The buccal area of the oral mucosa provides an adorable channel of systemic medication distribution within the mouth mucosa. Drugs are delivered via oral mucosal layer, that has a higher first-pass metabolism and degrades gastrointestinal. The medication is immediately transmitted via the systemic circulation via the buccal drug delivery mechanism, which allows for painless administration, quick enzymatic action, high bioavailability, and reduced liver metabolism. The disadvantages of the oral drug delivery route include substantial presystemic metabolism, which causes medicines to a break down in an acidic environment due to poor absorption. Buccal delivery is an attractive administrative route due to its ease of delivery through the buccal mucosal membrane lining of the oral cavity. This review paper provides a comprehensive overview of the oral mucosa, mucoadhesion, variables influencing the whole process, assessment methodologies, and how to eliminate obstacles when formulating buccal drug delivery formulations.

Background: Corona virusis identified since 2002 and from seven strain severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus and middle east respiratory syndrome corona virus causes severity in patients and then in December 2019, an outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome Corona virus 2 infection ensued in Wuhan, China and spread crosswise China and beyond. On February 12, 2020, WHO officially named the disease caused by the novel Corona virusas Corona virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Main Text: This form of virus comes up its growth when expose to any of the naturally expose material and the precaution for this is only single oriented, that is keeping yourself hygienic by washing your hands by utilizing high grade sanitizer. The literature survey revealed that Corona virus strain mainly severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus and middle east respiratory syndrome Corona virus and human corona virus preserve on various surfaces like metal, glass or plastic for about 9 days but inactivation of virus by utilizing various virucide. On infection, the virus has a surge of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines, which do damage to lung tissue, deterioration of lung function, and then eventually go to lung failure. Drug discovery against the virus is a challenging line of work owing to frequent recombination events. The evolution of a vaccine is another significant facet. Research is in ongoing stage to develop vaccine and medicines for COVID 19. In such circumstances, other system of medicineis widely used, like Allopathy, Ayurveda and Unani. Unani system of medicine utilized some measures for health protection during epidemics. In Unani medicine, during an epidemic, apart from isolation and quarantine, three measures are of utmost importance, impurification of surroundings using certain herbal drugs as fumigants or sprays, health promotion and immune-modulation, and use of health-protecting drugs and symptom-specific drugs. Conclusion: We require more structural biological details which put up rush up the drug or vaccine development process against corona virus. Thus, objective of this follow-up article is to focus on past to present perspective on corona virus pandemic.

In recent years, herbal drugs have flourished as the method of rehabilitation of choice in numerous parts of the world and most of populations consider them as alternative conventional medicaments. However, most of the herbal drugs show poor solubility and bioavailability, which ultimately leads to diminished efficacy and frequency of administration. Consequently, self-emulsifying drug delivery system has been highlighted for poor water-soluble herbal medicaments. Self-emulsifying drug delivery system is an isotropic mixture of phytoconstituents, oil, surfactant, and cosurfactant, and subsequent to oral administration spontaneously endures self-emulsification and forms without emulsion as soon as it comes in contact gastric fluid. Most of the researchers and industrialists are attracted towards this novel and emerging technology as it offers various advantages. The chapter focuses on the mechanism of self-emulsifying, benefits of herbal SEDDS, factors affecting herbal SEDDS with formulation and characterisation of it.

Omega-3 fatty acids are related to healthy aging all over life. A moment ago, from fish, source omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA have been related with fetal development in AD and cognition related problems. Nevertheless, since the human body does not effectively produce few omega-3 fatty acids, while obtaining from marine sources. The brain is extremely augmented with lipids bilayers. Therefore, it is accountable to undertaken that the combination of different fatty acids within brain ha importance for brain functioning, counting neuropsychiatric and cognition development. To know the special effects form fatty acids ingestion, we need to depend on the mutual evaluation of experimental studies, observations, and interventional studies. The brain is enriched with lipid bilayers of omega-3 fatty acid constituents like DHA and EPA may have lots of effects on the brain. The potential function of omega-3 fatty acid, DHA, and EPA in the inhibition of cognition degeneration including AD has involved key importance from the last few decades. Additionally, AD has delivered the utmost positive sign to backing the situation that inflammation gives to a neurodegenerative disorder. The main etiology of the AD is unidentified, but genetic and ecological parameters are supposed, like family history, poor lifestyle and poor diet, the existence of any chronic disease like cardiovascular disease, increased age, and diabetes. It is assumed 174that primarily, management or prevention of inflammation may delay the indications of AD. Normally, changes the brain physiology with increased aging, comprising reduction of elongated chain omega-3 fatty acids as well as the brain of AD patients have reduced the DHA presence. Provided supplementary DHA can decrease the indications of inflammations. The health-related benefits of omega-3 fatty acids are really appreciable. Presently, there is no evidence of maintenance or confirmation of that modifiable risk parameters like herbal medicines, nutritional supplements, modified diet, etc. are associated with reduced the risk factors of AD or the cognition failure. Even though, multiple studies are showing that lifestyle and diet-related parameters are the main risk factors for AD and cognition behavior. This chapter basically focused on the different functions of omega-3 fatty acids mainly DHA and EPA in different neurodegenerative diseases and disorders.
