During recent times, the delivery of the medications to the colon has seen more interest by the researchers, as it proved to be providing both options for treating local colon-related conditions and a route for systemic delivery of the various other types of medications. For these to happen, the medication has to provide protection from severe conditions in the stomach and small bowel, which either degrade the medication or may cause its premature release and uptake in the upper part of the digestive track. This review describes the various roles of microspheres as a colon-targeted drug delivery device (CTDDD). Through these review, we try to provide thorough information about the effects of the physiology of the colon. Also, we made an effort to highlight different mechanisms of colon targeting.
See a table with a broad overview of microspheres in the article.
