DOI : 10.23893/1307-2080.APS.05919 In bio adhesive drug delivery, the word bio adhesion is used to define the connection between polymers (synthetic or natural) and gastro-intestinal mucosa or any soft tissue of the body. In cases when the bond is designed with the mucosa, the term mucoadhesion may be used synonymously with bio adhesion. For delivered the mucoadhesive drug by oral route following locations are used:-Oral cavities (lips, tongue, cheek or buccal, soft palate, hard palate and floor of the mouth. Importance of Antioxidant activity, it increase the dwelling time of the dosage time at the absorption site and it improves absorption and the therapeutic ability of the drug due to increase the residence time. Natural polysaccharides have an extensive variety of applications as a dietary supplement and pharmaceutical excipients with good biocompatibility, low cost, and easy accessibility. Polysaccharides are obtained from various sources like plants, marine, and animals. Keywords : Polymers, Mucoadhesive drug delivery system, Antioxidant activity, Flaxseed mucilage, and Grafted Polysaccharides
