Pulsatile drug delivery systems are time-controlled dosage forms which are designed to release the active pharmaceutical ingredient after a predetermined lag time to synchronize the disease circadian rhythm. A migraine shows circadian rhythm with a marked increase in attacks between 6 a.m. and 8 a.m. Sumatriptan is a selective agonist at serotonin (5-Hydroxy tryptamine1  (5-HT1))receptors, is an effective treatment for acute migraine attacks. The aim of this work is to prepare time-controlled press-coated tablet with a lag time of 5.45 hrs. Six formulas of fast dissolving core tablets and three formulas of press-coated tablets were prepared by using direct compression method using different variables to prepare core tablets which include: different types and concentrations of superdisintegrants While different concentrations of natural and synthetic polymers were utilized in the preparation of press-coated tablets. The obtained results showed that formula  F4 of core tablet, which contained 25 mg of sumatriptan, 5% w/w sodium starch glycolate and avicel PH 102 as the diluent, was the selected formula that gave the fastest and complete release of sumatriptan. Also, formula C3 of the press-coated tablet, which contained pectin: EC100 mpa.s: HPMCK15M in concentration30mg: 10mg:160mg respectively, was selected as the best coating layer since it gave 5.45  hours lag time.

A method for the development of press coated tablet of atenolol for pulsatile delivery was investigated for chronotherapy of hypertension. Effect of viscosity of Hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC) on pulsatile release of atenlol was studied by press coating atenolol core tablet using different viscosity grade HPC and varying coat weight. L-HPC, M-HPC and H-HPC viscosity garde with 75, 100 and 150 mg coat weight were press coated over atenolol core tablets to delay release of atenolol. The batches, HP1-HP9, exhibited an increase in lag time in response to increase in viscosity and coat weight. Two of the batches HP5 and HP7 have shown a burst release of atenolol after 6.5 and 6.0 h lag time respectively, which is suitable for pulsatile drug delivery of atenolol for chronotherapy of hypertension.

Objective: The main objective of the present study was to design and evaluate a time-controlled single unit oral pulsatile drug delivery system containing salbutamol sulfate for the prevention of nocturnal asthma attacks.Methods: Drug containing core tablets (C1-C10) with different composition of superdisintegrants such as sodium starch glycolate, croscarmellose sodium, and crospovidone were prepared by direct compression technique. The fast disintegrating core tablet formulation was selected, and press-coated tablets (P1-P11) were prepared with different compositions of hydrophobic and hydrophilic polymers: Ethylcellulose-20 (EC-20), hydroxypropyl methylcellulose K4M, and low substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose (L-HPC LH11). The coating polymers were selected and quantified based on in vitro lag time and drug release profile in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids.Results: Formulation C10 with 7.5% crospovidone showed least disintegrating time, i.e., 0.31 min and was selected as the best immediate release core tablet. The press-coated tablet formulation P11 having 360 mg barrier layer of EC-20 and L-HPC LH11 in ratio 14:1 over the core tablet C10 showed rapid and complete drug release nearly after 6 h lag time. Accelerated stability studies of the optimized formulation P11 indicated no significant difference in release profile after a period of 6 months.Conclusion: The in vitro dissolution study showed that lag time before drug release was highly affected by the coating level and nature of coating polymer used. Time-controlled pulsatile release tablets can be prepared using press-coating techniques.

Since rheumatoid arthritis patients experience severe pain, inflammation, and joint stiffness in the early morning hours a pulsatile drug delivery system of a suitable anti-inflammatory drug that is administered at bedtime but release the drug in the early morning would be a promising system. The objective of this work was to develop a pulsatile release tablet containing a combination of ibuprofen and ranitidine HCl from which ibuprofen gets released after a lag time of 6-7 hours. The methodology involves; analytical method development for simultaneous estimation of combination drugs, development of pulsatile release tablet and an in vivo study in rats. Lag time was controlled by coating the rapid release core tablet with different grades and concentrations of HPMC polymer. A floating gastroretentive layer was applied on top to prevent metabolism of ranitidine at the last part of the intestine. Six different formulations were prepared with three different concentrations of HPMCK4M and HPMCK100M. In vitro studies showed that the lag time increased with an increase in both concentration and viscosity of polymers. The formulation where the core tablet was coated with 100 mg of HPMCK100M had an optimum lag time of 6.3 hrs. In vivo study evaluated the ulcer protection of the formulation in four animal groups; first group remained as control, the second group received ibuprofen at a dose of 180 mg/kg, third and fourth groups received a combination of both the drugs but ranitidine in different doses. Based on this research, it can be concluded that pulsatile release of ibuprofen tablets can be successfully formulated by using HPMC polymers. The usage of ranitidine along with ibuprofen reduces the ulcerogenecity of the later.

