Esomeprzole and naproxen are available in tablet dosage form in the ratio 1:25. Two simple, accurate, precise and economic methods; simultaneous equation method and multicomponent method have been described for the simultaneous estimation of esomeprzole and naproxen in tablet dosage form. Absorption maxima of esomeprzole and naproxen in distilled water were found to be 301.0 nm and 262.0 nm res...

In order to manage medicine distribution in an appropriate manner, there is a necessity of deep understanding of its management. The challenges of the pharmaceutical products supply chain are its specified shelf life and specified storage conditions. Managing quality of medicines during distribution is a critical operation. There are various dosage forms of medicines eg tablets, syrups, injecta...

The purpose of this study was to obtain a nicorandil pulsatile release tablet that has a well-regulated release lag time. When nicorandil is used as an antiangina drug, administration time control is important. A pulsatile release tablet is one of the effective approaches to modified release to reduce daily administration frequency. In this study, a pulsatile release tablet of nicorandil was fo...

The gastrointestinal transit of pharmaceutical dosage forms has been measured in 201 studies in normal subjects using gamma scintigraphy. Solutions, small pellets, and single units (matrix tablets and osmotic pumps) were administered with different amounts of food in the stomach, ranging from fasted state to heavy breakfast. Gastric emptying was affected by the nature of the dosage form and the...

The pharmaceutical area can present some opportunities for mechanical engineers to develop a vast type of dosage forms particularly novel forms like nanoparticles. The classical education of mechanics needs some alterations to prepare appropriate education courses in this regard. In order to present some views about this issue, we collect some information around the importance of mechanical eng...

a special type of silica-based columns has been recently introduced into the market which is called narrow-bore columns. they have lower internal volume than the standard high-performance liquid chromatography (hplc) columns and thus reduce the solvent consumption by almost 80%.    a simple, accurate and environmentally friendly reversed phase- hplc (rp-hplc method) which could be used in fast ...

Objective: The present work was undertaken with the aim to develop and validate a rapid and consistent stability indicating RP-HPLC in which the peaks will be appear with short period of time as per ICH Guidelines. The proposed method was simple, fast, accurate and precise method for the Quantification of drug in the dosage form, bulk drug as well as for routine analysis in Quality control. Met...

A simple and reliable stability-indicating RP-HPLC method was developed and validated for analysis of adefovir dipivoxil (ADV).The chromatographic separation was performed on a C18 column using a mixture of acetonitrile-citrate buffer (10 mM at pH 5.2) 36:64 (%v/v) as mobile phase, at a flow rate of 1.5 ml/min. Detection was carried out at 260 nm and a sharp peak was obtained for ADV at a reten...

Methods to produce nano-sized organic molecular crystals in thin films are of great interest in the pharmaceutical industry due to the potential benefit of increased solubility of poorly soluble drugs and the advantages of film-based dosage forms over traditional tablet/capsule-based dosage form. One method to directly form organic nanocrystals is by crystallization in confined environments whe...
