Amlodipine besylate and amlodipine camsylate prevent cortical neuronal cell death induced by oxidative stress

Complexation of Amlodipine Besylate with β-Cyclodextrin.

In this paper the procedure for the preparation of inclusion compounds of bioactive substance 2-[(2-aminoetoxy)-methyl]-4-(2-chlorophenyl)-1,4-dihydro-6-methyl-3,5-pyridine dicarboxylic acid 3-ethyl-5-methyl esterbenzene sulfonate, called amlodipine besylate with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and their structural characterization was described. Molecular inclusion compound of amlodipine besylate is obt...

Uncoupling proteins prevent glucose-induced neuronal oxidative stress and programmed cell death.

The central role of mitochondria in most pathways leading to programmed cell death (PCD) has focused our investigations into the mechanisms of glucose-induced neuronal degeneration. It has been postulated that hyperglycemic neuronal injury results from mitochondria membrane hyperpolarization and reactive oxygen species formation. The present study not only provides further evidence to support o...

Photodistributed Telangiectasia Induced by Amlodipine

Calcium channel blockers are widely used antihypertensive drugs, which are uncommonly associated with cutaneous reactions, such as pruritus, urticaria, or alopecia. Photosensitivity presenting with telangiectasia has rarely been described. We present here a case of photodistributed telangiectasia induced clinically by amlodipine and histologically by enlarged capillaries in the upper dermis wit...

Stability of Extemporaneously Compounded Amlodipine Besylate Oral Suspensions.

Enhancement of Dissolution Properties of Amlodipine Besylate Using Liquisolid Technique

The most promising method for enhancing solubility, therefore promoting the rate of dissolution is the formation of liquisolid compacts.[2]With Liquisolid technique as described by Spireas liquid formulations such as solutions or suspensions of poorly soluble drugs in a non-volatile liquid vehicle are converted into acceptably flowing and compressible powders, by simple physical blending with s...
