Extended-release matrix tablets of diltiazem hydrochloride (DTZ) were prepared using waxy materials alone or in combination with Kollidon SR. Matrix waxy materials were carnauba wax (CW), bees wax (BW), cetyl alcohol (CA) and glyceryl monostearate (GMS). Dissolution studies were carried out by using a six stations USP XXII type 1 apparatus. The in vitro drug release study was done in 1000 ml ph...

promethazine hydrochloride, a 5-ht3 antagonist is a powerful antiemetic drug with an oral bioavailability of 25% due to extensive hepatic first pass metabolism and is extremely bitter in taste. to overcome the above draw backs, the present study was carried out to formulate and evaluate fast dissolving taste masked wafers of promethazine hydrochloride for sublingual administration. taste maskin...

in order to enhance in vitro dissolution and content uniformity of poorly soluble drug glimepiride by preparing solid dispersions using modified solvent fusion method, solid dispersions of drug were prepared by modified fusion solvent method using peg 6000 and pvp k25 (as carrier). eight batches (f1-f8) were prepared by factorial design (23) by taking three factors i.e. the concentration of: dr...

preparation of chitosan (cs) microspheres as a novel drug delivery vehicle for intranasal immunization using high, medium and low cs molecular weight (mw) was investigated in this study. diphtheria toxoid (dt) was used as a model antigen. the emulsion-solidification method was adopted for microencapsulation of dt.  in the first step, following the purification of semi-crude dt by the ion-exchan...

The aim of this study is to formulate a novel ophthalmic nanosuspension (ONS), an alternative carrier system to traditional colloidal carriers for controlled release (CR) of acyclovir (ACV). In the present study, ONS is employed to avoid some of major disadvantages of colloidal carriers systems such as instability in cul de sac and short half life by increasing efficiency of drug encapsulation ...
