Clopidogrel bisulphate (CB) is a crystalline, poorly water-soluble drug of bioavailability less than 50%. The drug is an irreversible inhibitor of the P2Y12 adenosine diphosphate receptor found on the membranes of platelet cells. The present work was performed using different polymers such as Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) K-30 and polyvinyl alcohol with varied surfactants such as Tween 80 in comparison by using superdisintegrants like Sodium Starch Glycolate (SSG) and Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC). By performing the particle size distribution, the size ranges from 232.6 nm to 995.6 nm and the polydispersity index ranges from 0.11 to 0.96, these ranges indicating the good physical nature of nanoparticles. The drug entrapment efficiency (DEE) of clopidogrel bisulphate nanoparticles was found to be in the range of 30.10% to 94.4%. From the study, it was found that F2 formulation containing PVP K-30 and L-arginine has given the best release in 80mins and the maximum cumulative drug release was 96.8% in comparison with other formulation, and the dissolution studies were performed for the seven formulations of prepared clopidogrel bisulphate granules among which F5 formulation containing crospovidone has given maximum drug release of 91.6% within 80mins. Here we state that the method development technologies improve the solubility and bioavailability studies by producing the nanoparticles.

Alginate microspheres for a highly water soluble antidiabetic drug Metformin hydrochloride was prepared by ionic gelation method and investigated for its various physicochemical and release properties. To prevent a rapid drug release from alginate microspheres in simulated gastro-intestinal media, alginate microspheres were blended with polymers, hydroxy propyl methylcellulose, methylcellulose, chitin and chitosan and evaluated as additive polymers for controlling the drug release. Results indicated that quantity of polymer; gelating agent and time of cross-linking affected the shape, size and release characteristics from the prepared dosage forms. Use of polymers to retard the release of drug was effective. Drug release from the microspheres followed swelling and erosion. The selected batches sustained the release of the drug for more than 8 h. and showed drug entrapment efficiency up to 85%. As the polymer concentration in the formulation increased, the drug release generally decreased. HPMC-blended microspheres swelled but withstood the disintegration, showing an ideal linear release profiles. The zero order release was shown by all the formulations except when chitosan was incorporated. In comparison with chitosan-blended microspheres, HPMC-blended and MC blended alginate microspheres can be easily made and used for controlled drug delivery systems due to convenient process and better controlled drug release.

Purposes: Aims of this study are dissolution enhancement of a poorly water-soluble drug by nano-sized solid dispersion and investigation of machenism of drug release from the solid dispersion. A drug for osteoporosis treatment was used as the model drug in the study. Methods: melting method was used to prepare the solid dispersion. Drug dissolution rate was investigated at pH 1.2 and pH 6.8. Drug crystallinity was studied using differential scanning calorimetric and powder X-ray diffraction. In addition, droplet size and contact angle of drug were determined to elucidate mechanism of drug release. Results: Drug dissolution from the solid dispersion was significantly increased at pH 1.2 and pH 6.8 as compared to pure drug. Drug crystallinity was changed to partially amorphous. Also dissolution enhancement of drug was due to the improved wettability. The droplet size of drug was in the scale of nano-size when solid dispersion was dispersed in dissolution media. Conclusions: nano-sized solid dispersion in this research was a successful preparation to enhance bioavailability of a poorly water-soluble drug by mechanisms of crystal changes, particle size reduction and increase of wet property.

Liquisolid Compacts

In present investigation liquisolid compact technique is investigated as a tool for enhanced dissolution of poorly water-soluble drug Ketoconazole. The liquisolid tablets were formulated with liquid medications, namely Propylene Glycol (PG) drug concentrations, 60% w/w, 70% w/w and 80% w/w. Avicel pH102 was used as a carrier material, Aerosil 200 as a coating material and Sodium starch glycollate as a super-disintegrant. Quality control tests, such as uniformity of tablet weight, uniformity of drug content, tablet hardness, friability test, disintegration and dissolution tests were performed to evaluate prepared tablets. For further confirmation of results the liquisolid compacts were evaluated by XRD and FTIR studies to prove that, solubility of Ketoconazole has been increased by liquisolid compact technique. From the results obtained, it was be speculated that such systems exhibit enhanced drug release profiles due to increased wetting properties and surface of drug available for dissolution. As liquisolid compacts demonstrated significantly higher drug release rates, in PG as compared to directly compressible tablets and conventional wet granulation, we lead to conclusion that it could be a promising strategy in improving the dissolution of poor water soluble drugs and formulating immediate release solid dosage forms.

