The oral thin film can be used as a delivery carrier to deliver some sleep-promoting ingredients. When the oral thin film contacts saliva, it quickly disintegrates and releases the active ingredients, and takes effect quickly, becoming an alternative to pills, powders, and liquid preparations. Our R & D team uses oral thin film as a carrier to load some sleep ingredients to prepare the sleep oral thin film, helping people with sleep disorders relieve sleep disorders.

Oral thin films as a delivery system for melatonin Fig.2 An oral delivery platform based on orodispersible films. (Umberto M. Musazzi, et al., 2019) |
Active Ingredients: Melatonin This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of innovative ODFs as a delivery system for melatonin that can either decrease the sleep onset latency or increase the total sleep time, suitable for people with swallowing difficulties such as children and the elderly. In the attempt to guarantee both a fast onset of action and a prolonged release, different ODF formulations containing melatonin-loaded lipid microparticles and the free-dispersed drug were studied. |
