Objective: To develop a novel colon targeted tablet formulation using natural polysaccharides such as kondagogu gum and ghatti gum as carriers and diltiazem hydrochloride as a model drug.Methods: The polymer-drug tablets were prepared by wet granulation technique, coated with two layers viz., inulin as an inner coat followed by shellac as outer coat and evaluated for properties such as average weight, hardness and coat thickness. In vitro release studies of prepared tablets were carried out for 2 h in pH 1.2 HCl buffer, 3 h in pH 7.4 phosphate buffer and 6 h in simulated colonic fluid (SCF) in order to mimic the conditions from mouth to colon.Results: Percentage weight variation, percent friability and content of active ingredient for all the formulations were found to be well within United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) limits. Out of both the polymers, the tablets prepared with ghatti gum showed the maximum hardness of 7.1 kg/cm2. The FTIR spectra of pure diltiazem HCl and the formulation KF3 were found to be identical. From the DSC, it was evident that the melting point peak of diltiazem HCl and formulation KF3 were observed at 217.16 and 218.34 °C respectively. In vitro studies revealed that the tablets coated with shellac (2.5% w/w), prevented the drug release in stomach environment and inulin coated tablets (4% w/w) have limited the drug release in the small intestinal environment. The data obtained from in vitro drug release studies were fit into Peppas model and in all the cases the value of A was found to be more than 2, i.e., drug release by a combination of both diffusion and erosion-controlled drug release.Conclusion: The study revealed that polysaccharides as carriers and inulin and shellac as a coating material can be used effectively for colon targeting of drugs for treating local as well as systemic disorders.

The Matrix

The objective of the present study was to develop once-daily sustained-release matrix tablets of naproxen, one of the most potent non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents used in the treatment of arthritic pain. The tablets were prepared by direct compression method using hydrophilic matrix materials like Methocel® K4M CR and Methocel® K15M CR. The tablets were subjected to measurement of thickness, diameter, weight variation, drug content, hardness and friability, the results of which were within compendial specification range. In vitro release studies were carried out by the USP basket method and were carried out at pH 7.4 buffer for ten hours. The results of dissolution studies indicated that higher polymer content in the matrix (40%) decreased the release rate of the drug as shown in formulation NMK4MF6 and NMK15MF6 (where lactose content is zero). The most successful formulations of the study, exhibited satisfactory drug release which was very close to the theoretical release profile. All the formulations exhibited diffusion-dominated drug release. Key words: Naproxen; Methocel® K4M CR; Methocel® K15M CR; Sustained release; Matrix tablets DOI: 10.3329/dujps.v9i1.7429 Dhaka Univ.

This work aims at investigating different types and levels of hydrophilic high molecular weight matrix agents, (including HPMC K15M, Metalose-60 SH, Metalose-65 SH and Metalose-90SH-SR), hydrophobic diluent (Talc) and formulation methods (Non-aqueous granulation and direct filling by simple mere mixture) in an attempt to formulate hard gelatin extended release matrix capsules containing Trihexyphenidyl HCl (Benzhexol). The drug release from all the extended release matrix capsules show polymer as well as talc concentration dependent retardation affect. The Metalose 90SH-SR concentration was optimized to approximately 27% w/w of total capsule net content weight. The hydrophobic diluent’s talc concentration was optimized and the useful concentration was approximately 17.45% w/w of the total net capsule content weight. The lactose concentration was also optimized and the effective concentration was found to be approximately 48.36% w/w. The prepared hard gelatin extended release capsules were evaluated for weight variation, Average net content, locked length, content uniformity, assay (drug content) and in-vitro drug release studies. From the in-vitro release studies of the prepared formulations, one formula was optimized from each method. All the formulations showed linear release profiles and extended the release of trihexyphenidyl HCl (Benzhexol) over 10 –12 h. The release profiles of extended release matrix capsules of trihexyphenidyl HCl (THP HCl) from the selected formulations were close to zero order and follow diffusion dependent release. The prepared extended release matrix capsules of trihexyphenidyl HCl (Benzhexol) produced from the optimized formulations ‘NAG-M90SH-SR-5 and DB M90SH-SR-4’ complied with the USP XXVII specifications. The difference factor (f1) and similarity factor (f2) was calculated for all these formulations and found to the below 15 and above 50. Irrespective of the formulation method type and its procedure, the prepared hydrophilic extended release matrix capsules showed non-Fickian anomalous transport (coupled diffusion in the hydrated matrix and polymer relaxation) as the values of release exponent (n) are in between 0.50 and 0.89. Finally it was clear that it is possible to design a formulation with any of the above two methods giving the desired drug release profile suggesting that nonaqueous granulation, Direct filling were good methods for preparing extended release matrix capsules of trihexyphenidyl HCl (Benzhexol).

IBD is a chronic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract, particularly small and large intestine consisting of ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD). Oral route of drug delivery is considered as the most appropriate route of drug delivery of drugs. But this route has certain limitations of poor bioavailability due to gastric degradation and increase in dose size and frequency. Therefore, the present aim of the study is to prepare and evaluate Indomethacin loaded matrix tablet using guar gum, HPMC (release controlling polymer) and citric acid to facilitate the drug solubility in the colon. A total 8 different formulations were prepared by wet granulation method and coated with Eudragit S 100 polymer a pH dependent enteric coating polymer which dissolve at colonic pH (7.4) and specifically release the drug in the colon region in sustain release fashion. The granules evaluated for its micrometrics properties and tablets were evaluated for its hardness, thickness, friability, weight variation, drug content, and in‑vitro drug release studies. The % cumulative drug release profile of all tablets was little and insignificant at pH 1.2 and 6.8. In colonic pH the coating dissolves tablets starts to release drugs. Among all the formulation the formulation F3 having guar gum and HPMC ratio 3:1 shows a maximum release of drug of 80.41±6.5%. At 24 h. The study demonstrated that the prepared tablets can release the Indomethacin in sustained release manner and helps in management of IBD with reduced side effect of the therapy. The results of this study show that oral administration of aspartame (250mg/kg body weight) was correlated to a significant increase in the lipid profile, fasting blood glucose and some marker enzymes and this increase is time related.

The aim of present work was to develop once daily sustained release matrix tablet of aceclofenac by wet granulation technique using natural gums i.e.: gum acacia, guar gum and Xanthan gum. In this present study matrix tablets were prepared using three different methods and a comparative study was done. Aceclofenac sodium being the newer derivative of diclofenac having short biological half life (4hrs.), so it requires more than one dose per day to maintain therapeutic dose. The prepared tablets were evaluated for various parameters like weight variation, hardness, swelling index, friability, percent drug release and various release profile like zero order, first order, Higuchi's, and Koshemeyrs-peppa. All the evaluation parameters met pharmacopoeial specifications and through dissolution studies it was matrix tablets prepared with method 2 shows heighest percent drug release and matrix tablet prepared by method 3 showed lowest percent drug release at the end of 8 hrs. (Shown in fig. 8, comparative release study of all three formulations). Matrix tablet of aceclofenac were successfully prepared and evaluated and it can be concluded that matrix tablet prepared with natural gums showed release rate for a prolonged time and can be of great importance for “once daily” tablet to reduce side effects and toxicity related with NSAIDs.
