In a preferred embodiment, the formulation contains anti-inflammatories, anti-infectives, or other therapeutic, prophylactic, or diagnostic agents that can be administered orally, especially when lower blood levels relative to tissue levels of agent are preferred. In the most preferred formulation, the composition contains tacrolimus-loaded ascorbyl palmitate gel microfibers containing nanostructures ('hydrogels').
