Researchers at Siksha 'O' Anusandhan (Deemed to be University) in Odisha, India, have conducted a study on managing intraocular pressure and inflammation in ocular tophaceous gout patients using a febuxostat film formulation. The study involved fabricating a hydrogel film of febuxostat with plasticizers and testing its efficacy in reducing intraocular pressure and inflammation in rabbit eye models. Results showed sustained drug release, decreased intraocular pressure, and reduced ocular inflammation, indicating the potential of febuxostat-loaded hydrogel films in managing these conditions. The research was published in ADMET and DMPK, and more information can be found in the journal article. [Extracted from the article]
