Hypertension or high blood pressure occurs when the high cardiac output exerts pressure on the arterial wall as the blood flow increases. Bi-layer tablets are prepared with one layer of drug for immediate release while second layer designed to release drug later, either as second dose or in an extended release manner. Bi-layered tablet is suitable for sequential release of two drugs in combination, separate two incompatible substances, and also for sustained release tablet in which one layer is immediate release as initial dose and second layer is maintenance dose. Bilayer tablet is suitable for sequential release of two drugs in combination, separate two incompatible substances and also for sustained release tablet in which one Layer is immediate release as initial dose and second layer is maintenance dose. The preparation of tablets in the form of multi layers is used to provide systems for the administration of drugs.

The present work involves the formulation development, optimization and In-vitro evaluation of bilayer tablet containing Lansoprazole in the immediate release layer and Amoxycillin in the sustained release layer, using sodium starch glycolate as a super disintegrant for the immediate release layer and the hydrophilic matrix HPMC K100M, hydrophobic matrix Ethyl cellulose are used in the sustained release layer. Bilayer tablet showed as initial burst effect to provide dose of immediate release layer Lansoprazole to control the acid secretion level and the sustained release of Amoxycillin for 24 hours. Immediate and sustained release tablets were formulated by wet granulation method because of the poor flow property of the blends. The prepared bilayer tablet was evaluated for their precompression parameters, physical characteristics like hardness, friability, uniformity of weight, uniformity of drug content, swelling index, In-vitro floating studies and In-vitro drug release. The release of the lansoprazole from the immediate release layer was found to be 97.46 ± 0.15% in 15minutes. The release of Amoxycillin Trihydrate for the sustained release floating layer was found to be 98.25 ± 0.14% in 12 hours. Lansoprazole potentiate the effect of Amoxycillin. Hence the bilayer tablets of Lansoprazole and Amoxycillin were used to improve patient compliance towards the effective management of ulcer. Keywords: bilayer tablet, Lansoprazole, and Amoxycillin, sustained release

Objective: Adequate glycemic control in diabetes patients requires oral combination therapy. Saxagliptin is a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor having less adverse effects and metformin is a first line medicine for diabetes treatment. The aim of this research work is to develop a bilayer tablet of saxagliptin and metformin in fixed dose combination (FDC) using quality by design (QbD) to acquire immediate release of saxagliptin and sustained release of metformin from bilayer tablet to ultimately achieve superior patient compliance. Methods: The development of the bilayer tablet was done in four stages using QbD. In first step, quality target product profile (QTPP) of bilayer tablet was defined and critical quality attributes (CQAs) were identified by risk estimation matrix and taguchi design, an immediate release saxagliptin layer was optimized in second step, optimization of sustained release metformin layer was carried out in third step and in final step bilayer tablet was prepared and characterized. The effect of independent parameters i.e. magnesium stearate level (X1), kneading time (X2) and lubrication time (X3) on Carr’s Index (Y1), percentage relative standard deviation of content uniformity (Y2) and drug release at 30 minute (Y3) were estimated for optimization of immediate release saxagliptin layer using Box-Behnken design (BBD). The effect of independent parameters i.e. hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose level (X4), compritol level (X5) and magnesium stearate level (X6) on Carr’s Index (Y4), drug release at 2 h (Y5), drug release at 5 h (Y6) and drug release at 10 h (Y7) were estimated for optimization of sustained release metformin layer using BBD. Results: The optimized composition of immediate release saxagliptin layer estimated using numerical optimization by Design expert was 0.88% (X1), 15 minutes (X2) and 3.85 minutes (X3) with predicted variables i.e. 10.59% (Y1), 3.16% (Y2) and 85% (Y3). The optimized composition of sustained release saxagliptin layer predicted through numerical optimization was 30% (X4), 3.36% (X5) and 0.9% (X6) having 10.89 % (Y4), 43.44 % (Y5), 60% (Y6) and 85.14% (Y7). In-vitro dissolution study of bilayer tablet showed immediate release of Saxagliptin (approximately 85% in 30 minute) and sustained release of metformin illustrating 43.21±1.21, 60.86±2.96 and 86.26±1.38% drug release at 2, 5 and 10 h, respectively. The release exponent for Korsmeyer-Peppas model for Saxagliptin and metformin was 0.237 (<0.45) and 1.536 (n>0.85) indicating Fickian and super case II transport drug release behavior, respectively. Conclusion: By QbD approach, bilayer tablet containing saxagliptin and metformin was successfully developed and influence of various formulation parameters on CQAs of drug products was understood with fewer experiments. This leads to conclusion that cost can be reduced using QbD in development of FDC for improving patient compliance.

The objective of the current study was to develop a bilayer tablet of Azithromycin containing both immediate and sustained layer and evaluate the effect of formulation variables on drug release. Thirty different formulations (F-1 to F-30) were prepared by direct compression. When the fraction of polymer was increased from 5.55% to 10%, the rate of drug release was found to be slower. Maximum release of Azithromycin was from F-11 (within 8 hours), which contained 50 mg (5.55%) of HPMC 50 cps. Slowest release was observed from F-30 containing 90 mg (10%) of Carbopol 974 P. The IR spectral analysis revealed that all rate regarding agents and excipients used in this study are compatible with the active Azithromycin.Dhaka Univ. J. Pharm.
