Probiotics are also effective against multidrug-resistant pathogens and help maintain a balanced gut microbiota ecosystem. Accordingly, the global market of probiotics is growing rapidly, and research efforts to develop probiotics into therapeutic adjuvants are gaining momentum. However, because probiotics are living microorganisms, many biological and biopharmaceutical barriers limit their clinical application. Probiotics may lose their activity in the harsh gastric conditions of the stomach or in the presence of bile salts. Moreover, they easily lose their viability under thermal or oxidative stress during their preparation and storage. Therefore, stable formulations of probiotics are required to overcome the various physicochemical, biopharmaceutical, and biological barriers and to maximize their therapeutic effectiveness and clinical applicability. This review provides an overview of the pharmaceutical applications of probiotics and covers recent formulation approaches to optimize the delivery of probiotics with particular emphasis on various dosage forms and formulation technologies.Keywords: probiotic, therapeutic adjuvant, formulation, drug delivery system, gut microbiotaBaral KCBajracharya RLee SHHan HKDove Medical Pressarticleprobiotictherapeutic adjuvantformulationdrug delivery systemgut microbiotaMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of Nanomedicine, Vol Volume 16, Pp 7535-7556 (2021) |
