Mathematical analysis of drug delivery from swellable systems with partial physical restrictions or impermeable coatings
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mathematical analysis is presented of the water transport and drug release from hydrophilic tablets coated with impermeable coatings. Numerical solutions are provided for a number of cases of partial coating. It is shown that depending on the restriction provided to the tablets by the coating, Fickian or non-Fickian transport can be

Swelling characteristics of hydrophilic matrices for controlled release New dimensionless number to describe the swelling
Drug release mechamsms of swellable systems for controlled drug administration were investigated The variations of the matrix relaxation and drug diffusion rates were quantified, by measuring the surface area exposed during matrix swelling and drug release as a function of impermeable coating coverage and location. Four different types of matrices, partially coated on various sides, were invest...
متن کاملSustained Release Matrix Type Drug Delivery System: a Review
These are the type of controlled drug delivery systems, which release the drug in continuous manner by both dissolution controlled as well as diffusion controlled mechanisms. To control the release of the drugs, which are having different solubility properties, the drug is dispersed in swellable hydrophilic substances, an insoluble matrix of rigid non swellable hydrophobic materials or plastic ...
متن کاملUtilization of hydrophilic swellable polymers as carriers for sustained drug delivery from matrices and three layer tablet systems.
The purpose of this research was to develop and evaluate different sustained release preparations, using swellable polymers as carriers in the form of matrices and three-layer tablets. These preparations may offer a number of therapeutic advantages over immediate release dosage forms in drug delivery. The materials used for the fabrication of these systems were hydrophilic swellable polymers na...
متن کاملDesign, Development and Evaluation of Pulsatile Drug Delivery System of Eprosartan Mesylate for Chronopharmacotheraphy
INTRODUCTION Pulsatile Drug delivery systems are gaining a lot of interest as they deliver the drug at the right site of action at the right time and in the right amount, thus providing spatial and temporal delivery and increasing patient compliance. Pulsatile Drug Delivery systems are basically time-controlled drug delivery systems in which the system controls the lag time independent of envir...

Background and aim: Eczema is a common inflammatory skin disease. Although history and physical examination are important in diagnosis of allergen, because of extent of environmental allergens, those are not simply recognized. The objective of this study was to determine allergens in patients with contact or atopic dermatitis referred to Razi hospital.Materials and Meth...
