Formulation and Invitro Evaluation of Hydrogel Matrices of Gliclazide Modified Release Tablets
نویسندگان
چکیده
The work aimed at developing a modified release hydrogel formulation of poorly soluble drug, Gliclazide using a retardant hydrophilic polymer HPMC in two grades i.e., HPMC 15 cps and Methocel K4M. All six formulations were developed and evaluated for the in-vitro drug release up to 16hrs and compared with that of the marketed formulation. GMF VI was found to have similar release pattern proving to show controlled release following zero order release by anomalous diffusion. The similarity and Dissimilarity factors were found to be 1.12 and 93.99 respectively. Thus the formulation was found to be advantageous in reducing the dosing intervals and enhancing the patient compliance.

The objective of the study was to compare pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters of gliclazide after administration of immediate (IR) and modified release (MR) tablets. The experiment included rats with both normoglyceamia and streptozocin (STZ)-induced hyperglyceamia. Several MR formulations were designed and in vitro drug release profile was assessed by a dissolution test. For the fur...

The present investigation deals with the development of controlled release tablets of salbutamol sulphate using graft copolymers (St-g-PMMA and Ast-g-PMMA) of starch and acetylated starch. Drug excipient compatibility was spectroscopically analyzed via FT-IR, which confirmed no interaction between drug and other excipients. Formulations were evaluated for physical characteristics like hardness,...

Formulation of gliclazide in the form of extendedrelease tablet in 30 and 60 mg dosage forms was performed using hypromellose (HPMC K4M) as a retarding agent. Drug-release profiles were investigated in comparison with references Diamicron MR 30 and 60 mg tablets. The effect of size of powder particles, the amount of hypromellose in formulation, hardness of tablets, and also the effect of halvin...
