Major Advance

Objective: Now a days as very few antidiabetic drugs are coming out of research and development and some existing drugs are showing several side effects when administered orally, multiple times in a day, hence change in the operation is a suitable and optimized way to make some drug more effective by slight alteration in the drug delivery. Matrix type drug delivery systems of an antidiabetic drug like Metformin Hydrochloride, is an interesting and promising option when developing an oral sustained release system Methods: An appropriately designed controlled release drug delivery system can be a major advance towards solving problems concerning the targeting of a drug to a specific organ or tissue and controlling the rate of drug delivery to the target sites. This research work is made in designing of sustained release dosage form of Metformin Hydrochloride by wet granulation method employing both Xanthan Gum and Hydroxy Propyl Methyl Cellulose (HPMC K4M) as a rate controlling polymer. Results: The development of oral sustained release systems has been a challenge to formulation scientists due to their inability to restrain and localize the system at targeted areas of the gastrointestinal tract. From all the formulation trial batches, formulation F7 shows the best results. It has been observed that HPMC K4M alone cannot give satisfactory drug release profile but the blend of HPMC K4M and Xanthan gum together give the best drug release kinetics. Conclusion: The drug release mechanism from the matrix tablets follows Fickian diffusion with first order kinetics. Thus, sustained release matrix tablets of metformin hydrochloride can be expected to reduce the frequency of administration and decrease the dose dependent side effects

 Objective: The aim of this investigation was to develop and optimize metformin hydrochloride matrix tablets for sustained release application. The sustained release matrix tablet of metformin hydrochloride was prepared by wet granulation technique using chitosan, xanthan gum, and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose at varying concentrations.Material and Methods: Extended release of metformin hydrochloride matrix tablets was prepared by wet granulation method. The influence of varying the polymer ratios was evaluated. The excipients used in this study did not alter physicochemical properties of the drug.Results: All the batches were evaluated for thickness, weight variation, hardness, and drug content uniformity. The in vitro drug dissolution study was carried out using USP apparatus Type II, paddle method, and the release mechanisms were explored. Mean dissolution time is used to characterize drug release rate from a dosage form and indicates the drug release is retarding efficiency of the polymer. This study revealed that as the concentration of matrix material increased, drug release from matrices decreased. This may be due to slower penetration of the dissolution medium into the matrices.Conclusion: Formulation with chitosan MS1 drug release was 86%, xanthan gum MS489%, and finally MS7 with hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose which exhibited the highest drug release retardation also had the lowest matrix concentration. Hence, lower concentration of polymers is suitable to prepare metformin hydrochloride tablets compared to higher concentrations.

<p>Sustained release Carvedilol matrix tablets constituting Kollidon SR were developed in this study in an attempt to investigate the effect of release modifiers on the release profile of Carvedilol from matrix. Three matrix tablet formulations were prepared by direct compression of Kollidon SR in combination with release modifier (HPMC and Microcrystalline Cellulose) and magnesium stearate. Tablets containing only Kollidon SR with the active ingredient demonstrated a rapid rate of drug release. Incorporation of HPMC in the matrix tablet prolonged the release of drug but incorporation of Microcrystalline Cellulose showed superimposable release pattern with an initial burst effect as confirmed by mean dissolution time and Higuchi release rate data. After 7 hours of dissolution, Carvedilol release from the matrix systems were 91.42%, 83.41%, from formulation F1 and F2 respectively. Formulation F3 exhibited 100 % release at 4 hours. All the tablet formulations showed acceptable pharmaco-technical properties and complied with the in-house specifications for tablet weight variation, friability, hardness, thickness, and diameter. Prepared tablets also showed sustained release property for carvedilol. The drug release mechanism from the matrix tablets of F1 and F2 was found to be followed by Fickian and F3 by Non-Fickian mechanism.</p><p>DOI: <a href="http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/icpj.v1i8.11095">http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/icpj.v1i8.11095</a></p> <p>International Current Pharmaceutical Journal 2012, 1(8): 186-192</p>

Mucoadhesive Tablets

The present investigation focuses on the development of mucoadhesive tablets of captopril which are designed to prolong the gastric residence time after oral administration. Matrix tablets of captopril were formulated using four mucoadhesive polymers namely guar gum, xanthan gum, HPMC K4M and HPMC K15M and studied for parameters such as weight variation, thickness, hardness, content uniformity, swelling index, mucoadhesive force and in vitro drug release. Tablets formulated Xanthan gum or HPMC K4M with HPMC K15M provide slow release of captopril over period of 12 hr and were found suitable for maintenance portion of oral controlled release tablets. The cumulative % of drug release of formulation F9 and F10 were 90 and 92, respectively. In vitro release from these tablets was diffusion controlled and followed zero order kinetics. The ‘n’ values obtained from the pappas-karsemeyer equation suggested that all the formulation showed drug release by non-fickian diffusion mechanism. Tablets formulated Xanthan gum or HPMC K4M with HPMC K15M (1:1) were established to be the optimum formulation with optimum bioadhesive force, swelling index & desired invitro drug release. This product was further subjected to stability study, the results of which indicated no significant change with respect to Adhesive strength and in vitro drug release study.

