The aim of the present study was to develop a single unit, site-specific matrix tablets of aceclofenac allowing targeted drug release in the colon with a microbially degradable polymeric carrier, chondroitin suphate (CS) and to coat the optimized batches with a pH dependent polymeric. The tablets were prepared by wet granulation method using starch mucilage as a binding agent and HPMC K-100 ...

The aim of present investigation deals with the development of time-dependent and pH sensitive press-coated tablets for colon specific drug delivery of naproxen. The core tablets were prepared by wet granulation method then press coated with hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) or Eudragit RSPO : RLPO mixture and further coated with Eudragit S-100 by dip immerse method. The in vitro drug release study...

The objective of the present investigation was to reduce the bitterness of artemether (ARM). Microparticles were prepared by the coacervation method using Eudragit E 100 (EE) as polymer and sodium hydroxide solution as nonsolvent for the polymer. A 32 full factorial design was used for optimization wherein the amount of drug (A) and polymer (B) were selected as independent variables and the bit...

SUMMARY A novel emulsification/solvent evaporation process was developed to formulate prednisoloneloaded Eudragit L and S microparticles as drug delivery vehicles to target different regions of the gastrointestinal tract. Microparticles were characterised in vitro and in vivo. This is the first report of drug absorption form orally administered Eudragit L and S microparticles. INTRODUCTION Dela...

Sorafenib is slightly absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract due to its poor solubility in water. To improve its absorption, a novel nanoparticulate formulation-nanomatrix was used in the study. The nanomatrix was a system prepared from a porous material Sylysia(®) 350 and a pH sensitive polymer Eudragit(®). The formulations were optimized by orthogonal design (L(9)(3(4))) and their bioavailabi...

OBJECTIVE Development of liposomal mucoadhesive drug delivery system, which is able to improve the bioavailability of poorly absorbed oral drugs by prolonging their gastric and intestinal residence time, through facilitating the intimate contact of the delivery system with the absorption membrane. MATERIALS AND METHODS Liposomes containing model drug atenolol were prepared by the modified eth...

The aim of this study was to develop the polymer coated diclofenac tablet containing superdisintegrant for colonic drug delivery and compare the in vivo performance of two polymers for site specificity. Eudragit FS 3D and Eudragit S100 were used as pH sensitive polymers. Tablets were prepared to give fast release at specific site with the help of sodium starch glycolate as superdisintegrant. Ta...

the main objective of the present study was to formulate gastroretentive effervescent sustained release drug delivery systems of risperidone floating tablets with the help of methocel® k15, ethocel® standard 7fp premium, eudragit ® rs100 sustained release polymers to improve its safety profile, bioavailability and patient compliance. risperidone floating tablets were formulated by wet granulati...
