The dissolution characteristics of pharmaceutical tablets are key to determining the bioavailability of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and it is therefore vital to understand the physical processes that affect drug release. As well as the API, tablets also consist of a supporting polymer matrix (known as the excipient) and other compounds such as fillers, binders, lubricants etc. Th...

OBJECTIVE Rapid analgesic onset opioids, particularly fentanyl buccal tablet, is preferable for managing breakthrough pain. The efficacy and safety of fentanyl buccal tablet and its association with around-the-clock opioids needs to be explored with an option of dose adjustments, more closely reflecting administration in clinical practice. The aim of the study was to assess the safety and effic...

over the last ten years, robustness of schemes has raised an increasing interest among the cfd community. the objective of this article is to solve the quasi-one-dimensional compressible flow inside a “shubin nozzle” and to investigate bean-warming and flux vector splitting methods for numerical solution of compressible flows. two different conditions have been considered: first, there is a sup...

Proquazone, a poorly wettable compound, was used as a model drug in the search for reasons to develop a capsule or tablet formulation. The capsules were filled with proquazone as active ingredient, with lactose monohydrate (200 mesh) as filler and with magnesium stearate as lubricant. The tablet was made out of a granulate as internal phase which consisted of proquazone as active ingredient, la...

titania nanotubes (tnt) prepared by anodization of ti foils were used for water splitting in a standalone cell. the concentration polarization between the anode side (1m naoh) and cathode side (0.5 m h2so4) ensured that the water splitting reaction could take place with no external bias and separate h2 and o2 evolution could be achieved. the destruction of tnt structures under 365 nm uv irradia...

Background: Aluminum Phosphide or rice tablet is one of the most common pesticides which leads to accidental or intentional acute intoxication and finally death. In this paper, we describe a successful management of intoxication with rice tablet in a young girl. Case presentation: A 14-year-old girl was admitted due to consumption of rice tablet. Gastric washing with two vials of sodium bicarbo...

www.pharmtech.com new chemical entity often is first formulated as a free-flowing granulation for encapsulation within hard gelatin capsules. During the course of clinical development, the drugcontaining granulation usually is modified for compaction into a tablet product. The tablet product subsequently may be film coated for taste masking, identification, or other purposes. Tablets are the mo...