The present study was undertaken to develop sustained release (SR) matrix tablets of losartan potassium, an angiotensin-II antagonist for the treatment of hypertension. The tablets were prepared by direct compression method, along with Kollidon SR as release retardant polymer. The amount of losartan potassium remains fixed (100 mg) for all the three formulations whereas the amounts of Kollidon SR were 250 mg, 225 mg, and 200 mg for F-1, F-2, and F-3 respectively. The evaluation involves three stages: the micromeritic properties evaluation of granules, physical property studies of tablets, and in-vitro release kinetics studies. The USP apparatus type II was selected to perform the dissolution test, and the dissolution medium was 900 mL phosphate buffer pH 6.8. The test was carried out at 75 rpm, and the temperature was maintained at 37 ºC ± 0.5 ºC. The release kinetics was analyzed using several kinetics models. Higher polymeric content in the matrix decreased the release rate of drug. At lower polymeric level, the rate and extent of drug release were enhanced. All the formulations followed Higuchi release kinetics where the Regression co-efficient (R²) values are 0.958, 0.944, and 0.920 for F-1, F-2, and F-3 respectively, and they exhibited diffusion dominated drug release. Statistically significant (P<0.05) differences were found among the drug release profile from different level of polymeric matrices. The release mechanism changed from non-fickian (n=0.489 for F-1) to fickian (n=0.439 and 0.429 for F-2, and F-3 respectively) as a function of decreasing the polymer concentration. The Mean Dissolution Time (MDT) values were increased with the increase in polymer concentration.

Objective: The objective of the present study was to develop sustained release matrix tablets of levosulpiride by using natural polymers.Method: The tablets were prepared with different ratios of Chitosan, Xanthan gum and Guar gum by wet granulation technique. The solubility study of the levosulpiride was conducted to select a suitable dissolution media for in vitro drug release studies.Results: Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) study revealed no considerable changes in IR peak of levosulpiride and hence no interaction between drug and the excipients. DSC thermograms showed that no drug interaction occurred during the manufacturing process. In vitro dissolution study was carried out for all the formulation and the results compared with marketed sustained release tablet. The drug release from matrix tablets was found to decrease with increase in polymer ratio of Chitosan, Xanthan gum and Guar gum.Conclusion: Formulation LF3 exhibited almost similar drug release profile in dissolution media as that of marketed tablets. From the results of dissolution data fitted to various drug release kinetic equations, it was observed that highest correlation was found for First order, Higuchi’s and Korsmeyer equation, which indicate that the drug release occurred via diffusion mechanism.  Keywords: Levosulpiride, sustained release tablets, natural polymers, in vitro drug release studies

Evaluation Parameters

Oral drug delivery is the most widely utilized route of administration among all the routes that have been explored for systemic delivery of drugs via pharmaceutical products of different dosage form. Oral route is considered most natural, uncomplicated, convenient and safe due to its ease of administration, patient acceptance and cost-effective manufacturing process. Gastroretentive drug delivery system was developed in pharmacy field and drug retention for a prolonged time has been achieved. The goal of this study was to formulate and in-vitro evaluate Ciprofloxacin HCl controlled release matrix floating tablets. Ciprofloxacin HCl floating matrix tablets were prepared by wet granulation method using two polymers such as HPMC K100M (hydrophilic polymer) and HPMC K15M. All the Evaluation parameters were within the acceptable limits. FTIR spectral analysis showed that there was no interaction between the drug and polymers. In-vitro dissolution study was carried out using USP dissolution test apparatus (paddle type) at 50 rpm. The test was carried out at 37 ± 0.5 0C in 900ml of the 0.1 N HCl buffer as the medium for eight hours. HPMC K100M shows a prolonged release when compared to HPMC K15M. These findings indicated that HPMC K100M can be used to develop novel gastroretentive controlled release drug delivery systems with the double advantage of controlled drug release at GIT pH. On comparing the major criteria in evaluation such as preformulation and in vitro drug release characteristics, the formulation F8 was selected as the best formulation, as it showed the drug content as 99±0.4% and swelling index ratio was 107.14, and in-vitro drug released 61.31±0.65% up to 8 hours. Results indicated that controlled Ciprofloxacin HCl release was directly proportional to the concentration of HPMC K100M and the release of drug followed non-Fickian diffusion. Based on all the above evaluation parameters it was concluded that the formulation batch F8 was found to be best formulation among the formulations F1 to F8 were prepared.
