Ambroxol Hydrochloride

In this paper a simplified dissolution test was performed for the release of ambroxol from tablets according to the European Pharmacopoeia. In vitro, three different dissolution media; 0.1 M HCl pH 1.2, acetate buffer (ABS) pH 4.5 and phosphate buffer (PBS) pH 6.8 were used for the simulation of the gastrointestinal conditions at temperature of 37.0?0.5?C. The drug release was evaluated by a new ultra - high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) - tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) method. The method was validated to meet requirements as per ICH guidelines which include linearity, specificity, precision, accuracy and robustness. The corresponding dissolution profiles showed more than 80% drug release within 30 minutes without significant differences. Further, the developed and validated UHPLC-MS/MS method could find a useful application in the process of production, quality control and bioavailability/bioequivalence studies of new pharmaceutical formulations of drugs in order to achieve a safe therapeutic efficacy.

The aim of the present work was to develop sustained release Lornoxicam matrix tablets with polymers like HPMC K15M, Ethyl cellulose, and Crospovidone as carriers in varying quantities. Direct compression was used to make matrix tablets. Various assessment parameters, such as hardness, friability, thickness, percent drug content, weight variation, and so on, were applied to the prepared formulations. In vitro dissolution studies were carried out for 24 hrs. The tablets were subjected to in-vitro drug release in (pH 1.2) for first 2 hrs. Then followed by (pH 6.8) phosphate buffer for next 22 hrs. And the results showed that among the six formulations FL3 showed good dissolution profile to control the drug release respectively. The drug and polymer compatibility were tested using FT-IR spectroscopy, which revealed that the drug was compatible with all polymers. It is also required to design an appropriate prolonged release formulation for Lornoxicam in order to maintain the drug's release. Hence by using the compatible polymers sustained release tablets were formulated and subjected for various types of evaluation parameters like friability, hardness, drug content and dissolution behaviour. Finally, the findings reveal that the prepared sustained release matrix tablets of lornoxicam have improved efficacy and patient compliance.

The aim of the present study was to formulate solid dispersion (SD) of Mesalamine to enrich the aqueous solubility and dissolution rate. Mesalamine is used in the management of acute ulcerative colitis and for the prevention of relapse of active ulcerative colitis. In the present study, Solid dispersion of Mesalamine was prepared by Fusion and Solvent evaporation method with different polymers. SD’s were characterized by % practical yield, drug content, Solubility, FT-IR, PXRD (Powder X- ray diffractometry), SEM (Scanning electron microscopy), in vitro dissolution studies and Stability studies. The percent drug release of prepared solid dispersion of Mesalamine by fusion and solid dispersion method (FM47, FM67, SE47 and SE67) in 1:7 ratio was found 81.36±0.41, 86.29±0.64, 82.45±0.57and 87.25±1.14 respectively. The aqueous solubility and percent drug release of solid dispersion of Mesalamine by both methods was significantly increased. The PXRD demonstrated that there was a significant decrease in crystallinity of pure drug present in the solid dispersions, which resulted in an increased aqueous solubility and dissolution rate of Mesalamine.The significant increase in aqueous solubility and dissolution rate of Mesalamine was observed in solid dispersion as the crystallinity of the drug decreased, absence of aggregation and agglomeration, increased wetability and good dispersibility after addition of PEG 4000 and PEG 6000.

Dissolution Profile

In vitro dissolution profiles are increasingly used to evaluate drug release characteristics of pharmaceutical products. The dissolution methods is expected to be an appropriate tool for checking consistency of the pharmaceutical attributes by discriminating similarities and dissimilarities between different drug formulations. Expansion in development of novel “special” dosage forms, due to the manner in which these dosage forms release the active pharmaceutical ingredient, usually requires applying non-compendial dissolution strategy that differs from the traditional compendial recommendations. For demonstrating sameness in the dissolution profile, in vitro drug release comparison between test and reference product of highly viscous oral suspension by applying non-compendial peak vessel against conventional hemispheric vessel was demonstrated in this study. All reference batches exhibited high variability in dissolution data when using hemispheric vessel due to forming mound compact mass at the bottom of the vessel. Different strategies for samples manipulation, before and during dissolution period, were performed in order to eliminate additional variabilities. Modifications of conventional USP 2 apparatus such as using peak vessel provided with more reproducible and reliable result for distinguishing in vitro similarities between different formulations of oral suspensions. Misinterpretation of dissolution data can lead to negative impact on product development. Taking time to observe and evaluate what is happening to the product in the vessel during dissolution is of curtail consideration for proper selection of the dissolution strategy.

