Formulation and evaluation of sustained release matrix tablets of a selective antihypertensive drug

S. Chandra — 2022-05-09

The present work was to formulate and evaluate sustain release matrix tablets of Valsartan, an angiotensin II Receptor type 1 antagonist. Sustain release formulation are those which delivers the drug locally or systemically at a predetermined rate for a fixed period of time. The matrix tablet was prepared by direct compression method using by various concentration of chitosan and sodium alginate with combination of various release retardant polymer. The powder mixtures were subjected to various pre-compression parameters such as angle of repose, bulk density, tapped density and Carr’s index shows satisfactory result and the compressed tablets are evaluated for post-compression parameters such as weight variation, thickness, hardness, friability, drug content, in-vitro dissolution and stability studies. In-vitro dissolution studies were carried out for 24 hours using 0.1 N HCL for first 2 hours and pH 6.8 phosphate buffer for 24 hours and the result showed that formulations F₄ and F₇ showed good dissolution profile to control the drug release respectively. Formulation containing higher concentration of chitosan and sodium alginate along with polymers sustained the drug release for the period of 24 hours. The compatibility of the drug, polymers and other excipients were determined by FT-IR Spectroscopy. Results showed that the drug was compatible with polymers and other excipients. The release data was fitted to various mathematical models such as Zero-order, First-order, Higuchi equation and Korsmeyer- Peppas model to evaluate the kinetics and the drug release. The drug release followed first order and the mechanism was found to be non-Fickian. The stability studies were carried out for 3 months and result indicates that the selected formulations (F₄ and F₇) were stable.

Sayyed Wamique Aquil — 2022-06-07

The purpose of this research was to develop and characterize Bioadhesive buccal tablets of Labetalol using sodium alginate, xanthan gum and Ethylcellulose. The tablets were evaluated for weight variation, thickness, hardness, friability, surface pH, mucoadhesive strength, swelling index, in vitro drug release. The swelling index, friability and in vitro drug release. F3 formulation was considered optimum based on good Bioadhesive strength and maximum similarity factor. The drug release from optimum batch followed zero order kinetics with non-Fickian diffusion. Drug and excipients compatibility study showed no interaction between drug and excipients. Stability study of optimized formulation showed that tablets were stable at accelerated environment condition. Thus, buccal adhesive tablet of Labetalol could be an alternative route to bypass hepatic first pass metabolism and to improve bioavailability of Labetalol.

Shaik Ubaid Khaleel — 2022-06-07

The aim of the present work is to Formulate and Evaluate controlled release of Acyclovir matrix tablets used for treatment of viral infections. Development of SR Acyclovir is proposed considering the adverse event profile and high fluctuation index of Acyclovir observed with SR dosage forms. In the present work, attempts were made to formulate and evaluate controlled release of matrix tablets of Acyclovir. Acyclovir was subjected to preformulation studies, based on the results obtained Acyclovir controlled release tablets were successfully formulated. Formulations prepared by direct compression technique using sodium alginate and xanthan gum as control release polymers. Set of trials were formulated for which Acyclovir evaluated parameters (bulk density, tapped density, compressibility index, hausner’s ratio, weight, thickness, hardness) were found to lie within the specifications Dissolution study was performed in USP type II apparatus at 100 RPM in 0.1 HCL for 2 hours followed by pH 1.2 and pH 6. 8 phosphate buffer. From the results of the invitro study it appears that the release of the Acyclovir was significantly influenced by the characteristics of the polymer used.

Evaluation of chronic kidney diseases and realted comorbidities

Geetha rani Valaparla — 2022-06-07

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is commonly comorbid with hypertension, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, the extent of comorbidity in CKD across a range of concordant (shared pathophysiology and/or treatment) conditions and discordant (unrelated pathophysiology and/or different or contradictory treatment) conditions is not well documented. Kidney diseases are emerging non-communicable ailments in Saudi Arabia and rest of the world. Among top ten diseases in 2017 in Saudi Arabia, chronic kidney disease was the 4^th common cause of most of the deaths in the kingdom. Hence, the study aimed at determining the major concomitant chronic disorders and their association with kidney diseases in Hail region.
