DESIGN AND EVALUATION OF SANDWICH TABLET FOR SUSTAINED RELEASE DRUG DELIVERY OF DICLOFENAC SODIUM.
Abstract: The objective of this experiment was to create bilayer sandwich pills using the model medication diclofenac. A lengthy duration of action is provided by the combination of an immediate and sustained release layer, which lengthens the effect in the body. Diclofenac sodium has excellent antipyretic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects. A super disintegrating carboxyl agent, such as methyl cellulose, is used for the quick release layer of a bilayer sandwich tablet …

Formulation and Evaluation of Buccal Mucoadhesive Bilayered Tablets of Enalapril Maleate
Abstract: The buccal mucoadhesive bilayered tablets of Enalapril Maleate were fabricated with objective of avoiding first pass metabolism and prolonging the duration of action. The tablets were prepared by wet granulation wherein, one layer comprised of drug and bio adhesive polymer, whereas second layer consisted of drug free backing layer of ethyl cellulose. Bioadhesive polymers like Carbopol 934P and one either of three HPMC K4M/ HPMC K15M/ HPMC K100M were employed …

Design and Evaluation Cefaclor Microspheres for Bioavailability Enhancement
Abstract: This study attempted to formulate microspheres for oral administration of Cefaclor by using different polymers like Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) K4M, (HPMC) K15M and Ethylcellulose (EC) which increases the gastric residence time and thereby the bioavailability. Solvent evaporation method was found to be the best due to its ease of fabrication without compromising the activity of the drug. Cefaclor is a second-generation cephalosporin antibiotic used to treat certain ear, lung, skin, …

Formulation and Evaluation of Gastroretentive Bilayered Floating Tablets of Famotidine: Effect of Formulation Variables and in vitro in vivo Evaluation
Abstract: The present investigation concerns the development of bilayered floating tablets of famotidine for prolongation of gastric residence time. An attempt was made to prepare bilayered floating tablets of famotidine by direct compression method. Two layered formulations were designed with an immediate release layer (IR) comprising of the drug, the super disintegrant Croscarmellose sodium along with the other diluents like microcrystalline cellulose and dicalcium phosphate. Three batches of immediate release layer …

Formulation Development and Evaluation of Floating Tablets of Venlafaxine Hydrochloride
Abstract: The aim of the present study was to formulate and evaluate gastroretentive floating tablets of an antidepressant drug, Venlafaxine HCl. The matrix tablets of Venlafaxine hydrochloride were prepared by employing low viscosity grade hydrophilic polymer HPMC E15LV in combination with any one of the high viscosity grades of HPMC (K4M, K15M, and K100M) as swelling polymers. Sodium bicarbonate was employed as gas generating agent. The tablets were formulated using direct …

Formulation and Development of Ibuprofen Floating Tablet
Abstract: The investigation focused on optimizing a gastric floating drug delivery system (GFDDS) for Ibuprofen tablets. It employed polymers like HPMC K4M and Carbopol 940 to improve Ibuprofen's bioavailability and therapeutic effectiveness. GFDDS, with lower bulk density than gastric fluids, remains buoyant in the stomach, extending gastric residence time. Compatibility assessments, via DSC analysis, indicated harmony between the polymers used, with no observed interaction between the polymer and the drug. The …

A Novel Liquid Crystal Drug Delivery for Transdermal Application
Abstract: The present study was aimed at the formulation of liquid crystals of acyclovir that will be incorporated into a transdermal patch. Liquid crystals serve as drug carrier and have a good penetration-enhancer property, due to the extensive similarity of these colloidal systems with the intercellular lipids in the stratum corneum. The liquid crystals were prepared using tween 80 as emulsifier, cetosteryl alcohol as emulsion stabilizer and double-distilled water. Liquid crystals …
