Oral Disintegrating Tablets of Triazolam were formulated with an aim to improve the versatility, patient compliance, and accurate dosing. The formulations ere developed with an objective to use by the pediatric and geriatric patients. Triazolam Oral Disintegrating Tablets were prepared by direct compression method using cross povidone, croscarmellose sodium, sodium starch  glycolate and combinations of CP+CCS, and CP + SSG as super disintegrates exhibited good pre-formulation and tableting properties of three super disintegrates, the formulation contained combination of CP + CCS showed better performance in terms of disintegration time when compared to other formulations. Order of the super disintegrates activity is as follows. (CP + CCS) > (CP + SSG) > CP > CCS >SSG The formulation F15 was found to be the best among all twenty Triazolam ODT formulations because it has exhibited faster disintegration time (17.66 sec) when compared to the other formulations and it showed 99.87±0.18% drug release at the end of 25 min. Triazolam Oral Disintegrating Films were prepared by solvent casting method using different grades of Hydroxypropyl Methyl Cellulose like HPMC – E15, HPMC – 5cps, HPMC – 50cps. Based on disintegration and dissolution results it was concluded that the formulation F15 contained CP 5% + CCS 5% was the best formulation among all otherformulations.

Sumatriptan succinate is a 5-HT1B/1D receptor agonist which has well established efficacy in treating migraine. The main objective of the study was to formulate Oral Fast Disintegrating Films (ODF) and Oral Fast Disintegrating Tablets (ODT) to achieve a better dissolution rate and further improving the bioavailability of the drug.  ODFs were prepared by solvent casting method using film forming polymers like HPMC – E15,5cps,50cps in different ratios & prepared batches of films were evaluated for the drug content, film thickness, disintegration time  and in vitro dissolution studies. Among the prepared formulation F7 containing HPMC – 50cps (drug: polymer ratios = 1:1) was found to be best formulations which releases 98.2±1.1of the drug within 17±0.02 sec. ODTs prepared by direct compression method using in different concentrations of super-disintegrants. The prepared formulation T12 (combination of disintegrants) containing CP + CCS (6%) was considered to be the best formulation, which releases up to 100±0.38% of the drug in 23±0.75 sec, respectively. Based on these results, it is suggested that ODFs have faster disintegration time and drug release than ODTs.

The main objective of this work is to formulate and evaluate Cetirizine HCl MFDT’s using different concentrations of superdisintegrants like croscarmellose sodium (CCS), sodium starch glycolate (SSG) and their combinations in different ratios. The in vitro disintegration time of Cetrizine Hcl prepared by direct compression method by super disintegrates were found to be in the range of 18 to 11sec fulfilling the official requirements. The bulk density and tapped bulk density for the entire formulation blend varied from 0.508 gm/cc to 0.5438 gm/cc and 0.5941 to 0.6408 respectively. The friability was found in all designed formulations in the range 0.42 to 0.74% to be well within the approved range (<1%). The weight variation was found in all designed formulation in the range 97 to 102 mg. The wetting time were found to be in the range of 11 to 18sec. Water absorption ratio for all the formulations found in the range 11 to 16%.combination of sodium starch glycolate and cross carmellose sodium (6% of 25%-ssg&75%ccs)) promotes dissolution rate of drug release when compared to formulation of SSG & CCS alone. It may be due to capillary and wicking mechanism of SSG & CCS.   Keywords:

Objective: To synthesize, characterize and evaluate starch valerate as a superdisintegrant in the formulation of aceclofenac fast dissolving tablets by employing 23 factorial design. Methods: Starch valerate was synthesized and its physical and micromeritic properties were performed to evaluate it. The fast dissolving tablet of aceclofenac was prepared by employing starch valerate as a superdisintegrant in different proportions in each case by direct compression method using 23 factorial design for evaluation of tablet parameters like disintegration and dissolution efficiency in 5 min. Results: The starch valerate prepared was found to be fine, amorphous and free flowing. Starch valerate exhibited good swelling in water with swelling index (125.2%). The study of starch valerate was shown by fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR). The drug content (200±5%), hardness (3.5–4 kg/sq. cm), and friability (<0.15%) has been effective with regard to all the formulated fast dissolving tablets employing starch valerate. The disintegration time of all the formulated tablets was found to be in the range of 14±0.04 to 25.7±0.02 sec. The optimized formulation F4 had the least disintegration time i.e., 12.8±0.02 sec. The wetting time of the tablets was found to be in the range of 76±0.21 to 217±0.17s. The In vitro wetting time was less (i.e., 28±0.02s) in optimized formulation F4. The water absorption ratio of the formulated tablets was found to be in the range of 46±0.12 to 100±0.27%. The percent drug dissolved in the optimized formulation F8 was found to be 99.93% in 5 min. Conclusion: Starch valerate, when combined with sodium starch glycolate, croscarmellose sodium, with aceclofenac, was found to be an effective super disintegrant which improved the dissolution efficiency and could therefore be used in the formulation of quick dissolving tablets to provide immediate release of the contained drug within 5 min.
