A sustained release dosage form of Metformin HCl in the form of microspheres was prepared by the solvent evaporation method. Solvent evaporation method was attempted in both aqueous as well as oily manufacturing vehicles. Different polymers such as Ethyl Cellulose, Eudragit RS PO, Eudragit RL PO, Eudragit S 100, Eudragit RL 100 and different combinations of these polymers were tried and the res...

Polymers constitute the major part of pharmaceutical formulations functionality and significance. Development of novel drug delivery system (NDDS) has been made possible by eudragit polymers to modify the release pattern of drug. The basic objective of sustained drug release is to achieve more effective therapies by eliminating potential for both under and overdosing. Other advantages include m...

Effervescent multiple-unit floating drug delivery systems (muFDDSs) consisting of drug (lorsartan)- and effervescent (sodium bicarbonate)-containing pellets were characterized in this study. The mechanical properties (stress and strain at rupture, Young's modulus, and toughness) of these plasticized polymeric films of acrylic (Eudragit RS, RL, and NE) and cellulosic materials (ethyl cellulose (...

In the present study, a capsule formulation composed of enteric coated granules of Lactobacillus acidophilus ATCC 4962 was developed using Eudragit L30D-55 as enteric polymer. Optimization of the capsule formulation was achieved with a maximum viable cell count after 2 h of incubation in acid medium and disintegration time of 1 h in buffer pH 6.8. The amount of Eudragit L30D-55 in the capsules ...

In this paper, different formulation types of microparticulate systems such as beads, microbeads, microspheres and microsponges using to special attention chitosan, alginate and eudragit RS 100 are reviewed. Chitosan and alginates are natural, anionic or cationic, biocompatible, biodegredable and non-toxic polymers. They have excellent potential for pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical applicat...

The effect of Eudragit RSPO on the photostability venlafaxine in a physical mixture and as melt was studied. A validated ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometry method used to determine content alongside degradation products. most likely structures products were determined by spectrometry. samples evaluated before after exposure ultraviolet differential scanning calorimet...

Emulsion-solvent evaporation technique was used to prepare Diclofenac sodium (DS) loaded Kollidon® SR (KSR) microspheres. Cellulosic polymers (HPMC 6 cps, 15 cps) and polymethacrylic polymers (Eudragit E100, Eudragit RL PO, and Eudragit RS PO) were added with KSR at 10% wt/wt of KSR. The effect of these polymers on drug content, particle size, surface morphology and DS release rate was evaluate...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of Ammonio Methacrylate Copolymer Dispersion Type A (Eudragit RL 30 D) and Ammonio Methacrylate Copolymer Dispersion Type B (Eudragit RS 30 D) combination in different weight ratios on the release kinetics of Ambroxol Hydrochloride from coated pellets. Microcrystalline cellulose, lactose, maize starch, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and ...

Objective. The purpose of the recent study was to prepare and estimate sustained release of Ethylcellulose (300 cps) and Eudragit (RS 100 and RL 100) microparticles containing Propranolol hydrochloride used as a treatment of cardiovascular system, especially hypertension. Method. Propranolol hydrochloride was microencapsulated with different polymers (Ethylcellulose, Eudragit RS, and Eudragit R...

In order to develop the polymer materials having temperature-sensitive and high biological safety, Eudragit RS-PO and polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG 400) blend polymers (EPG) were prepared. The EPGs that have the glass transition temperature (Tg) at around the body temperature were prepared by the addition of 5--13% PEG 400 to Eudragit RS. As glassy polymers are not in thermodynamic equilibrium b...
