Objective: The aim of this study was to formulate ketoconazole (keto) as oral floating in situ gel to slow the release of keto in the stomach.Methods: Sodium alginate (Na alginate) was used as a primary polymer in the preparation of the in situ gel and was supported by the following polymers: guar gum (GG), hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) K4M, K15M and carbapol 940 as viscosity enhancing agents. As a consequence, and to complete the gelation process of above formulations was by adding the calcium carbonate (CaCO3). The in situ gels were investigated by the following tests: floating lag time, floating duration, viscosity, drug content, in vitro gelling studies and in vitro release study.Results: The study showed that the faster release was obtained with F1 which contained Na alginate alone. Additionally, reduction in Na alginate concentration resulted in significant increase in drug release. It was also noted that the increase in GG (viscosity enhancing polymer) concentration resulted in non-significant decrease in percent drug release and the reduction in CaCO3 concentration led to significant increase in drug release. Moreover, the release of drug was also affected by grade of viscosity enhancing polymer, the faster release was observed with the formula which contained a polymer of low viscosity (HPMC K4M) and an opposite result was with the high viscosity polymer (HPMCK15M).Conclusion: This study showed the formulation of Na alginate with GG and CaCO3, led to gain floating in situ gel and a sustained release of keto.

Objective: The intent to prepare and evaluate Linezolid in-situ gel in the treatment of periodontitis. Methods: pH-sensitive in-situ gel was formed by the cold method using a varying concentration of the drug, carbopol 934P and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) and carbopol 934P and sodium carboxy methylcellulose (CMC) (1:1,1:1.5,1:2,1:2.5). An optimized batch was selected based on gelling time and gelling capacity. The prepared in-situ gels were evaluated for appearance, pH, gelling capacity, viscosity, in vitro release studies, rheological studies, and finally, was subjected to drug content estimation and antibacterial activity test. Results: FTIR study shows drug and physical mixture were compatible with each other. The rheology of formulated in-situ gel exhibited a pseudoplastic flow pattern. this may be because when polymer concentration was increased the prepared formulations become more viscous and in turn delayed the drug release and from the prepared formulation, LF4 and SF4 have polymer concentrations i. e, 0.9% carbopol and sodium CMC showed drug release up to 12 h. Conclusion: When carbopol is appropriately mixed with other suitable polymers it forms an in-situ gel-forming system that was substantiated by the property to transform into stiff gels when the pH is increased. The in-situ gel was prepared using a combination of carbopol-HPMC and carbopol-Na CMC The formulations LF1 to SF4 showed high linearity (R2 = 0.490-0.682), indicating that the drug was released from the prepared in-situ gel by the diffusion-controlled mechanism. Thus, the formulation of batches LF4 and SF4 containing carbopol: HPMC and carbopol: NaCMC in 1:2 ratios were considered as optimum formulation based on optimum viscosity, gelling capacity and to extend the in vitro drug release.

The objective of this work was to develop a Hydrodynamically Balanced System (HBS) of Metoprolol Succinate (MS) as a model drug for sustained stomach specific delivery. Materials and Methods: Experimental batches were designed according to 3(2) Taguchi factorial design. A total of 9 batches were prepared for batch size 100 capsules each. Formulations were prepared by physically blending MS with polymers followed by encapsulation into hard gelatin capsule shell of size 0. Polymers used were Low Molecular Weight Chitosan (LMWCH), Crushed Puffed Rice (CPR), and Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose K15 M (HPMC K15M). Two factors used were buoyancy time (Y1) and time taken for 60% drug release (T60%; Y2). Results: The drug excipient interaction studies were performed by the thermal analysis method which depicts that no drug excipient interaction occurs. In vitro buoyancy studies and drug release studies revealed the efficacy of HBS to remain gastro retentive for a prolonged period and concurrently sustained the release of MS in highly acidic medium. All formulations followed zero-order kinetics. Conclusion: Developed HBS of MS with hydrogel-forming polymers could be an ideal delivery system for sustained stomach specific delivery and would be useful for the cardiac patients where the prolonged therapeutic action is required.
