Brief Summary  

In recent years, various methods have been developed to deliver therapeutic agents through various transmucosal routes, to release a therapeutic amount of drug to a specific site and to maintain the desired therapeutic concentration. The conventional dosage forms, such as tablets or injections have many drawbacks such as poor bioavailability, poor solubility, quick breakdown of the drug in vivo, and rapid loss of drug activity. These drawbacks can be overcome through a suitable delivery system, depending on the medical condition. The concept of fast-dissolving films has become popular as a new delivery system. Several approaches have been developed and implemented, to improve the therapeutic outcomes of Granisetron HCl. A transdermal patch and extended release SC injection has been prepared to control the release and provide better therapeutic outcomes for the prevention of chemotherapy- induced N/V. Similarly, Troikaa Pharmaceuticals Ltd. has formulate granisetron sublingual solution to improve the therapeutic efficacy and bioavailability by avoiding the first pass metabolism. We hereby propose to conduct bioavailability study to evaluate the pharmacokinetic behavior of Granisetron sublingual solution 1% w/v
