INTRODUCTION Domperidone is a unique compound with gastro kinetic and antiemetic effects. It is used in the management of disorder by impaired motility like gastroesophageal reflux (in some instances), gastroparesis, dyspepsia, heartburn, epigastric pain, nausea, vomiting, and colonic inertia. The sustained release system is a widely accepted approach for slow drug release over an extended period to address the challenges of conventional oral delivery, including dosing frequency, drug safety, and efficacy. The study aims to formulate a domperidone sustained release tablet and compare the dissolution rate with the marketed formulations. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sustained release matrix tablets of domperidone were prepared by wet granulation method using different polymers such as HPMC K4M, ethyl cellulose, Gum acacia. Pre-compression studies like angle of repose, bulk density, tapped density, Carr's index, and Hausner’s ratio, and post-compression studies like weight variation, thickness, hardness, friability, drug content, and in-vitro drug release were evaluated.   RESULTS The release profile of domperidone sustained-release tablets was studied spectrophotometrically. The in-vitro dissolution study suggests the minimum %-cumulative drug release with 98.33% in F5. The %-cumulative drug release was maximum in F3 with 99.69%. The in-vitro drug release of all the formulations was non-significant compared to the marketed formulation (p<0.05), exhibiting the sustained-release property by all the formulations. CONCLUSION The pre-compression study concludes the better flow property of the granules of different formulations. The sustained release domperidone tablets were prepared successfully by the wet granulation method. The post-compression parameters of different formulations were within the acceptable range.

Objective: To develop a novel colon targeted tablet formulation using natural polysaccharides such as kondagogu gum and ghatti gum as carriers and diltiazem hydrochloride as a model drug.Methods: The polymer-drug tablets were prepared by wet granulation technique, coated with two layers viz., inulin as an inner coat followed by shellac as outer coat and evaluated for properties such as average weight, hardness and coat thickness. In vitro release studies of prepared tablets were carried out for 2 h in pH 1.2 HCl buffer, 3 h in pH 7.4 phosphate buffer and 6 h in simulated colonic fluid (SCF) in order to mimic the conditions from mouth to colon.Results: Percentage weight variation, percent friability and content of active ingredient for all the formulations were found to be well within United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) limits. Out of both the polymers, the tablets prepared with ghatti gum showed the maximum hardness of 7.1 kg/cm2. The FTIR spectra of pure diltiazem HCl and the formulation KF3 were found to be identical. From the DSC, it was evident that the melting point peak of diltiazem HCl and formulation KF3 were observed at 217.16 and 218.34 °C respectively. In vitro studies revealed that the tablets coated with shellac (2.5% w/w), prevented the drug release in stomach environment and inulin coated tablets (4% w/w) have limited the drug release in the small intestinal environment. The data obtained from in vitro drug release studies were fit into Peppas model and in all the cases the value of A was found to be more than 2, i.e., drug release by a combination of both diffusion and erosion-controlled drug release.Conclusion: The study revealed that polysaccharides as carriers and inulin and shellac as a coating material can be used effectively for colon targeting of drugs for treating local as well as systemic disorders.

The objective of the present study was to develop once-daily sustained-release matrix tablets of naproxen, one of the most potent non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents used in the treatment of arthritic pain. The tablets were prepared by direct compression method using hydrophilic matrix materials like Methocel® K4M CR and Methocel® K15M CR. The tablets were subjected to measurement of thickness, diameter, weight variation, drug content, hardness and friability, the results of which were within compendial specification range. In vitro release studies were carried out by the USP basket method and were carried out at pH 7.4 buffer for ten hours. The results of dissolution studies indicated that higher polymer content in the matrix (40%) decreased the release rate of the drug as shown in formulation NMK4MF6 and NMK15MF6 (where lactose content is zero). The most successful formulations of the study, exhibited satisfactory drug release which was very close to the theoretical release profile. All the formulations exhibited diffusion-dominated drug release. Key words: Naproxen; Methocel® K4M CR; Methocel® K15M CR; Sustained release; Matrix tablets DOI: 10.3329/dujps.v9i1.7429 Dhaka Univ.

Metformin hydrochloride is a first line BCS class III oral anti-diabetic drug used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. The main goal of this study was to formulate, prepare and evaluate natural gum-based immediate release metformin hydrochloride tablet. Seven different formulations of compressed tablets were prepared following wet granulation process using different concentrations (10, 20, 30, 50, 60, 70, 80 and 90 mg) of Aegle marmelos gum as a binder. Aegle marmelos gum is a biodegradable natural gum which is economic, easily available and found useful as tablet binder for both conventional and novel dosage forms. Other excipients used in the formulation were microcrystalline cellulose (MCC), croscarmellose sodium (CCS), maize starch, colloidal silicon dioxide (CSD), sodium starch glycolate (SSG), magnesium stearate etc. In the present study, the compressed tablets were evaluated for weight variation, thickness, hardness, friability, disintegration time and dissolution. In vitro drug release study was carried out in phosphate buffer (pH 6.8) at 37 ± 0.5oC with 50 rpm using USP Dissolution Apparatus 2-Paddle method. The flowability of granules for all the batches was optimum which reflected in the bulk density and angle of repose. It can be concluded from this study that combination of Aegle marmelos as a binder with other excipients can be prospectively used in the preparation of metformin hydrochloride immediate release (IR) tablet.Bangladesh Pharmaceutical Journal 21(2): 101-108, 2018