Objective: To enhance solubility and dissolution rate of budesonide through development of solid self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (S-SNEDDS). Methods: Liquid self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (L-SNEDDS) were prepared and ternary phase diagram was constructed using Origin pro 8. Liquid self-nanoemulsifying formulation LF2 having 20% oil and 80% of surfactant/co-surfactant was optimized from the three formulations (LF1-LF3) to convert in to solid, through various characterization techniques like self-emulsification, in vitro drug release profile and drug content estimation. The prepared L-SNEDDS converted into S-SNEDDS, SF1-SF6 by adsorption technique using Aerosil 200, Neusilin US2, and Neusilin UFL2 to improve flowability, compressibility and stability. Results: Formulation LF2 exhibited globule size of 82.4 nm, PDI 0.349 and Zeta potential -28.6 mV with drug indicating the stability and homogeneity of particles. The optimized formulation SF4 containing Neusilin UFL2 was characterized by DSC, FTIR, X-Ray diffraction studies and found no incompatibility and no major shifts were noticed. Formulation SF4 released 100 % drug in 20 min against pure drug release of 47 % in 60 min. Regardless of the form (i.e. liquid or solid) similar performance of emulsification efficiency is observed. Conclusion: The results demonstrated that the technique of novel solid self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system can be employed to enhance the solubility and dissolution rate of poorly water-soluble drug budesonide.

Objective: The study was carried out with an objective to achieve a potential sustained release oral drug delivery system of an antihypertensive drug, Perindopril which is a ACE inhibitor having half life of 2 hours. Perindopril is water soluble drug, so we can control or delay the release rate of drug by using release retarding polymers. This may also decrease the toxic side effects by preventing the high initial concentration in the blood.Method: Microcapsules were prepared by solvent evaporation technique using Eudragit L100 and Ethyl cellulose as a retarding agent to control the release rate and magnesium stearate as an inert dispersing carrier to decrease the interfacial tension between lipophilic and hydrophilic phase. Results: Prepared microcapsules were evaluated for the particle size, percentage yield, drug entrapment efficiency, flow property and in vitro drug release for 12 h. Results indicated that the percentage yield, mean particle size, drug entrapment efficiency and the micrometric properties of the microcapsules was influenced by various drug: polymer ratio. The release rate of microcapsules could be controlled as desired by adjusting the combination ratio of dispersing agents to retarding agents.Conclusion:Perindopril microcapsules can be successfully designed to develop sustained drug delivery, that reduces the dosing frequency and their by one can increase the patient compliance.

Major Interest

Low molecular mass chitosan as carrier for a hydrodynamically balanced system for sustained delivery of ciprofloxacin hydrochloride Chitosan has become a focus of major interest in recent years due to its excellent biocompatibility, biodegradability and non-toxicity. Although this material has already been extensively investigated in the design of different types of drug delivery systems, it is still little explored for stomach specific drug delivery systems. The objective of the present investigation was to explore the potential of low molecular mass chitosan (LMCH) as carrier for a hydrodynamically balanced system (HBS) for sustained delivery of water soluble drug ciprofloxacin hydrochloride (CP). Various formulations were prepared by physical blending of drug and polymer(s) in varying ratios followed by encapsulation into hard gelatin capsules. All the formulations remained buoyant in 0.1 mol L-1 HCl (pH 1.2) throughout the experiment. Effect of addition of xanthan gum (XG) or ethyl cellulose (EC) on drug release was also investigated. Zero order drug release was obtained from the formulations containing LMCH alone or in combination with XG, and in one instance also with EC. Our results suggest that LMCH alone or in combination with XG is an excellent material for stomach specific sustained delivery of CP from hydrodynamically balanced single unit capsules.

Background: Metformin (MF) is an antidiabetic drug that belongs to class III of the biopharmaceutical classification system (BCS) which is characterized by high solubility and low permeability. Objective: The study aimed to prepare metformin as nanostructured lipid carriers (MF-NLCs) to control the drug release and enhance its permeability through the biological membrane. Method: 22 full factorial design was used to make the design of MF-NLCs formulations. MF-NLCs were prepared by hot-melt homogenization-ultra sonication technique using beeswax as solid lipid in presence of liquid lipid (either capryol 90 or oleic acid) and surfactant (either poloxamer 188 or tween 80). Results: The entrapment efficiency (EE%) of MF-NLCs was ranged from 85.2±2.5 to 96.5±1.8%. The particle size was in the nanoscale (134.6±4.1 to 264.1±4.6 nm). The value of zeta potential has a negative value ranged from -25.6±1.1 to -39.4±0.9 mV. The PDI value was in the range of (0.253±0.01 to 0.496±0.02). The cumulative drug release was calculated for MF-NLCs and it was found that Q12h ranged from 90.5±1.7 % for MF-NLC1 to 99.3±2.8 for MF-NLC4. Infra-red (IR) spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) studies revealed the compatibility of the drug with other ingredients. MF-NLC4 was found to the optimized formulation with the best responses. Conclusion: 22 full factorial design succeed to obtain an optimized formulation which controls the drug release and increases the drug penetration.
