Ketorolac is a potent non-steroidal drug with potent analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity. Its oral administration is associated with a high risk of adverse effects such as irritation, ulceration and bleeding of gastrointestinal tract. The present study focuses on the development of controlled release drug delivery system of ketorolac microcapsules as one of the multi-particulate formulatio...

Transdermal patches of carvedilol with a HPMC-drug reservoir were prepared by the solvent evaporation technique. In this investigation, the membranes of Eudragit RL100 and Eudragit RS100 were cast to achieve controlled release of the drug. The prepared patches possessed satisfactory physicochemical characteristics. Thickness, mass and drug content were uniform in prepared batches. Moisture vapo...

Objective of present study involves preparation and evaluation of floating microballoons of indometacin as a model drug, to increase its residence time in the stomach without contact with the mucosa. The microballoons were prepared by the emulsion solvent diffusion technique using different ratio of acrylic polymers (Eudragit RS100 and Eudragit S 100) as carriers. The yield of microballoons was...

Objective: Azelnidipine, a long-acting dihydropyridine based calcium channel blocker, on oral administration, the drug undergoes extensive first pass metabolism. Delivery of azelnidipine (AZP) via transdermal route would minimize some of the deficiencies associated with the oral delivery and increase the bioavailability of the drug. In the present study, is to investigate the development and ev...

The success in the preparation of Eudragit RS100 microspheres in 0.IN HCI solution using gelatin as antiaggregating agent, encouraged the selection of an acidic drug to be encapsulated using a solvent evaporation technique [1]. Ibuprofen is a non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic drug approved for use as adjunct therapy in the treatment of rheumatoid and osteoarthritis [2]...

PURPOSE The objective of this study was to prepare a suitable form of nanofiber for indomethacin using polymers Eudragit RS100 (ERS) and Eudragit S100 (ES) and to evaluate the effect of some variables on the characteristics of resulted electrospunnanofibers. METHODS Electrospinning process was used for preparation of nanofibers. Different solutions of combinations of ERS, ES and indomethacin ...
