The highly glycerin-loaded natural rubber (NR) films were fabricated by casting technique with different solvents including dichloromethane (DCM), diethyl ether and tetrahydrofuran (THF) with an addition of 75 phr glycerin. Their mechanical properties, wettability and topography were determined. The highly glycerin-loaded NR films exhibited the continuous porous structure which their tensile strength values decreased whereas their wettability was enhanced. Pore size of the glycerin-loaded NR films prepared by using DCM as a solvent was greatly larger than those of the systems prepared by using diethyl ether and THF, respectively. Some active compounds might be loaded into these modified porous structures of NR films and applied for controlled drug delivery systems.

Recently, focus on the development of controlled release drug delivery system has increased, as existing drugs exhibit certain pharmacokinetic limitations. The major goal of designing sustained release formulations is to improve the drug performance by prolonged duration of drug action, decreased frequency of dosing and reduced side effects by using smallest quantity of drug administered by the most suitable route. Osmotic-controlled release oral delivery system (OSMO technology) is the most promising strategy based system for sustained delivery of drug. Drug can be delivered in a controlled manner over a long period of time by the process of osmosis. Osmotic drug delivery system appears to be a promising solution for the limitations of conventional extended release formulations by virtue of their distinguished technological features. The present review describes briefly about various controlled drug delivery systems with special focus on advantages of osmotic-controlled release oral delivery system related to diabetes therapy and improved compliance.
