In the past few years, there are number of researchers carrying out their research on the excipients derived from polysaccharides and some of these researches show that natural excipients are comparable and can serve as an alternative to the synthetic excipients. Hence, the objectives of this research are to characterize the naturally sourced chickpea starch powder and to study the pharmaceutic...

The initiation of newer techniques and development of mouth dissolving (MD) products has created new avenues of higher patients' compliance. MD formulations are actually lessen the difficulties associated with solid swallowing with better bioavailability of especially poorly soluble drugs. In the current study mouth dissolving tablet (MDT) formulations of cinitapride (1 mg) were prepared by dir...

The objective of this investigation was to prepare orodispersible tablets (ODTs) of ondansetron HCl using a direct compression method. A combination of glycine and chitosan was used as a disintegrating system and these tablets were compared for mechanical strength and disintegration time with those containing superdisintegrants. The Plackett-Burman screening design was used to screen the indepe...

The aim and objective of orally disintegrating tablets by direct compression method was emerged from desired to provide patient with a conventional mean of taking their medication. Difficulty in swallowing (Dysphagia) is a common problem of all age groups, especially elderly and pediatrics, because of physiological changes associated with these groups of patients. In the present work Ondansetro...

orally disintegrating tablets (odts) are capable of turning quickly into a liquid dosage form in contact with the saliva, thus possessing the advantages of both the solid dosage forms particularly stability and liquid dosage forms specially ease of swallowing and pre-gastric absorption of drug. the aim of this study was to prepare a novel matrix-type buccal fast disintegrating ibuprofen tablet ...

In the present work, orodispersible tablets of pheniramine maleate were designed with a view to enhance patient compliance by effervescent method. In the effervescent method, mixture of sodium bicarbonate and tartaric acid (each of 12% w/w concentration) were used along with super disintegrants, i.e., pregelatinized starch, sodium starch glycolate, croscarmellose sodium and crospovidone. The pr...
