INTRODUCTION
Oro-dispersible film drug-delivery systems were first
developed in the late 1970s as based on the technology of the
transdermal patch.
An alternative to tablets, capsules, and syrups for paediatric and
geriatric patients who experienced difficulties in swallowing
traditional oral solid-dosage forms.

A solid dosage form that dissolves or disintegrates quickly in the oral
cavity, resulting in solution or suspension without need for the
administration of water, is known as Oral Fast-dispersing dosage form.
These are also called as:
Orally dissolving films
Flash release wafer
Wafer
Quick dissolving film
Soluble or Buccal film- Preferred by FDA
European Medicines Agency using Oro-Dispersible films

APPLICATIONS OF ORAL STRIPS
Topical application:Feasible in delivery of active agents like analgesics or anti-microbial agents
Gastro retentive dosage systems: Poorly water soluble and high molecular weight molecules incorporated
into films, dissolution triggered by PH or enzymatic secretions
Diagnostic devices:Multiple agents can be incorporated in the film for timed release in
diagnostic device

Comparison between fast dissolving tablets and films
Fast dissolving Tablets Fast dissolving Films
Lesser dissolution due to less surface area
Greater dissolution due to large surface area
Less durable as compared with oral films
Better durable than oral disintegrating tablets
Less patient compliance than films More patient compliance
High dose can be incorporated Low dose can only be incorporated
It has fear of chocking No risk of chocking

• Mouth dissolving film can be prepared by five methods:
1. Solvent casting method
2. Semisolid casting method
3. Hot melt extrusion
4. Solid dispersion technique.
5. Rolling method
• Generally Solvent casting method is most preferred for
the manufacture of mouth dissolving film.13
METHOD OF PREPARATION
05/02/2023 vignan pharmacy college , dep. of pharmaceutics 14
SOLVENT CASTING METHOD
1.• In solvent casting method excipients
are dissolved in water. Then water soluble polymers and in last drug is added.
2.• Solutions are stirred with the help of
magnetic stirrer for 5 mins. to form a homogenous solution
3. • Finally casted in to the Petri plate and dried at 40°C temp in hot air oven.

In this method firstly solutions or suspension of the drug is
prepared
Either water or mixture of water and alcohol are mainly used
Suspension or solution containing drug is rolled on the carrier
Films are dried on the rollers and cut in to desired shapes
and sizes

Packaging for oral thin films includes foil paper or plastic pouches,
single pouch, aluminum pouch, blister packaging with multiple units
and barrier films.
Barrier films are most commonly used for those drugs which are
extremely moisture sensitive .
The films are manufactured by Rapid film technology developed by
Labtec GmbH describes primary packaging made of a sealing pouch
affords enough space for logos, codes, instructions or other
information.
Barrier films were prepared by a laminating process and packaging
costs are comparable to tablets

• With the reference to Research and Market : Oral Thin Films
Market ,2015-2025:jan 2015
1. As per the market projection study for 2015-2025, owns a good
prospective of growth as a upcoming technology of drug delivery.
2. 10 oral films are in market and another 29 are in the stage of various
clinical and pre clinical trials.
3. Around 10 proprietary technologies like PharmFilm, RapidFilm, Bio-
FX, etc are coming up which has 38% of the market.
4. Thus there is a potential ground of research in this technology.

The brief review on oral films concludes with the note that they
are considered as a most promising and important drug delivery
system because of their rapid disintegration include dissolution
properties especially with pediatrics and geriatrics patients.
Even though most of the formulations today are developed as
ODTs, oral films has gained more popularity because of their
easy portability, improved patient compliance and easy of
administration.

They can be applied by both oral and buccal routes. apart from
being used as medicament films(local anesthetic ,vitamins
supplements and cold allergy remedies).
They can also be used for refreshing the breath.
This technology is growing in fast pace challenging most of the
pharmaceutical companies to develop oral films for a wide range
of active pharmaceutical ingredients.
