The poor bioavailability and the therapeutic effectiveness exhibited by the anti-depressant venlafaxine hydrochloride on oral administration is overcome by the use of ion-activated gel forming systems that are instilled as drops; these undergo gelation in the nasal cavity. The present study describes the design, characterization and evaluation of mucoadhesive nasal in situ gelling drug delivery of venlafaxine hydrochloride using different polymers like sodium alginate, HPMC and pectin in various concentrations. DSC studies revealed compatibility of the drug and excipients used. The in situ gels were characterized for physicochemical parameters, gelling ability, rheological studies, drug content, drug entrapment efficiency, in vitro mucoadhesive strength, water holding capacity, gel expansion coefficient and in vitro drug release studies. The amount of polymer blends was optimized using 23 full factorial design. The influence of experimental factors on percentage cumulative drug release at the end of 2 and 8 hours were investigated to get optimized formulation. The responses were analyzed using ANOVA and polynomial equation was generated for each response using multiple linear regression analysis. Optimized formulation, F9, containing 1.98% w/V sodium alginate, 0.64% w/V hydroxylpropyl methylcellulose, 0.99% w/V pectin showed percentage cumulative drug release of 19.33 and 80.44 at the end of 2 and 8 hours, respectively, which were close to the predicted values. The optimized formulation was subjected to stability study for three months at 300C /75% RH. The stability study revealed no significant change in pH, drug content and viscosity. Thus, venlafaxine hydrochloride nasal mucoadhesive in situ gel could be successfully formulated to improve bioavailability and to target the brain.

Purpose. Effective Helicobacter pylori eradication requires delivery of the antibiotic locally in the stomach. High dose of amoxicillin (750 to 1000 mg) is difficult to incorporate in floating tablets but can easily be given in liquid dosage form. Keeping the above facts in mind, we made an attempt to develop a new floating in situ gelling system of amoxicillin with increased residence time using sodium alginate as gelling polymer to eradicate H. pylori. Methods. Floating in situ gelling formulations were prepared using sodium alginate, calcium chloride, sodium citrate, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose K100, and sodium bicarbonate. The prepared formulations were evaluated for solution viscosity, floating lag time, total floating time, and in vitro drug release. The formulation was optimized using a 32 full factorial design. Dissolution data were fitted to various models to ascertain kinetic of drug release. Regression analysis and analysis of variance were performed for dependent variables. Results. All formulations (F1–F9) showed floating within 30 s and had total floating time of more than 24 h. All the formulations showed good pourability. It was observed that concentration of sodium alginate and HPMC K100 had significant influence on floating lag time, cumulative percentage drug release in 6 h and 10 h. The batch F8 was considered optimum since it showed more similarity in drug release () to the theoretical release profile. Conclusion. Floating in situ gelling system of amoxicillin can be formulated using sodium alginate as a gelling polymer to sustain the drug release for 10 to 12 h with zero-order release kinetics.

Alginate based floating in situ gelling systems of famotidine (FIGF) were prepared by dissolving varying concentrations of alginate in deionized water containing sodium citrate, to which varying concentrations of drug and calcium chloride was added and dissolved by stirring. Results of preliminary trials indicate that concentrations of sodium alginate, calcium chloride and sodium citrate affected the characteristics of in situ gel. A 32 full factorial design was employed to study the effect of independent variables, concentration of sodium alginate (X1) and concentration of calcium chloride (X2) on dependent variables, i.e. viscosity, drug content, drug release at 4 hrs (Q50) and drug release at 8 hrs (Q80). A sustained drug release was obtained for more than 8 hrs. In vivo testing of FIGF to albino Wistar rats demonstrated significant anti-ulcer effect of famotidine.

Floating drug delivery of a locally acting H2-antagonist: An approach using an in situ gelling liquid formulation In the present work, a gastroretentive in situ gelling liquid formulation for controlled delivery of ranitidine was formulated using sodium alginate (low, medium and high viscosity grades), calcium carbonate (source of cations) and ranitidine. Prepared formulations were evaluated for viscosity, buoyancy lag time and buoyancy duration, drug content and in vitro drug release. Formulation variables such as concentration of sodium alginate, calcium carbonate and drug significantly affected the formulation viscosity, floating behavior and in vitro drug release. Analysis of the release pattern showed that the drug release from in situ gel followed a diffusion mechanism.
