Popis: | The preparation, polymerization and copolymerization of a novel methacrylate type monomer containing 5-fluorouracil is described. The methyl and butyl acrylate copolymers show zero order release behavior, and can deliver a constant level of 5-fluorouracil for time periods greater than 240 hours. These zero order release profiles were obtained without any special membranes or device designs, and were characteristic of the polymeric material itself. |