The main objective of this study was to formulate and evaluate of Bio-adhesive pulsatile drug delivery system of Telmisartan, an anti-hypertensive drug in order to achieve better therapeutic efficacy and patient compliance. The approach of combination of bio-adhesive pulsatile formulation is suitable for gastro retention and time specific drug delivery. The study was carried by preparation of fast disintegrating core tablet followed by incorporation of core tablet to design bio-adhesive pulsatile tablet by press coating. The press coated tablet was prepared with the polymersethyl cellulose and carbopol. The formulation was evaluated for precompression and post compression parameters, lag time, drug release and bio-adhesive study. All evaluation parameters were found within limits. The lag time expected for this disease was 8 hours as need of drug release for this disease was more likely to act in early morning. The 8 hour lag time was obtained in optimized formulation which has shown muco-adhesion for the same period. Thus bio-adhesive pulsatile drug delivery system could be the best precautionary alternative for the drugs having maximum absorption in stomach and used for diseases which follows circadian rhythm.

Objective: The objective of this research work was to develop and evaluate the floating– pulsatile drug delivery system (FPDDS) of meloxicam intended for Chrono pharmacotherapy of rheumatoid arthritis. Methods: The system consisting of drug containing core, coated with hydrophilic erodible polymer, which is responsible for a lag phase for pulsatile release, top cover buoyant layer was prepared with HPMC K4M and sodium bicarbonate, provides buoyancy to increase retention of the oral dosage form in the stomach. Meloxicam is a COX-2 inhibitor used to treat joint diseases such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. For rheumatoid arthritis Chrono pharmacotherapy has been recommended to ensure that the highest blood levels of the drug coincide with peak pain and stiffness. Result and discussion: The prepared tablets were characterized and found to exhibit satisfactory physico-chemical characteristics. Hence, the main objective of present work is to formulate FPDDS of meloxicam in order to achieve drug release after pre-determined lag phase. Developed formulations were evaluated for in vitro drug release studies, water uptake and erosion studies, floating behaviour and in vivo radiology studies. Results showed that a certain lag time before drug release which was due to the erosion of the hydrophilic erodible polymer. The lag time clearly depends on the type and amount of hydrophilic polymer which was applied on the inner cores. Floating time and floating lag time was controlled by quantity and composition of buoyant layer. In vivo radiology studies point out the capability of the system of longer residence time of the tablets in the gastric region and releasing the drug after a programmed lag time. Conclusion: The optimized formulation of the developed system provided a lag phase while showing the gastroretension followed by pulsatile drug release that would be beneficial for chronotherapy of rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.

The objective of this study was to prepare and evaluate chronotherapeutic drug delivery systems (ChrDDs) of torsemide. Compression coated tablets (CCT) containing torsemide in the core tablet were prepared by the compression coating technique with different grades of polyethylene oxide (PEO WSR 301 & 1105). The optimized formulations were characterised for tabletting parameters and drug polymer interaction by Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR).The hardness of all the CCT using PEO WSR 301 & PEO WSR 1105 were in the range 6-8 kg/cm² & 5.5 to 7 kg/cm² respectively. Their friability values were <0.3%. All the CCT showed a clear lag time but finalized as per the predetermined lag time. As the amount of PEO was increased in the outer layer the drug released was delayed. The drug content of all the CCT was >99%. The FTIR studies showed no interaction throughout the process of development. Formulations of F7 and of P7 were considered optimized formulations since they yielded a predetermined lag time of 6h before burst release. Hence, these formulations can be exploited to achieve chronotherapeutic drug delivery systems of Torsemide for the treatment of hypertension at the time the patient needs it.
