The goal of this study was to formulate and evaluate norfloxacin sustained release tablets. Norfloxacin sustained release tablets were prepared by wet granulation method using two polymers such as HPMC K 100 M (hydrophilic polymer) and guar gum (natural polymer) and with three polymer ratios (0.5, 1.0 and 1.5). The prepared granules were evaluated to preformulation studies such as angle of repose, bulk density, tapped density, bulkiness, compressibility index and Hauser’s ratio. All the parameters shows that the granules having good flow properties. Then the formulated tablets were taken to evaluation studies such as hardness, weight variation, friability, drug content and thickness. All the parameters were within the acceptable limits. IR spectral analysis showed that there was no interaction between the drug and polymers. The in vitro release study was performed in phosphate buffer pH 7.4 at 293 nm. The in vitro release study showed that if the polymer ratio is increased, then the release of the drug is prolonged. HPMC K 100M shows a prolonged release when compared to guar gum.

Objectives. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of formulation factors on in vitro release of ketoprofen from sustained release inert matrix tablets. Materials and methods. Laboratory scale, Ketoprofen sustained release inert matrix tablets were manufactured using Kollidon® SR as matrix formator, by direct tableting of powder blends. The influence of the formulation factors (X1 – matrix formator excipient and X2 – diluent type) on in vitro release of ketoprofen from sustained release tablets was studied by using a full factorial 23 experimental plan. Outcomes. Pharmacotechnical characterization of manufactured laboratory scale batches was performed and all 12 batches fulfilled European Pharmacopeia requests. In vitro release showed a sustained release profile in all cases. Variance analysis (ANOVA) showed a good correlation between experimental conditions and answers. In vitro release testing was performed in phosphate buffer pH = 7.4. Percentage release was determined spectrophotometrically at 258 nm. A decrease in the rate of in vitro release was registered, up to 4 h and 6 h when lactose DC and mannitol DC were used as diluents, respectively. Isomalt DC has increased the rate of in vitro release up to 6 h. Conclusions. In vitro release data, corresponding to formulation N1 shoed a good fitting with Weitbull, Korshmeyer-Peppas and Higuchi models while in vitro release data corresponding to formulation N8 presented a good fitting with Weitbull and Korsmeyer-Peppas. In case of formulations N1 and N8 a non-Fickian diff usion mechanism seems to be involved in drug release from the matrix tablets.

The present study involves in the formulation and evaluation of sustained release tablets of Voriconazole (250mg). The objective of the present study was to formulate Voriconazole sustained release tablets by wet granulation method by using natural (Xanthan gum, Karaya gum) and semi synthetic polymers (HPMC K100M). Lactose was used as diluting agent, Magnesium stearate was used as a lubricant and Talc was used as a glident. These sustained release tablets can release the drug up to 12 hours in predetermined rate. The formulated powder blend was evaluated for bulk density, tapped density, compressibility index and angle of repose. The formulated tablets were evaluated for physical characteristics of sustained release tablets such as thickness, hardness, friability, weight variation and drug content. The results of the formulations found to be within the limits specified in official books. The tablets were evaluated for In-vitro drug release studies by using USP type I dissolution test apparatus. The dissolution test was performed in 0.1 N HCL for 2 hr and phosphate buffer pH 6.8 for 10hrs. The in-vitro cumulative drug release profile of all formulations F1-F10 at 12 hours showed 84.25% to 99.82% drug release, respectively. From the data it was clear that by increasing the amount of polymer in the formulation the amount of drug release was decreased. Hence, Formulation F9 was the most promising formulation as it gives satisfactory release (99.82%) for 12 hours and F9 found to be the best formulation.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/icpj.v2i10.16410 International Current Pharmaceutical Journal, September 2013, 2(10): 165-169
