The objective of the present investigation was to formulate and characterize the human insulin entrapped Eudragit S100 microspheres containing protease inhibitors and to develop an optimized formulation with desirable features. A w/o/w multiple emulsion solvent evaporation technique was employed to produce microspheres of human insulin using Eudragit S-100 as coating material and polyvinyl alco...

The study was carried out to establish the effectiveness of a mixed film composed of ethylcellulose/Eudragit S100 for colonic delivery of 5-flourouracil (5-FU). Tablets cores containing 5-FU were prepared by direct compression method by coating at different levels (2-9%, m/m) with a non-aqueous solution containing ethylcellulose/Eudragit S100. Coated tablets were studied for the in vitro releas...

The multiparticulate formulation of sodium para aminosalicylate for oral administration was developed by extrusion spheronization technique. Microcrystalline cellulose was used as filler in concentration of 14.4% w/w. Pellets were coated with Eudragit L 30 D-55 using fluidized bed processor. Different weight gains of acrylic polymer were applied onto the pellets and evaluated for in vitro disso...

A multiparticulate system was developed using the coating pan method with nonpareil seed as the core material for the Theophylline. The drug loaded pellets were prepared by powder layering technique, sprinkling the drug on the nonpareil seeds using PVP K-30 in IPA as binder. The drug loaded pellets were coated by using polymers ethyl cellulose, EUDRAGITRS:RL (2:1) and EUDRAGIT® RS:RL (3:1). The...

BACKGROUND AND THE PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Mechanical properties of films prepared from aqueous dispersion and organic solutions of Eudragit RL were assessed and the effects of plasticizer type, concentration and curing were examined. METHODS Films were prepared from aqueous dispersion and solutions of Eudragit RL (isopropy alcohol-water 9:1) containing 0, 10 or 20% (based on polymer weight) of ...

SUMMARY A novel emulsification/solvent evaporation process was developed to formulate prednisoloneloaded Eudragit L and S microparticles as drug delivery vehicles to target different regions of the gastrointestinal tract. Microparticles were characterised in vitro and in vivo. This is the first report of drug absorption form orally administered Eudragit L and S microparticles. INTRODUCTION Dela...

the influence of various polymers on the release rate of lithium carbonate from matrix-type tablets was investigated in an attempt to formulate a sustained release solid dosage form. for this purpose, tablets containing 450 mg of lithium carbonate along with various amounts of carbopol 934p, 971p, 974p, pemulen and eudragit rlpo as retarding agents and inactive ingredients (e.g. pvp, avicel or ...

In the present study, we aimed to prepare rhubarb total anthraquinones oral colon-specific drug delivery granules (RTA-OCDDGN) for delivering rhubarb free anthraquinones to colon. RTA-OCDD-GN was successfully prepared through a double-layer coating process using chitosan as an inner layer and Eudragit S100 as an outer enteric coating layer. The pharmacodynamics and toxicological results showed ...

This study is to prepare the pantoprazole sodium enteric-coated tablet which is compacted by pellets. The enteric-coated pantoprazole sodium pellets were prepared by fluid bed coating technology. The pantoprazole sodium enteric-coated tablets were prepared by direct compression of the enteric-coated pellets and suitable excipients. In vitro dissolution method and scanning electron microscope me...

In this study, an attempt was made to deliver pantoprazole in a sustained manner using delayed release tablets. The tablets were prepared by the wet granulation method using HPMC, cassava starch and polyvinyl pyrrolidine as polymers, Avicel PH 102 (MCC) as filler and potato starch as binder. The prepared tablets were evaluated for hardness, mass variation, friability and drug content uniformity...
