Orally Dispersible Tablet of Mesalazine: Formulation and Evaluation
Abstract: Oral disintegrating tablets (ODTs) become increasingly more and more popular, particularly among elderly and paediatric patients who have difficulties with swallowing. The 5-aminosalicylic acid compound oral mesalazine, frequently referred to as mesalamine, is used to treat mild to severe ulcerative colitis and has a high percentage of success in causing and establishing response. Mesalazine has a topical therapeutic action at the location of the suffering colonic mucosa. The medication’s disadvantage …

Development and Characterization of a Solid Dispersion of an Anti-Diabetic Drug Using Pectin as a Natural Polymer
Abstract: Aim: The current study sought to improve the solubility and oral bioavailability of gliclazide by creating solid dispersions and oral dispersible tablets (ODTs) with enhanced physicochemical characteristics and maintained antidiabetic action. Methods: Preformulation studies were conducted to evaluate the physicochemical properties of gliclazide, including physical appearance, melting point, solubility, and partition coefficient. Solid dispersions were prepared using hydrophilic carriers-pectin and PVP K30, and subsequently characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy …

Comparative Study on Oro Dispersible Tablets of Candesartan Cilexetil Formulated with Natural and Synthetic Disintegrants
Abstract: Candesartan cilexetil, a BCS class II drug with low aqueous solubility and poor bioavailability (15%), poses challenges for oral delivery. To address this limitation, the present study focuses on polymer-based inclusion complexation and composite formulation strategies to enhance solubility and dissolution behavior. The drug was incorporated into β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), a cyclic oligosaccharide polymer, by the kneading method in different drug-to-carrier ratios. Among these, the 1:1 molar ratio complex exhibited the …
