to treat inflammation of the rectum (the lower part of the large intestine leading to the anus); most commonly this is for radiation proctitis; bowel inflammation following radiotherapy. This treatment can help treat bleeding due to the inflammation, and can be continued for up to 24 weeks; you can stop when the bleeding stops. This fact sheet explains how you can administer the enema yourself, using a syringe and catheter. The hospital or community pharmacy can provide the Sucralfate enema, and you will need to ask your GP or practise nurse to supply the equipment you will need. Your practise nurse can help you practice preparing the enema, and could help you with administering it at home, if you find this difficult. 1. Using the syringe provided, draw up 10mls of the Sucralfate Suspension (2g) and then draw up 10mls of warm water and mix. Ensure that any excess air is expelled from the syringe. 2. Attach the catheter provided to the syringe tip and lubricate the end of the catheter with lubricating gel provided. 3. Lie on your left side with both knees bent. This position will help the flow of liquid in to the rectum and aid enema retention. 4. Position a towel underneath yourself to catch any leakage of fluid once the enema has been administered. 5. With a steady pressure, gently insert the catheter to a depth of approximately 10cm into the rectum. 6. Press down on the barrel of the syringe slowly, using a steady and even pressure, until the entire contents of the syringe have been administered.

Patel Nibha1 and SS. Pancholi2* 1Department of Pharmaceutics, BITS Institute of Pharmacy, Gujarat Technological university, Varnama, Vadodara, Gujarat, India 2BITS Institute of Pharmacy, Gujarat Technological University, Varnama, Vadodara, Gujarat, India. __________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT Oral mucosal drug delivery is an alternative and promising method of systemic drug delivery which offers several advantages. Sublingual literally meaning is ''under the tongue'', administrating substance via mouth in such a way that the substance is rapidly absorbed via blood vessels under tongue. Sublingual route offers advantages such as bypasses hepatic first pass metabolic process which gives better bioavailability, rapid onset of action, patient compliance , self-medicated. Dysphagia (difficulty in swallowing) is common among in all ages of people and more in pediatric, geriatric, psychiatric patients. In terms of permeability, sublingual area of oral cavity is more permeable than buccal area which is in turn is more permeable than palatal area. Different techniques are used to formulate the sublingual dosage forms. Sublingual drug administration is applied in field of cardiovascular drugs, steroids, enzymes and some barbiturates. This review highlights advantages, disadvantages, different sublingual formulation such as tablets and films, evaluation. Key Words: Sublingual delivery, techniques, improved bioavailability, evaluation.

Nanocarriers, such as liposomes, have favorable advantages with the potential to further improve cancer immunotherapy and even stronger immune responses by improving cell type-specific delivery and enhancing drug efficacy. Liposomes can offer solutions to common problems faced by several cancer immunotherapies, including the following: (1) Vaccination: Liposomes can improve the delivery of antigens and other stimulatory molecules to antigen-presenting cells or T cells; (2) Tumor normalization: Liposomes can deliver drugs selectively to the tumor microenvironment to overcome the immune-suppressive state; (3) Rewiring of tumor signaling: Liposomes can be used for the delivery of specific drugs to specific cell types to correct or modulate pathways to facilitate better anti-tumor immune responses; (4) Combinational therapy: Liposomes are ideal vehicles for the simultaneous delivery of drugs to be combined with other therapies, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and phototherapy. In this review, different liposomal systems specifically developed for immunomodulation in cancer are summarized and discussed. Keywords: liposome; drug delivery; cancer immunotherapy; immunomodulation 1. The Potential of Immunotherapy for the Treatment of Cancer Cancer immunotherapy has been widely explored because of its durable and robust effects [1].
