Effect of l-menthol on mucosa absorption of ciprofloxacin / 中国临床药理学与治疗学

AIM: To investigate the effect of l menthol on the absorption of ciprofloxacin (Cip) via the mucosa. METHODS: Mucosa absorption experiment and deposit effect were made on a two cells diffusion apparatus in vitro to calculate permeation coefficients. RESULTS: With increasing of the concentration of Cip, the permeation coefficient of mucosa absorption showed a increasing tendency, but deposit effect declined significantly. After using l menthol, the permeation coefficient of Cip showed a declining tendency. Especially at 0.2 percent concentration of l menthol, the decrease level was more obvious than other groups (P
