EFFECT OF POLYVINYLPYRROLIDONE IN MAN Table 3
نویسنده
چکیده
Intravenous infusion of 500 ml of 6% polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP, average molecular weight 40,000) in isotonic saline solution daily for 2 days induced prompt and significant reductions in serum cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations in eight hyperlipidemic patients. Mean maximal decrements in serum cholesterol and triglyceride were 29% and 28% below control values, respectively, occurring 5 days after infusion of PVP. Mean values for hematocrit and total serum protein concentration were slightly decreased following PVP infusion, but there were no changes in percentage composition of serum proteins, blood sugar, serum sodium and potassium, body weight, and blood pressure. The hypolipidemic effect of PVP persisted beyond the period of plasma volume expansion, as demonstrated by measurement of the plasma volume isotopically and by long-term follow-up in five of the patients.

In this study, several examples of hydrogels and nanocomposite hydrogels based on PVP with different content of montmorillonite nanoclay were prepared. Then, the swelling of hydrogels and kinetics of drug delivery of hydrogel in an environment similar to the body (pH 7.4) were examined. The effect of nanoparticle different percentages on the hydrogel was clearly observed. Then kinetics of drug ...
متن کاملDoes Polyvinylpyrrolidone Improve the Chemical Stability of Cilazapril in Solid State?
In this study a solid dispersion and a physical mixture of cilazapril (CIL) with a biopolymer - polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as a carrier were prepared so as to investigate the effect of PVP on the stability of CIL. CIL is unstable in solid state and decomposes rapidly under humid conditions. It requires stabilization to ensure safety of its use. The studied CIL/PVP formulations were prepared by ...
