Coated hard capsules are becoming increasingly important for a number of reasons such as administration of new active ingredients, oral vaccination, colon drug delivery or their use in preclinical and clinical trials. The independency of coating composition on capsules filling is the major advantage of this dosage form. In our study, two types of hard capsules (gelatin and hypromellose) were co...

The objective of the present work was to develop a suitable transdermal drug delivery system for nitrendipine. Polymeric films of nitrendipine were prepared by the film casting technique (glass ring) on mercury substrate. They were evaluated for physicochemical parameters, in vitro release and ex vivo permeation (heat separated human epidermis). Release of the drug from the films followed anoma...

Pefloxacin mesylate is a flouroquinolone antibacterial drug effective in the treatment of bacterial conjunctivitis. The objective of the present work was to develop ocular inserts of pefloxacin mesylate and evaluate their potential for sustained ocular delivery. Reservoir-type ocular inserts were prepared by the film casting technique in teflon coated Petri dishes and characterized in vitro by ...

Cannabidiol (CBD) and cannabigerol (CBG) are two active pharmaceutical ingredients, derived from cannabis plant. In the present study, CBD CBG were formulated with polyvinyl(pyrrolidone) (PVP) Eudragit L-100, using electrohydrodynamic atomization (electrospinning). The produced fibers smooth uniform in shape, average fiber diameters range of 700–900 nm for PVP 1–5 μm L-100 fibers. encapsulation...

BACKGROUND AND THE PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Sertraline hydrochloride is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor principally used in the treatment of major depressive disorder. To maintain the therapeutic plasma drug concentration of the drug for prolonged period, the transdermal drug delivery has been chosen as an alternative route of drug delivery. The pharmacokinetic properties of sertraline hyd...

The aim of the present study was to develop Exemestane loaded polymeric nanoparticles for improved oral bioavailability of Exemestane. Exemestane loaded nanoparticles were prepared by solvent displacement method with Eudragit RL 100 and Eudragit L 100 as polymers and Pluronic® F-68 as surfactant. The influence of various formulation factors (drug: polymer ratio and concentration of surfactant) ...

E-mail: [email protected] The objectives of the present investigation were: (1) to elucidate the effect of formulation variables e.g., amount of Eudragit RS 100, concentration of Tween 80 and agitation speed on in-vitro release profiles of indomethacin from multiparticulates system, formulated with the combination of ethyl cellulose and Eudragit RS 100 by using a novel quasi emulsion solve...

Solid dispersions traditionally have been used as effective methods to improve the dissolution properties and bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs. Furosemide a loop diuretic belonging to Biopharmaceutical Classification System (BCS) Class IV, has very poor water solubility. The aim of the present study was to improve the solubility and dissolution rate of a poorly water-soluble drug, ...
