The usage of soy is increasing year by year. It increases the problem of financial crisis due to the limited sources of soybeans. Therefore, production of oral tablets containing the nutritious leftover of soymilk production, called okara, as the main ingredient was investigated. The okara tablets were produced using the direct compression method. The percentage of okara, guar gum, microcrystal...

The objective of the study was to develop HPMC matrix tablets for oral controlled/ sustained release of water soluble Diclofenac Potassium. Sustained release matrix tablets containing 100 mg of Diclofenac Potassium were developed using different drug polymer ratio of HPMC. Tablets were prepared by direct compression. Compressed tablets were evaluated for uniformity of weight, content of active ...

Cimetidine is an odourless white to off-white powder, which is sparingly soluble in water. Each Magicul tablet contains 200 mg, 400 mg or 800 mg of cimetidine. The tablets also contain maize starch, povidone, microcrystalline cellulose, sodium starch glycollate (Type A), magnesium stearate, Opadry Green OY8830 (ARTG no. 1538) for 200 mg and 800 mg tablets, and Opadry White Y-1-7000 E171 (ARTG n...

Polysaccharide mucilage derived from the seeds of Ocimum basilicum L. (family Lamiaceae) was investigated for use in matrix formulations containing propranolol hydrochloride. Basil mucilage was extracted and several tablets were formulated. The effect of mucilage on drug release rate was evaluated in comparison with tablets containing two kinds of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC K4M and HPM...

In present study, the fast dissolving tablets of Amoxicillin Trihydrate were prepared by direct compression technique using microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) as direct compressible diluents. Sodium starch glycolate (SSG) and croscarmillose sodium (CCS) used as synthetic superdisintegrants. The swelling indices of the superdisintegrants were also compared. Among both the superdisintegrants, crosc...

Strict measure on the need to control microbial contamination in the formulation of solid dosage forms such as tablets and capsules are not usually in place as is done in other pharmaceutical preparations. The presence of microorganisms in some common excipients such as starch and lactose powders, and distilled water used in tablet formulation was investigated in this study. Organisms isolated ...

The purpose of the present research was to study the effects of Ceolus KG-802 on the dissolution behavior of fenofibrate liquisolid tablets. The fenofibrate liquisolid tablets were formulated using the mathematical model described by Spireas et al. In the present research, Ceolus KG-802, a different form of microcrystalline cellulose (PH 102 grade), was used as a carrier material. The developed...

objective(s): the aim of present research was to develop matrix-mini-tablets of lornoxicam filled in capsule for targeting early morning peak symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. materials and methods:matrix-mini-tablets of lornoxicam were prepared by direct compression method using microsomal enzyme dependent and ph-sensitive polymers which were further filled into an empty hpmc capsule. to asses...
