Popis: Povidone (PVP)/Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrices were evaluated as drug delivery devices. PVP was utilized as a hydrophilic component to alter drug release. Salicylic acid was employed as a model drug substance.Discs were prepared by placing the blended ingredients into a mold and allowing PDMS to cross-link at room temperature. The experimental formulations were evaluated for salicylic release via in vitro and in vivo experiments. In vitro experiments were conducted by USP Method II. In vivo release was determined by monitoring salicylate depletion after subdermal implantation. In vitro and in vivo release rate of salicylic acid was found to be proportional to PVP concentration. All release rate curves displayed t1/2relationships for at least 75% of the total release period. Mouse survival was related to salicylic acid release rate.
