The aim of the present study was to prepare and evaluate an osmotically controlled mucoadhesive cup-core (OCMC) containing aceclofenac. A special technique was used while preparing an OCMC. Stability of OCMC was determined in natural human saliva, and it was found that both pH and device are stable in human saliva. OCMC was evaluated by weight uniformity, thickness, hardness, friability, swelli...

in recent years, great efforts have been devoted to the design of drug delivery systems. many polymeric excipients have been studied in order to make drug release fit the desired profiles. the aim of this work was to design a theophylline oral suspension, as sustained release pharmaceutical preparation in order to decrease the plasma level fluctuations and adverse effects of theophylline. micro...

In the present study, a nanoporous metal organic framework (MOF) based on iron metal and amino terephthalate ligand MIL-101-NH2-Fe has been used as a carrier for loading and in vitro release of 5-flurouracil (5-FU) anticancer drug. The 5-FU drug loaded MOF was 13 wt % by using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The 5-FU release was monitored under physiological condition at 37°C, pH 7.4 in simul...

gel dosage forms are successfully used as drug delivery systems considering their ability to control drug release and to protect medicaments from a hostile environment. the aim of this work was to investigate the properties of carbopol 934p polymeric system in water-misible cosolvents such as glycerin and alcohol. benzocaine is a local anesthetic and the mucosal gel formulation is applied in th...

the purpose of the research was to formulate microspheres of acyclovir (acv) using mucoadhesive polymers, sodium alginate and chitosan. calcium chloride was used as the ionotropic gelling agent. sodium alginate was crosslinked by calcium chloride leading to a slower release of the drug. chitosan which is a cationic polymer interacted with sodium alginate, an anionic polymer, to form an interpol...

In modern clinical practice, combination fixed - dose tablets have become a baseline foreffective therapy in many clinical conditions. The Hydrochlorothiazide (Hctz) (12.5mg) /Lisinopril (Lis) (10 mg) tablet is a combination drug for treatment of hypertension. In thisstudy, the tablets were prepared by wet granulation method and characterized in terms of weightvariation, hardness, friability, d...
