Abstract
Long acting parenteral formulations are preferred over conventional formulations for the treatment of chronic diseases. Prevalence of such diseases provoked the interest of researchers and pharmaceutical industries in the development of long acting parenteral formulations. The regulatory guidelines and pharmacopoeia have remained silent on dissolution methods for long acting parenteral formulations due to their diverse nature. The lack of compendial method for dissolution testing increases the duration of approval process for long acting parenteral formulations. This article reviews various dissolution methods used to study in vitro drug release profile of long acting parenteral formulations. Compendial as well as noncompendial methods, such as- rotating dialysis cell, dialysis tube, rotating bottle, shaking flask, single drop, inverted cup and incubation, are used by researchers for drug release profile of long acting parenteral formulations. This review article also highlights the advantages and disadvantages of reported dissolution methods along with the suitability of these methods for particular type of long acting formulation. The compiled work will help the researchers in designing the biorelevant dissolution method and expedite the development of long acting parenteral formulations.

Advances of natural products, bio-actives and novel drug delivery system against emerging viral infections
Due to the increasing prevalence of viral infections and the ability of these human pathogens to develop resistance to current treatment strategies, there is a great need to find and develop new compounds to combat them. These molecules must have low toxicity, specific activity and high bioavailability. The most suitable ...read more
Electrospun Fibers as Drug Delivery Systems
In recent years, electrospun fibers have attracted considerable attention as potential platforms for drug delivery due to their distinctive properties and adaptability. These fibers feature a notable surface area-to-volume ratio and can be intentionally designed with high porosity, facilitating an increased capacity for drug loading and rendering them suitable for ...read more
Emerging Nanotherapeutics for Mitigation of Neurodegenerative Disorders
Conditions affecting the central nervous system (CNS) present a significant hurdle due to limited access of both treatments and diagnostic tools for the brain. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) acts as a barrier, restricting the passage of molecules from the bloodstream into the brain. The most formidable challenge facing scientists is ...read more
Nanotechnology Based Chemotherapy for the treatment of Head & Neck Cancer
The escalating recurrence rates observed in Head and Neck cancer, particularly within the chemo-therapeutically treated cohort (50-60%), can be attributed to the non-selective nature of current anticancer drug delivery modalities. In this context, nanotechnology-based drug delivery systems emerge as a promising avenue for achieving precise localization of therapeutic agents to ...read more
