Review on Sustained Released Matrix Tablet
Abstract: Pharmaceuticals often use sustained release dose forms to prolong the therapeutic agent’s presence in the bloodstream and maintain a consistent plasma profile. The matrix governs the drug’s release rate. Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, a release retardant, is a key excipient in formulations due to its ability to promote sustained release. Techniques that include wet granulation, direct compression, or the dispersion of solid particles within a porous matrix, integrating polymers, like polymethyl …

Application of Natural and Synthetic Polymer-Based Disintegrants in the Design of Fast Dissolving Cefuroxime Axetil Tablet Composites
Abstract: The current paper examines how natural and synthetic polymer-based disintegrants can be used to design fast-soluble types of tablet composites. A model drug was chosen and tablets were prepared by the direct compression method using different polymeric excipients, such as guar gum, locust bean gum, sodium starch glycolate (SSG) and cross povidone. Eight formulations were prepared and tested on the basis of critical material and performance characteristics including thickness, hardness, …
