AI Technical Summary
Montelukast sodium, a leukotriene receptor antagonist, has inconsistent bioavailability due to reduced solubility in acidic stomach conditions, leading to slow and inconsistent absorption, limiting its effectiveness in treating neuroinflammatory disorders and neurodegenerative diseases.
An oral film dosage form with an alkaline surface pH greater than 7.5, containing Montelukast, which rapidly dissolves and disintegrates in the oral cavity, transforming into a precipitate for improved absorption across the blood-brain barrier.
Enhances bioavailability of Montelukast, allowing effective delivery to the brain for treating neuroinflammatory disorders and neurodegenerative diseases, with improved plasma and cerebrospinal fluid concentration levels.
