abstract                                                                               the new drug delivery systems have been developed, which can remain in the stomach for prolonged period of time. the effervescent floating tablet is one of these systems. iron deficiency anaemia is a common disease in the world. ferrous sulphate is the most common ferrous preparation used to treat and prevent...

The study was aimed to design and evaluate a new effervescent mucoadhesive vaginal drug delivery system for ciclopirox olamine (CPO), a broad-spectrum antifungal, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory agent for effective treatment in vaginal candidiosis. Various polymers like Polyox 303, Carbopol 974P, HPMC K4M, Sodium CMC, HPC, Sodium Alginate, Xanthan Gum, Polycarbophil and Chitosan were used ...

OBJECTIVES Levocetirizine HCl, a second-generation piperazine derivative and H1-selective antihistaminic agent, possesses few side effects. The first objective of the study was to compare and evaluate the taste-masking effect of different ratios of 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin and mannitol on levocetirizine HCl using an inclusion complex and solid dispersion, respectively. The second objectiv...

In present study, mucoadhesive vaginal tablet of sertaconazole was designed using a combination of mucoadhesive polymers like Carbopol 934P, chitosan, carboxymethylcellulose sodium, sodium alginate, methyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and hydroxypropyl cellulose. Effervescent was incorporated into formulations to enhance swellabilty of mucoadhesive tablet. For various drug-free form...

The purpose of this study was formulation and in vitro evaluation of floating-bioadhesive tablets to lengthen the stay of glipizide in its absorption area. Effervescent tablets were made using chitosan (CH), hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), carbopolP934 (CP), polymethacrylic acid (PMA), citric acid, and sodium bicarbonate. Tablets with 5% effervescent base had longer lag time than 10%. The...

2 The work investigates the formulation development, evaluation and optimization of ibuprofen effervescent tablet using 3 factorial designs. The effect of variables viz. xanthan gum and sodium bicarbonate on drug release and hardness of ibuprofen effervescent tablets were analyzed and optimized. The optimized formulation showed the ibuprofen release in sustained manner over a period of 6h. The ...

ABSTRACT: Nowadays, milk tablets are considered favorable due to several advantages, including good taste and chewing properties, ease of transport, increased bioavailability, ease of storage, stability of active ingredients and improved functional properties.This study seeks to investigate the characteristics of fermented milk tablets in relation to its use as a beverage producing tablet. The ...

Doxorubicin-loaded nanoparticles (NPs) were incorporated into inhalable effervescent and non-effervescent carrier particles using a spray-freeze drying technique. The prepared inhalable powders were tested in a tumor bearing Balb/c mouse model. Control mice were treated with blank inhalable NPs, inhalable lactose powder containing free doxorubicin, and intravenous injections of a suspension of ...

OBJECTIVE The presence of Candida albicans on the surfaces of denture-base acrylic resins is strongly related to the development of oral stomatitis. This study evaluated the antifungal action of different agents over microwave-cured acrylic resin without polishing specimens previously contaminated with Candida albicans. MATERIAL AND METHODS Sixty specimens were immersed in BHI broth previousl...

I suggest the existence of an extended zone above the surface of asymptotic giant branch (AGB), as well as similar stars experiencing high mass loss rates. In addition to the escaping wind, in this zone there are parcels of gas that do not reach the escape velocity. These parcels of dense gas rise slowly and then fall back. The wind and bound gas exist simultaneously to distances of ∼ 100 AU. I...
