the objective of this work was to develop and evaluate the levofloxacin hemihydrate floating formulations (f1-f9). selection of optimized batch was done by model dependent approach and novel mathematical approach. f1-f9 batches were prepared by direct compression method using gelucire 43/01 (hydrophobic) and hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (hydrophilic) polymer in different ratios. the floating ta...

in the current study, floating dosage form containing acyclovir was developed to increase its oral bioavailability. effervescent floating tablets containing 200 mg acyclovir were prepared by direct compression method with three different rate controlling polymers including hydroxypropyl methylcellulose k4m, carbapol 934, and polyvinylpyrrolidone. optimized formulation showed good floating prope...

an oral sustained-release floating tablet formulation of metformin hcl was designed and developed. effervescence and swelling properties were attributed on the developed tablets by sodium bicarbonate and hpmc-peo polymer combination, respectively. tablet composition was optimized by response surface methodology (rsm). seventeen (17) trial formulations were analyzed according to box-behnken desi...

Objective: The objective of the present study was to formulate a controlled release floating tablet of Olmesartan Medoxomil. Methods: Floating tablets of Olmesartan Medoxomil were prepared by direct compression method using both natural (sodium alginate and carrageenan) and semi synthetic polymers (HPMC K4M, HPMC K100LV and HPMC E50LV).Sodium bicarbonate and calcium carbonate were used as gas g...

for prolonging the time that drug remains in stomach, new methods used as floating drug delivery systems, that available in various forms such as floating tablets. these systems enhance drug absorption and decrease plasma concentration fluctuations. iron deficiency and its inadequate absorption in diet are of community health problems. for prolonging the time that drug remains in stomach, new m...

A biphasic gastroretentive drug delivery system of fenoverine was developed to maintain constant plasma concentration. The delivery system consisted of a loading-dose tablet and a floating multiple matrix tablet prepared by the direct compression process. The drug release from biphasic GRDDS in 0.1 mol L(-1) HCl and SGF (enzyme free) was sustained over 12 h with buoyant properties. Stability st...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of formulation variables on the release properties, floating lag time, and hardness, when developing floating tablets of Ranitidine hydrochloride, by the statistical optimization technique. The formulations were prepared based on 3(2) factorial design, with polymer ratio (HPMC 100 KM: Xanthan gum) and the amount of aerosil, as two independe...
