Polymeric Matrix System for Prolonged Delivery of Tramadol Hydrochloride, Part I: Physicochemical Evaluation

Polymeric composite membranes for temperature and pH-responsive delivery of doxorubicin hydrochloride

Objective(s): Nowadays hydrogels are one of the upcoming classes of polymer-based controlled-release drug delivery systems. Temperature and pH-responsive delivery systems have drawn much attention because some diseases reveal themselves by a change in temperature and/or pH. The objective of this work is to prepare and characterize composite membrane using responsive nanoparticles into a polymer...

Design and Evaluation of Diclofenac Sodium Megaloporous Matrix System Aimed for Colonic Drug Delivery

     Megaloporous controlled release tablets of diclofenac sodium (DS) were prepared with two kinds of granules. One of them is the restraining-phase matrix granule (RMG) and it controls the release rate of the drug. The other one is the soluble housing-phase matrix granule (HMG) and controls liquid penetration into the system. Carnauba wax and Eudragit L 100 polymers were used to constitute th...

Preparation and Evaluation of Sustained Release Matrix Tablets of Tramadol Hydrochloride Using Glyceryl Palmitostearate

Purpose: To prepare oral sustained release matrix tablets of a highly water soluble drug, tramadol hydrochloride, and to evaluate the effect of concentration of the hydrophobic polymer content and method of preparation on drug release. Methods: The tablets were a mixture of both tramadol hydrochloride and glyceryl palmitostearate (GP) prepared by melt granulation (MG1, MG2, MG3 and MG4 in ratio...

Formulation and evaluation of verapamil hydrochloride transmucosal drug delivery system

Verapamil hydrochloride is an antihypertensive agent which undergoes extensive first pass metabolism making it a possible candidate for buccal delivery. Verapamil mucoadhesive buccal patches were prepared using hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, Eudragit RL 100, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and carbopol. The physicochemical interactions between verapamil and physical mixture were investigated by ...
