Transmucosal drug delivery involves mucosal membranes such as oral mucosa, nasal mucosa, rectal mucosa, vaginal mucosa, ocular mucosa, and pulmonary mucosa for drug administration. Higher bioavailability, rapid onset of action, evasion of first-pass metabolism, and ease of administration are the key advantages of this drug delivery system over traditional routes of drug administration. The report includes growth prospects owing to the current transmucosal drug delivery systems market trends and their foreseeable impact during the forecast period.
Transmucosal drug delivery is a preferred route of drug administration owing to the sustained efficacy of this type of delivery. Transmucosal routes such as intranasal, buccal, sublingual, and rectal are noninvasive methods of the systemic delivery of drugs. They are particularly useful as caregivers or patients can administer these drugs without the need for expert personnel. Moreover, a rapid onset of action with reduced first-pass metabolism makes them ideal for palliative and end-of-life care. They work fast to relieve symptoms and offer patients quick relief. As a result, transmucosal delivery systems have become a popular choice in the management of various chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and chronic respiratory diseases. As per an article published by PubMed Central in January 2020, a study was carried out for the investigation and comparison of the safety and pharmacokinetics of dihydroergotamine (DHE) when administered in the form of intranasal DHE powder (STS101), intranasal DHE spray (Migranal), and intramuscular (IM) DHE injection in healthy subjects. The study concluded that STS101 is an easy-to-administer, non‐injected, acute treatment for migraine with a favorable tolerability profile. It is further expected to facilitate rapid and consistent pain relief, and suppress migraine symptoms without recurrence.
Numerous pharmacological drugs are offered as oral transmucosal formations; these include cardiovascular agents, sedatives, and analgesics. Biodegradable oral films aid in drug delivery to the systemic circulation, which is highly advantageous for individuals with dysphagia, repeated vomiting, hypertension, heart attack, asthma, nausea, paralysis, and mental disorders. These oral fast-dissolving films are thin adhesive strips that are placed on the patient's tongue or any oral mucosal tissue.
Therefore, advantages such as ease of administration, high bioavailability, systemic drug availability, and rapid action fuel the transmucosal drug delivery systems market growth.
