Effect of cross-linked biodegradable polymers on sustained release of sodium diclofenac-loaded microspheres

Saha, Avik Kumar; Ray, Sarbani Dey.

Braz. j. pharm. sci; 49 (4), 2013

The objective of this study was to formulate an oral sustained release delivery system of sodium diclofenac(DS) based on sodium alginate (SA) as a hydrophilic carrier in combination with chitosan (CH) and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (SCMC) as drug release modifiers to overcome the drug-related adverse...
