Fabrication and Characterization of Sustained Release Beads of Carbamazepine by Extrusion – Spheronization Containing Carbopol®974
Abstract: The erratic absorption of Carbamazepine, BCS Class II drug, due to low water solubility and anticholinergic properties can be minimized by developing sustained release beads. Sustained release beads of Carbamazepine were prepared using axial single screw extruder and a chequered plate spheronizer. Beads offer therapeutic advantages such as easy dispersion in the gastro-intestinal tract, lower risk of dose dumping, reduce peak plasma fluctuations and drug release is independent of gastric …

The Effects of HIV/AIDS Worldwide
Abstract: The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), which targets immune system conductors (CD4 cells), has infected millions throughout the world. HIV lowers the body's defences by infecting certain bodily fluids (blood, sperm, vaginal fluids, and breast milk) through unprotected sex, contaminated needles, or mother-to-child transmission. Early flu-like symptoms may go unrecognised, but if not treated, HIV advances to AIDS, which is characterised by severe immune system impairment. However, advances in antiretroviral therapy …
