Description:
In situ gels have become one of the most prominent and accessible systems. These systems have several advantages like simple manufacturing, easy
to use, improved adherence, and patient comfort by minimizing drug administration frequency by its unique characteristic features of sol to gel
transition. In the 'sol-gel' method, the precursor goes through hydrolysis and polymerization or condensation to produce a colloidal suspension or
solution. As they can administer in solution form, these in situ gelling systems undergo gelation at the achievement site. Some researchers recently
developed in situ gelling systems of liposomes, microspheres, nanoemulsions, nanospheres, etc. This review mainly focused on the introduction,
advantages, disadvantages, types of polymers, and suitable characteristics for preparing in situ gels.
