The main objective of the present study was to formulate gastroretentive effervescent sustained release drug delivery systems of risperidone floating tablets with the help of Methocel® K15, Ethocel® standard 7FP premium, Eudragit ® RS100 sustained release polymers to improve its safety profile, bioavailability and patient compliance. Risperidone floating tablets were formulated by wet granulati...

Ocular Conjunctivitis is one of the main causes of red eye syndrome. The present work focuses on the treatment of ocular conjunctivitis by using combined mechanisms: 1.Formulation of ocular inserts to provide prolonged and sustained release system of the drug. 2.Use of therapeutic agent, as ciprofloxacin hydrochloride in combination with the polymers used. The selected polymers were methylcellu...

The present investigation was aimed to formulate and evaluate the gastro-retentive floating microballoons of glipizide using hydrophilic polymers hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) and Eudragit RS100 (RS 100) by emulsion solvent evaporation technique. The floating microballoons were evaluated using micromeritic properties, buoyancy, in vitro drug release, scanning electron microscopy and stab...

The present study has been performed to microencapsulate the antidiabetic drug of Vildagliptin to get sustained release of drug. The attempt of this study was to formulate and evaluate the Vildagliptin loaded microspheres by emulsion solvent evaporation technique using different polymers like Eudragit RL100, Eudragit RS100, Ethyl cellulose, and Methocel K100M. In vitro dissolution studies were ...

In the present study, gastro retentive microparticulate systems of ranitidine HCl were prepared by spray drying. Biocompatible polymers like Eudragit RS100, Eudragit RL100 were used in the formulation. Factorial design (2) was employed by taking drug to polymer ratio and polymer to polymer ratio as factors. FTIR and DSC studies showed that Ranitidine HCl and excipients are compatible. Scanning ...

Single pH-dependent drug delivery systems have been widely used for colon-targeted delivery, but their efficiency is often hampered by the variation in gut pH. To overcome the limitation of single pH-dependent delivery systems, in this study, we developed and evaluated the therapeutic potential of budesonide-loaded dual pH/time-dependent nanoparticles (NPs) for the treatment of colitis. Eudragi...

INTRODUCTION The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate microencapsulated controlled release preparation of theophylline using Eudragit RS 100 as the retardant material with high entrapment efficiency. METHODS Microspheres were prepared by the emulsion-solvent evaporation method. A mixed solvent system consisting of methanol and acetone and light liquid paraffin as oily phase were chos...

Purpose: To formulate and evaluate floating microparticulate oral diltiazem delivery system for possible delivery to the heart. Method: Floating microspheres were prepared using cellulose acetate and Eudragit RS100 polymers by emulsion solvent evaporation technique. The dried floating microspheres were evaluated for micromeritic properties (flow properties, density, particle size determination)...
