The objective of the present investigation was to prepare oro dispersible tablets of ondansetron hydrochloride, because of its application in emesis condition, fast onset of action and avoidance of water is highly desirable. Tablets were prepared by direct compression using sodium starch glycolate and croscarmellose as superdisintegrants, as the combination of these two agents gives better disintegration of the tablet. Microcrystalline cellulose was used as diluent and mannitol, mint flavor, sodium saccharine to enhance the organoleptic properties of tablets. The tablets were evaluated for weight variation, mechanical strength, in vitro disintegration time, in vivo disintegration time, wetting time, and drug release characteristics. Hardness and friability data indicated good mechanical strength of tablets.  The results of in vitro disintegration time and in vivo disintegration time indicated that the tablets dispersed rapidly in mouth within 3 to 5 seconds. Dissolution study revealed faster release rate of ondansetron hydrochloride from the tablets as compared to pure drug and marketed conventional tablet formulation of ondansetron hydrochloride. It was concluded that superdisintegrants addition technique is a useful method for preparing oro dispersible tablets by direct compression method

Fast dissolving oral delivery systems are solid dosage forms, which disintegrate or dissolve within 1 minute in the mouth without drinking water or chewing. Mouth dissolving film (MDF) is a better alternate to oral disintegrating tablets due to its novelty, ease of use and the consequent patient compliance. The purpose of this work was to develop mouth dissolving oral films of palonosetron HCl, an antiemetic drug especially used in the prevention and treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. In the present work, the films were prepared by using solvent casting method with various polymers HPMC E3, E5 & E15 as a film base synthetic polymer, propylene glycol as a plasticizer and maltodextrin and other polymers. Films were found to be satisfactory when evaluated for thickness, in vitro drug release, folding endurance, drug content and disintegration time. The surface pH of all the films was found to be neutral. The in vitro drug release of optimized formulation F29 was found to be 99.55 ± 6.3 7% in 7 min. The optimized formulation F29 also showed satisfactory surface pH, drug content (99.38 ± 0.08 %), disintegration time of 8 seconds and good stability. FTIR data revealed that no interaction takes place between the drug and polymers used in the optimized formulation. In vitro and in vivo evaluation of the films confirmed their potential as an innovative dosage form to improve delivery and quick onset of action of Palonosetron Hydrochloride. Therefore, the mouth dissolving film of palonosetron is potentially useful for the treatment of emesis disease where quick onset of action is desired, also improved patient compliance.

The objective of present work was to develop taste masked orodispersible tablets of mirabegron. Mirabegron is beta 3 adrenoceptor agonist used to treat overactive bladder. Overactive bladder (OAB) is defined as a symptom syndrome showing feeling of urgency to urinate, typically accompanied by frequent daytime and nocturnal urination, in the absence of proven infection or other obvious pathology. Over active bladders are generally common in geriatrics. Moreover, this drug has a very strong bitter taste. Frequent dosing requires frequent water intake, which further aggregates the condition of over active bladder and bitter taste of drug affects patient compliance. Hence a need arises to mask the bitter taste for development of an ODT which does not require consuming water with every dosage. In this work, the bitter taste of mirabegron was masked by forming a complex with an ion exchange resin tulsion 344. The drug resin complexation process was optimized for resin activation, drug: resin ratio, soaking time and stirring time. In –vitro release studies revealed complete drug elution from the complex within 10 minutes in pH 1.2 buffer. The taste-masked complex was then formulated into palatable orodispersible tablets using a direct compression approach by use of superdisintegrants to achieve a rapid disintegration. The tablets were evaluated for weight variation, hardness, friability, drug content, wetting time, In- vivo disintegration time and in-vitro dissolution time.

Objective: This study aims to prepare and optimize indomethacin freeze-dried sublingual tablets (IND-FDST) by utilizing a quality by design (QbD) approach to achieve rapid drug dissolution and simultaneously bypassing the GIT for better patient tolerability. Methods: A screening study was utilized to determine the most significant factors which the quality attributes, namely disintegration time and % friability. Then an optimization study was conducted using a full response surface design to determine the optimized formula by varying the amount of the matrix-forming polymer (gelatin) and super disintegrant (croscarmellose sodium (CCS)). The variables' effect on the % friability, disintegration time, wetting time, and amount of drug release after 10 min (%Q10) was studied. The optimized formula was tested for compatibility, morphology as well as stability studies under accelerated conditions in addition to the in vivo pharmacodynamics in rats. QbD was adopted by utilizing a screening study to identify the significant formulation factors followed by a response surface optimization study to determine the optimized IND-FDST formulation. Results: Optimized IND-FDST comprised of gelatin/CCS combination in a ratio of 1:1 possessed adequate %friability (0.73±0.03%), disintegration time (25.40±1.21 seconds), wetting time (3.49±0.68 seconds), and % Q10 (100.99±5.29%) as well as good stability under accelerated conditions. IND-FDST also showed significant inhibition of edema, tumour necrosis factor-alpha, and interleukin-6 release in vivo compared to the oral market product by 70%, 42%, and 65%, respectively. Conclusion: QbD presents a successful approach in the optimization of a successful IND-FDST formula that showed superior in vivo and in vitro characteristics.

Clobazam orally dissolving strips were prepared by solvent casting method. A full 32 factorial design was applied for optimization using different concentration of film forming polymer and disintegrating agent as independent variable and disintegration time, % cumulative drug release, and tensile strength as dependent variable. In addition the prepared films were also evaluated for surface pH, folding endurance, and content uniformity. The optimized film formulation showing the maximum in vitro drug release, satisfactory in vitro disintegration time, and tensile strength was selected for bioavailability study and compared with a reference marketed product (frisium5 tablets) in rabbits. Formulation (F6) was selected by the Design-expert software which exhibited DT (24 sec), TS (2.85 N/cm2), and in vitro drug release (96.6%). Statistical evaluation revealed no significant difference between the bioavailability parameters of the test film (F6) and the reference product. The mean ratio values (test/reference) of Cmax (95.87%), tmax (71.42%), AUC0−t (98.125%), and AUC0−∞ (99.213%) indicated that the two formulae exhibited comparable plasma level-time profiles.

Compression of cohesive, poorly compactable, and high-dose metformin hydrochloride into the orally disintegrating tablet (ODT) is challenging. The objective of this study was to develop metformin ODT using the moisture activated dry granulation (MADG) process. There are no reports in the literature regarding the development of ODT based on MADG technology. The feasibility of developing metformin ODT was assessed utilizing a 32 full factorial design to elucidate the influence of water amount (X1) and the amount of pregelatinized starch (PGS; X2) as independent variables on key granules and tablets’ characteristics. The prepared granules and tablets were characterized for granule size, bulk density, flow properties, tablets’ weight variation, breaking force, friability, capping tendency, in vitro and in vivo disintegration, and drug release. Regression analysis showed that X1 and X2 had a significant (p ≤ 0.05) impact on key granules and tablets’ properties with a predominant effect of the water amount. Otherwise, the amount of PGS had a pronounced effect on tablet disintegration. Optimized ODT was found to show better mechanical strength, low friability, and short disintegration time in the oral cavity. Finally, this technique is expected to provide better ODT for many kinds of high-dose drugs that can improve the quality of life of patients.
