Background: Difficulty in swallowing tablet dosage form is common among all ages people, especially old and pediatrics. Fast dissolving oral films (FDOFs) may represent an innovative dosage type that settles the issue of gulping and supply fast onset of action. Objective: The objective of the present investigation was to increase the solubility of poorly soluble Glipizide (BCS Class II) by solid dispersion technique and develop its FDOFs. Methods: A solvent evaporation process was used to make a solid dispersion of the Glipizide. The saturation solubility of glipizide and its solid dispersion was determined in a different solvent. For the film preparation, solvent casting method was chosen. The excipients were selected based on pre-formulation data. The composition of the film was optimized based on a trial-and-error basis using different concentrations of plasticizer. The average weight, thickness, disintegration time, tensile strength, surface pH, folding endurance, drug content, and in-vitro dissolution analysis of the films were all taken into consideration. Results: There was no incompatibility between drug / solid dispersion and the excipients. The solid dispersion of the glipizide showed improved solubility by almost 10 folds. Many of the formulated films disintegrated in less than 30 seconds. At the end of 5 minutes, the optimized film had released more than 90% of the compound. The prepared films were found to be stable at room temperature. Conclusion: The solubility of Glipizide was improved successfully by solubilization technique using soluplus. The FDOFs of the glipizide were successfully formulated using pullulan as polymer.

Among the different type of route of administration oral route for drug administration is most common route in which Orodispersible tablet is preferred for the patient which are unconscious, week or for immediate control. The tablet gets dispersed in mouth cavity without water, present study deals with formulation of Naproxen sodium mouth dissolving tablets using super disintegrants. Naproxen sodium is analgesic and NSAID, used for the treatment of pain and inflammation caused by different condition such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and menstrual cramps. However gastric discomfort caused by naproxen sodium result in poor patient compliance associated with it conventional doses form but now days Naproxen sodium MDTs produces rapid onset of action and minimise gastric discomfort associated with it. Thus improves patient compliance, enhance bioavailability and reduces the dose of drug. MDTs are formulated by direct compression method using super disintegrants in different proportion. The powder blend is subjected to pre-compression evaluation parameters like bulk density, true density, and tapped density and angle of repose. Formulations are evaluated for weight variation, hardness, wetting time, water absorption time, disintegration time. And in vitro dissolution studies and all formulations complies Pharmacopoeias standards. The tablets are evaluated and result compared for all five formulation the most efficacious super disintegrants for MTDs of Naproxen sodium as suggested by the dispersion time, disintegration time and drug dissolution profiles.

Oral fast dissolving midodrine hydrochloride films prepared by solvent casting method, PEG 400 was the selected plasticizers, incorporating superdisintegrants such as croscarmellose sodium (CCS) and sodium starch glycolate (SSG) to achieve the goal. Drug content, weight variability, film thickness, disintegration time, endurance, percentage of moisture content, and in vitro dissolution tests were analyzed for the prepared films. In all formulations, the tensile strength value was found from 0.965±0.045 and 1.256±0.032 and the folding capacity was over 100. The assay values ranged from 97.98±0.25 to 99.89±0.36 percent for all formulations. The disintegration time was ranging between 55±9 to 120±6 sec, the minimum time for disintegration was found in formulation F5 (55±9). The prepared F5 formulation shows greater release of the drug (99.25±0.41 percent) within 15 min relative to other formulations. As the drug having low solubility, fast disintegration may leads to more drug availability for dissolution, resulting in faster absorption in systemic circulation increased systemic availability of drug leads to quick onset of action which is prerequisite for hypertension.

The aim of present work was the development of fast dissolving oral film of Loratadine to overcome the limitations of current routes of administration, to provide immediate action and increase the patient compliance. To improve the bioavailability of the drug, fast dissolving oral film were formulated using different grades of Hydroxy Propyl Methyl Cellulose(HPMC) and various plasticizers like Polyethylene Glycol(PEG) 400, glycerol, Propylene glycol(PG) by solvent casting method. The formulated films were evaluated for film thickness, surface pH, folding endurance, weight variation, % moisture loss, exvivo permeation study, tensile strength, % elongation, drug content uniformity, in vitro dissolution studies,in vitro disintegration test and in vivo study. The optimized formulation (F9) containing HPMC E5 and glycerol showed minimum disintegration time (10.5 s), highest in vitrodissolution (92.5%) and satisfactory stability. Ex vivo permeation study of optimized formulation showed a drug release of 80.6% within 10 min. The milk induced leucocytosis inrat proved that fast dissolving oral films of Loratadine produced a faster onset of action compared to the conventional tablets. These findings suggest that fast dissolving oral film of Loratadine could be potentially useful for treatment of allergy where quick onset of action is required.

In current investigation an attempt has been made to formulate and evaluate Quinapril mouth dissolving films using HPMC 50cps, E5, E15 and in combination of Pullulan by Solvent evaporation method. Sodium starch glycolate acts as a super disintegrating agent and it is shown that as the concentration of the super disintegrates increases the disintegration time decreases. The films were evaluated for weight variation, surface pH, folding endurance, drug content, dissolving time, disintegration time, and in-vitro dissolution studies. Based on the evaluation parameters F17 was to be optimized formulation. The optimized film (F17) showed the more drug release i.e 99.40 ± 5.30% within 7 min, lowest in vitro disintegration time 10 sec. FTIR studies proved no drug polymer interaction takes place. These results revealed that fast dissolving films of Quinapril could be formulated for quick onset of action which is required in the efficient management of hypertension.

Objective: The present study was aimed at designing of solid dispersion based pellets of curcumin (Cu) for improving its solubility. Methods: Solid dispersion (SD) of Cu was prepared by the melt method using Poloxamer 407 (Pol 407) at a different weight ratio of Cu-Pol 407 (1:2, 1:3, 1:5, 1:7, 1:10). The solid dispersion was characterised by FTIR, SEM, DSC, XRD and evaluated for saturation solubility in water, drug content and in vitro dissolution. The pellets of Cu solid dispersion were prepared by extrusion spheronization technique and optimization was performed by 32full factorial design. The pellets were evaluated for size distribution, flow properties, hardness, disintegration and in vitro drug dissolution. Results: From the phase solubility analysis, Pol 407 was selected as a Solid dispersion carrier. The formation of Cu-SD by melt method using Pol 407, was confirmed from FTIR and DSC studies. XRD studies indicated a change of Cu from crystalline to amorphous form. There was a significant increase of Cu when formulated as SD compared to plain Cu. The optimization of extrusion spheronization process revealed the significant effect of Cu-Pol 407 ratio (p<0.0001) on in vitro dissolution of pellets. Higher Cu dissolution was obtained with Cu-SD pellets compared to plain Cu pellets. Conclusion: The present study demonstrated the potential of Cu-SD pellets in improving the solubility of poorly soluble Cu.
