The aim of the present investigation was to prepare & evaluate bilayer floating tablet of Baclofen. In which one layer was made up of immediate release layer to provide loading dose, while another layer was made up of floating layer of BCF to provide maintenance dose. The focus of present work was to prepare and evaluate bilayer floating tablet of Baclofen to increase residence time in stomach ...

The importance of the present investigation was to formulate a bilayer-floating tablet (BFT) for captopril using direct compression technology. The release layer contained captopril and various polymers such as HPMC-K15M, PVP-K30 and Carbopol 934p, alone or in combination with the drug. HPMC, K-grade and effervescent mixture of citric acid and sodium bicarbonate formed the floating layer. The f...

The objective of this present investigation was to develop and formulate floating sustained release matrix tablets of s (-) atenolol, by using different polymer combinations and filler, to optimize by using surface response methodology for different drug release variables and to evaluate the drug release pattern of the optimized product. Floating sustained release matrix tablets of various comb...

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...

Novel drug delivery system overcomes the physiological problems of gastric retention by decreasing fluctuations in blood drug concentration with consequent reduction in undesirable toxicity and poor efficiency. Incorporation of drug in controlled release gastroretentive dosage forms which can remain in the gastric region for several hours would significantly prolong the gastric residence time o...

OBJECTIVE DA-9601, an extract of Artemisia asiatica containing eupatilin and jaceosidin as active compounds, has been prescribed to treat gastritis in Asia. In recent times, sustained-release, floating gastroretentive (GR) tablets of DA-9601 are available on the market. In the present study, the physical properties and in vitro drug release profile, in vivo gastric residence time, and gastropro...

Floating dosage forms of acetylsalicylic acid, used for its antithrombotic effect, were developed to prolong gastric residence time and increase bioavailability. In the two-layer tablet formulation, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) of high viscosity and an effervescent mixture of citric acid and sodium bicarbonate formed the floating layer. The release layer contained the drug, direct table...

Objective: The present study investigates the use of indomethacin–solubilizers solid dispersions for the development of controlled-release bilayer floating tablet formulations. Materials and Methods: The physical state of the dispersed indomethacin in the solubilizers mixture was characterized by Scanning electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, powder X-ray diffraction, and IR s...
