In the present study, design of oral immediate release tablets of Valsartan by direct compression technique was carried out. The main aim and objective of the work is to formulate immediate release tablets using different direct compression vehicles (DCV’S) in different ratios. The main motive is to compare the dissolution profile of these formulations and conclude the best formulation which release drug at a faster rate. To determine the best fit dissolution profile for the dosage forms. Valsartan tablets were formulated by using microcrystalline cellulose (diluents), potato starch, acacia (binder) and magnesium stearate (lubricant). The granules were compressed into tablets and were subjected to dissolution studies. The dissolution profile of the formulation F2 was found to have better dissolution rate compared to others. The In-vitro dissolution studies of all the formulations were conducted and the results were obtained, it was concluded that formulation F2 was the best with fast release of drug compared to others.

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.

Orally disintegrating tablets (ODT) disintegrate quickly with saliva when administered into the oral cavity and taken without water or chewed. ODT are easy to take for children and the elderly, who may experience difficultly in taking ordinary oral preparations such as tablets, capsules, and powders.  The ODT threes substantial benefits for the patient (or elder) who cannot swallow (Dysphagia), or who is not permitted water intake due to disease. The reason of the current research was to prepare taste masking oral disintegrating tablets of poorly soluble lornoxicam (LXM) by direct compression technique using Kyron T-114 (cation exchange resin) as a taste masking agent. With in various ratios the Drug-resin of 1:4 was established to present best taste masking. The superdisintegrants used in formulation are croscarmellose sodium and cross povidone. Among these croscarmellose sodium demonstrated superior drug release. The tablets were evaluated for friability, weight variation, wetting time, hardness, disintegration time and uniformity of content. Optimized formulations were evaluated for in vitro dissolution test. Amongst all the formulations F-6 was found to be most successful tablets prepared by this technique had disintegration time of 30sec and % CDR 94.78 within 30min. Hence, this advance can be utilized for taste masking of bitter pharmaceutical ingredients leading to superior patient compliance.

Formulation development is an important part of drug design and development. Bioavailability and bioequivalence are totally dependent on formulation development. Now-a-days formulation development is done by following QbD (Quality by Design).The aim of present study is to formulate Gemfibrozil (Gem) sustained release (SR) and immediate release (IR) bilayer tablet by different concentration of Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) and HPMC K 100 M to control the release pattern. The sustained release layer of Gem was prepared by using different grades of HPMC like, HPMC K-15, HPMC K-4 along with other excipients by direct compression technique. The immediate release layer of Gem was prepared by Cross carmellose sodium, Crospovidone and Sodium starch glycolate by direct compression technique. The powders were evaluated for their flow properties and the finished tablets were evaluated for their physical parameters. The both immediate release and sustained release layers of Gem were characterized by FT-IR and in vitro dissolution studies. The drug release study of Gem was evaluated using USP-II paddle type dissolution apparatus. The release rate of Gem in immediate release layer was studied for 15 min in 0.1 N HCL media and that of Gem in sustained release layer was studied for 12 h in 0.1 N HCL. From the nine batches F6 batch showed good release behaviour 99.85% of drug is released over 12 hours. Gem belongs to BCS Class II (log P 3.6) with poor solubility and high permeability resulting in limited and variable bioavailability. Total four trial batches of each drug have been manufactured to optimize and develop a robust and stable formulation, the stability studies of the products also comply with ICH guideline. Keywords: Bilayer floating tablets, Gemfibrozil, Biphasic drug release, HPMC K 15.

The objective of this study was to enhance the solubility of Methylprednisolone by choosing micronized form of drug and to enhance patient compliance by formulating it as dispersible tablets using quality by design (QbD) approach. Dispersible tablets of Methylprednisolone were developed by 23 factorial design. In this study independent variables were concentrations of MCC 102, CCS and Magnesium stearate and dependent variables were disintegration time, hardness and dissolution. The resulting data was fitted into Design Expert Software (Trial Version) and analyzed statistically using analysis of variance (ANOVA). The response surface plots were generated to determine the influence of concentration of MCC 102, CCS and magnesium stearate on responses. The tablets were prepared by direct compression method by choosing micronized form of drug and formulations were evaluated for the standard of dispersible tablets. Results showed that no significant drug-polymer interactions in FTIR studies. According to QbD suggestion the formulation O1 (Desirability- 0.73) with MCC-38mg, CCS-3.5mg and magnesium stearate-2.5mg was formulated and evaluated. The disintegration time was found to be 69 seconds, hardness was found to be 64N and in vitro dissolution with in 30minutes. Optimized O1 formulation was within the limits of standards of dispersible tablets with increased water solubility and better patient compliance. Stability study on optimized O1 formulation showed that there is no significant changes during study period. Thus, O1 formulation was found to be stable. The study indicates that formulation of Methylprednisolone dispersible tablets by using QbD approach is a promising formulation development method. Keywords: Dispersible tablets, Methylprednisolone, Direct compression, Quality by Design and ANOVA.


This study aims to evaluate different products of meloxicam Table; Five meloxicam immediate-release generic products (15 mg Tables) were compared with the innovator, reference product, (Mobic®, Boehringer) to find the interchangeable product with the innovator product. Different physical tests were conducted including weight uniformity, thickness, diameter, hardness, friability and disintegration test. In addition, prediction of in-vivo behavior was assessed by measuring the dissolution profile of meloxicam for all the products. Similarity factor (f2) was calculated to compare between the dissolution profile of the generic products with the dissolution profile of innovator product. The results revealed that all the studied products are complied with the British Pharmacopoeia requirements. However, not all of them showed similar in-vitro profile to the brand product. Four out of five generic products, included in this study, showed similarity in dissolution profile to the brand one, which indicates possible bio-equivalency, with the advantages of money saving of using such generic products. One generic product showed similarity factor less than 50, which might give an indication that this generic product is not capable to be bioequivalent with the brand (innovator) product. Overall, this study can be considered an important applicable study that gives an indication about the in-vivo performance of different products. In addition, the study demonstrates the applicability of a simple in-vitro dissolution study as a surrogate way of assessing product bioavailability instead of an expensive and complicated in-vivo bioequivalent study.

Background: The bioavailability of a drug in a solid oral dose depends on its release from the drug product and its balance in dissolution. Compared with a reference drug, the newly developed formulation needs to establish bioequivalence by comparing the dissolution profile. Objective: To compare dissolution profiles of a newly developed maraviroc oral disintegration tablet and the reference Axentri® tablet. The current research was designed to establish and validate an integral analytical consistency by Quality by Design (QbD) approach to quantify maraviroc from dissolution samples using the RP-HPLC method. Methods: Maraviroc was formulated into an orally disintegrating tablet using a direct compression technique at different concentrations of sodium starch glycolate as super disintegrants and talc and magnesium stearate as glidants. The dissolution test in 0.1N HCl was performed according to standard procedures to predict bioequivalence. The results of dissolution tests were analyzed using the QbD Box Behnken Design multivariate RP-HPLC method. Results: The optimized formulation (F2) was selected as it showed 90% drug release in 5 min and a disintegration time of 22 sec with dissolution profiles to the marketed reference to meet the FDA requirements of f2 similarity factor statistics. The integrated analytical QbD method was statistically analyzed by ANOVA, counter-plot, and 3D response surface plots, which demonstrated that the model is statistically significant. The developed method was validated as per ICH guidelines Q2 (R1). Conclusion : In conclusion, maraviroc oral disintegrating tablets have been well prepared, and superior statement consistency is established by the implementation of the QbD analytical method for orally disintegrating tablet excellence and adoption.
