Journal Title: World Journal of Pharmaceutical and life sciences - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 5

Abstract

Day by day there are new developments in field of colon specific drug delivery system. Colonic drug delivery has gained increased importance not just for the delivery of the drugs for the treatment of local diseases associated with the colon like Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, etc. but also for the systemic delivery of proteins, therapeutic peptides, anti-asthmatic drugs, antihypertensive drugs and anti-diabetic agents. New systems and technologies have been developed for colon targeting and to overcome pervious method's limitations. Colon targeting holds a great potential and still need more innovative work.
