Preparation and evaluation of carvacrol pellets based on PVP solid-dispersion by extrusion-spheronization technique
Background and objectives: Carvacrol is one of the main pharmacologically active components of Thymus vulgaris essential oil which has shown several therapeutic effects. There are few works regarding the formulation of essential oils as oral solid dosage forms due to their liquid nature, stability and technical problems. The aim of this study was to combine the solid-d...
متن کاملExtrusion Spheronization –A Review
Compared to single-unit dosage forms, oral multiparticulate drug-delivery systems (e.g. pellets, granules) offer biopharmaceutical advantages in terms of a more even and predictable distribution and transportation in the gastrointestinal tract. There are different pelletization and granulation techniques available to prepare drug loaded spherical particles or granules. Extrusion Spheronization ...
متن کاملDevelopment and evaluation of omeprazole pellets fabricated by sieving-spheronization and extrusion - spheronization process.
Pelletized dosage forms can be prepared by different methods which, in general, are time consuming and labor intensive. The current study was carried out to investigate the feasibility of preparing the spherical pellets of omeprazole by sieving-spheronization. An optimized formulation was also prepared by extrusion-spheronization process to compare the physical parameters between these two meth...
