We aimed to report a simple estimation method to enable quantification of pediatric antibiotic exposure in large aggregated datasets. Secondly, we aimed to quantify and benchmark Hungarian pediatric antibiotic use. First we intended to examine whether a correlation existed between dosage form data and the patient's age. Therefore, issued prescriptions were analyzed in pharmacies. As a correlati...

Three new methods using titrimetric and spectrophotometry are described for the determination of Propranolol Hydrochloride (PPH) and Atenolol (AN) with potassium bromate as the oxidimetric reagent and acid dyes, Methyl orange and Indigo carmine. In direct titrimetric (method A), the drug is titrated directly with bromate in acid medium and in the presence of excess of bromide using methyl orang...

The objective of this work was to compare several profiles of dissolution data for metoprolol controlled release tablet formulations in order to identify possible changes in dissolution profiles of whole and scored tablets. Adequate design of score lines (on one or both sides) as well as the technology of preparation of tablet mixtures ensure forming a score line of adequate thickness, shape, s...

A simple spectrophotometric method for determination of glucosamine release from sustained release (SR) hydrophilic matrix tablet based on reaction with ninhydrin is developed, optimized and validated. The purple color (Ruhemann purple) resulted from the reaction was stabilized and measured at 570 nm. The method optimization was essential as many procedural parameters influenced the accuracy of...

Tablet is the most popular among all dosage forms existing today because of its convenience of self administration, compactness and easy manufacturing; however in many cases immediate onset of action is required than conventional therapy. To overcome these drawbacks, immediate release pharmaceutical dosage form has emerged as alternative oral dosage forms. There are novel types of dosage forms ...

Thymol, an important and advantageous component of many essential oils, has been applied as an antimicrobial agent in animals. To increase the duration of action of this compound in ruminants, it was decided here to prepare a controlled release carrier for thymol. Hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) and ethyl cellulose (EC) were used as the matrix polymer here. Mixtures of thymol with eight ...

in the present study, a simple and sensitive extractive spectrophotometric method is described for determination of buspirone. the method is based on the reaction of buspirone and bromocresol green. the ion-pair complex was quantitatively extracted into chloroform at ph 2.3 followed by spectrophotometric determination at 415 nm. the complex was stable up to 2 days and obeyed beer's law over the...

"Green analytical chemistry" (GAC) succeeded to become an eco-friendly environmental crucial area in the field of analytical chemistry targeting at the chemical processes' and products' optimization regarding to material consumption, generation of waste and intrinsic safety, toxicity and environmental burdens. For an expressive comparison, an electro-analytical in-line potentiometric selective ...

Tablets are the most preferred and widely used dosage form because of their ease of administration, lower cost of manufacture, and elegance. So in this article, we describe the general characteristics, introduction,classification and formulation consideration of compression coating tablet. The compressioncoating granulation or blend can be preformulated to provide desired functionalities to the...
