Abstract

Carefully releasing anti-inflammatory drugs from natural materials is a new way to make treatments work better and cut down on the side effects of current drug delivery methods. To slowly release drugs, this method uses safe, reusable materials. It’s a good alternative to pills or shots. Anti-inflammatory drugs that are used to treat long-term conditions like gout and inflammatory bowel disease work better when they are made in a controlled release form. With these formulations, the medicine can be delivered steadily and precisely. Researchers are always looking into biopolymers like alginate, chitosan, collagen, and hyaluronic acid to see how well they can hold drugs and slowly release them. This helps the body hold on to the right amount of medicine for longer. You can make these polymers change how fast drugs are released based on things like the molecular weight, linking density, and pH or temperature outside the polymer. These biopolymer materials can be changed so that medicine goes straight to the areas that need it, which is very helpful for getting rid of pain in those areas. This study looks at recent progress made in making biopolymer devices that release drugs that reduce inflammation. Drugs can be released in a number of ways, such as through diffusion, dissolution, and growth. The book talks about how the properties of biopolymers change how drugs are released, which in turn changes how well treatment works.

Keywords: Controlled release, Biopolymer matrices, Anti-inflammatory drugs, Drug delivery systems, Biodegradable polymers.
