Three-dimensional printing could serve as a platform to fabricate individualized medicines and complex-structured solid dosage forms. Herein, hot melt extrusion was coupled with 3D printing to develop a unique gastro retentive dosage form to personalize treatment of cinnarizine or other narrow absorption window drugs. The mechanical strength of the extruded strands was optimized for printing by combining two polymers, hydroxypropyl cellulose and vinylpyrrolidone vinyl acetate copolymer. The unit dose, floating force, and release profile were controlled by the printing parameters and object design. The tablets floated immediately within the FaSSGF, and floating force was relatively constant up to 12 h. Drug release followed zero-order kinetics and could be controlled from 6 h to ≥ 12 h. Input variables had a good correlation (R > 0.95) with unit dose, floating force, and dissolution profile (p < 0.05). Authors successfully proposed and tested a new paradigm of individualized medicine fabrication to meet individual patient needs.