Polymorphic Forms

Polymorphism is a relatively common phenomenon among pharmaceutical compounds, and one of the main aspects to be considered in the production and development of medications. The investigation of polymorphism associated with oxicams, a group belonging to the class of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has increased in recent years and, in the case of tenoxicam, the existence of four polymorphic forms is reported in the literature. The objective of this study was to characterize the presence of different polymorphic forms of tenoxicam in active pharmaceutical ingredient and oral pharmaceutical formulations, as well as to evaluate the influence on in vitro dissolution. The characterization of the three samples of pharmaceutical ingredient of tenoxicam from different suppliers by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Infrared (IR) and dissolution profile indicated the presence of a form III crystalline structure, without presenting significant differences between the in vitro dissolution profiles analyzed, and a Dissolution Efficiency (DE%) of 60.30%, 60.70% and 72.34%, respectively. When the four pharmaceutical specialties of tenoxicam were submitted to XRD analysis, they also presented form III crystalline structures. Despite this, the formulations presented different dissolution profiles and a DE% of 75.23%, 83.69%, 78.19% and 90.63%, respectively, without compromising their quality. However, often polymorphism affects physico-chemical properties of drugs, showing the importance of studying this phenomenon, by correlating the presence of crystalline structures to alterations in the quality of active ingredients and pharmaceutical products.

Objective: The objective of the current research is systematic optimization and development of microemulsion preconcentrates to get better solubility that results in improvement of oral bioavailability profile of Telmisartan utilizing D-optimal mixture design. Methods: Solubility studies in a variety of lipidic ingredients and optimization of formulations were carried out for the development of liquid SMEDDS. D-optimal mixture design was utilized for assessing the interaction performance of desired responses (such as % cumulative drug release and globule size) and optimized using desirability approach. The optimized batch was evaluated for its % cumulative drug release and globule size performance for determining the dissolution rate and oral bioavailability of drug. Results: The optimized batch (F-8), which contained 10% oil (Capmul MCM EP), 45% surfactant (Labrasol) and 45% co-surfactant (Transcutol HP) resulted in desired qualities of measured responses with 84.6nm globule size and 98.5% drug release within 15 minutes. Optimized SMEDDS showed brilliant goodness of fit between drug release. Stability studies indicated stability of the optimized SMEDDS batch over 3-month storage at 40°C/75% RH and improved dissolution rate in contrast to pure API. The optimized SMEDDS showed no impact of in vitro lipolysis on drug release. Conclusion: Developed and optimized SMEDDS showed improved in vitro dissolution rate and dissolution profile in contrast to pure drug. These investigations further confirm dose reduction in SMEDDS by gaining an equivalent therapeutic profile with non-SMEDDS formulation. This research work successfully shows the potential usage of SMEDDS for delivery of BCS-II class drugs.

Gastro retentive drug delivery systems have been widely used to prolong the retention of dosage forms in the stomach. Among the various approaches, the floating in-situ gelling formulation offers sustained drug release as well as prolonged gastric retention, along with the added advantage of the liquid oral dosage form. The present study was an attempt to formulate and evaluate floating in situ gel of Eplerenone by using various polymers like Xanthan gum, Carbopol, HPMC K100M, and Karaya gum which undergoes pH dependant sol-gel transition at gastric pH, thereby prolonging the retention of the system in the stomach. Sodium alginate a natural polymer was employed as a gelling agent where Gelation is triggered by the source of calcium ions in the form of calcium carbonate. Drug and polymers were subjected for compatibility study using FTIR studies, which revealed that there was no interaction between drugs and polymers. The evaluation was carried out for invitro parameters such as gelling nature, Total floating time, drug content, viscosity, & in vitro dissolution studies. Among all the formulations, the F12 formulation containing HPMC K100M was chosen as an optimized formulation that shows maximum drug release by the end of 12hrs and has excellent floating characteristics and gastric retention. From kinetic studies, the optimized formulation shows zero-order release with super case II transport mechanism.
