In the last decades ophthalmic drug delivery systems providing sustained and controlled drug release are of great interest. To improve ocular drug efficiency and bioavailability, there is a significant effort done towards the development of new drug delivery systems for ophthalmic administration. In the current research an attempt was made to prepare ne w drug delivery systems based on polymeric materials with prolonged and controlled therapeutic effect. Film casting method was used in order to obtain chitosan/mexidol composites. The influence of drug concentration on the drug release kinetics was investigated.
