Since the dose is intended to colonic release, mucoadhesion parameters play a key role in the efficiency of the form. The beads remain longer in contact with colonic mucosa when they have more mucoadhesive property. As a result the probiotics will have enough time to get released from beads and colonize the colon [37], [51]. It is therefore judicious to consider formulas with high mucoadhesion to colonic tissues, to have prolonged duration of action and enhanced efficiency which help in reducing the dosing frequency. Figure 3 shows the mucoadhesiveness properties of different types of beads on jejunal [A] and colonic mucosa [B]. Generally the mucoadhesion strength decreases with time, regardless of the mucosal type or bead type. In the case of jejunal mucosa [A] no significant differences were observed between…

Additionally, she was experiencing some nausea; however, her abdomen was non-distended, and assessment findings revealed her having a body temperature within defined limits.
