Development of microparticles and microparticulated tablets containing piperine

Abstract Piper nigrum (black pepper) is used in Indian traditional medicine and its main alkaloid, Piperine (PIP), presents antioxidant, antitumor and neuroprotective pharmacological properties. This substance is insoluble in aqueous media and can irritate the gastrointestinal tract. Aiming to avoid thes...

Stability of sulfadiazine sugar-free oral suspensions for the treatment of congenital toxoplasmosis

Abstract This study aimed to develop and evaluate the stability of sulfadiazine sugar-free extemporaneous oral suspensions, focusing on treating congenital toxoplasmosis. The excipients were carefully chosen to obtain safe products for the pediatric population. Sulfadiazine suspensions (100 mg/ mL) were ...

Optimization of HPLC method using central composite design for estimation of Torsemide and Eplerenone in tablet dosage form

Abstract A simple, precise, accurate and robust high performance liquid chromatographic method has been developed for simultaneous estimation of Torsemide and Eplerenone in tablet dosage form. Design of experiment was applied for multivariate optimization of the experimental conditions of RP-HPLC method....

Quality control and drug-drug interactions between commercially available Metoprolol and Glimepiride tablets

Abstract Quality is paramount and needs to be maintained throughout the shelf life of pharmaceuticals. The current study aimed to evaluate the quality, potency, and drug-drug interaction in an in vivo animal model by using two drugs, namely, metoprolol and glimepiride. Tablets were selected for their phy...

Desenvolvimento de comprimidos de liberação prolongada de nimesulida contendo ferrita para avaliação do trânsito gastrintestinal por meio de técnica biomagnética

As Formas Farmacêuticas de Liberação Prolongada (FFLP) têm sido uma alternativa eficaz na terapia, pois proporcionam maior adesão do paciente ao tratamento em função da redução da frequência de dosagem ao longo do dia, sendo sua principal característica, a modulação da liberação/dissoluçÃ...

Pharmacokinetics and safety of repirinast tablets in healthy Chinese subjects

ABSTRACT Repirinast is a new, synthetic, disodium cromoglycate-like antiallergic agent for oral administration in humans. This study evaluated the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of repirinast tablets in healthy Chinese volunteers. This was a phase I, open-label, randomized, single- and multipl...

A suppository-base-matrix tablet for time-dependent colon-specific delivery system

Braz. j. pharm. sci; 50 (3), 2014
Our research has focused on the main design features and release performances of time-dependent colon-specific (TDCS) delivery tablets, which relies on the relative constancy that is observed in the small intestinal transit time of dosage forms. But inflammatory bowel disease(IBD)can affect...

Simple and rapid spectrophotometric assay of albendazole in pharmaceuticals using iodine and picric acid as CT complexing agents

Braz. j. pharm. sci; 50 (4), 2014
Two simple, rapid and inexpensive spectrophotometric methods are described for the determination of albendazole (ALB) in bulk drug and in tablets. The methods are based on charge-transfer (CT) complexation reaction involving ALB as n-donor and iodine as σ-acceptor (method A) in dichloromethane or pi...

Formulation design and evaluation of Cefuroxime axetil 125 mg immediate release tablets using different concentration of sodium lauryl sulphate as solubility enhancer

Braz. j. pharm. sci; 50 (4), 2014
Cefuroxime axetil immediate release tablets were formulated by direct compression method with different percentages of sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) such as 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and also without SLS. Resulting batches of tablets were evaluated by both pharmacopeial and non-pharmacopeial methods to ascertain the ...

Comparison of dissolution profile of extended-release oral dosage forms - two one-sided equivalence test

Braz. j. pharm. sci; 49 (2), 2013
The aim of this work is to present the two one-sided test (TOST) as an alternative approach to compare dissolution profiles of extended-release dosage forms. The dissolution profiles of oxycodone extended-release tablets containing 10 mg, 20 mg and 40 mg (reference and generic) were evaluated according t...
