Diseases of the urinary bladderDiseases of the urinary bladder
cancer inflammation, infection incontinence
− periodical voiding of urine dilutes and washes out the drug� reduces the residence time of drug and lead to a new
administration� repeated catheterizations increase potential for infections− very low permeability of the urothelium in the diseased state

ConclusionConclusion
− intravesical drug delivery system based on thiolated chitosan offers an adequate release profile besides its mucoadhesive properties
− chitosan-TGA NP showed:1. greater stability2. superior mucoadhesion3. more sustained and controlled release
� Finally, chitosan-TGA intravesical drug delivery system might be a useful tool for a local drug application in the urinary bladder, which allows:1. prolonged residence time at the target site2. enables sustained drug delivery of trimethoprim over a longer
time span
