The present work is focused on the preparation and in vitro release kinetics of liposomal formulation of Leuprolide Acetate. In this work, “Thin Lipid Film Hydration Method” was used for preparation of Leuprolide Acetate loaded liposomes. Prepared liposomal formulations of Leuprolide acetate was evaluated by drug entrapment study, in-vitro drug release kinetics and stability studies. The percentage drug entrapment of Leuprolide acetate for F1 and F2 formulations were found to be 78.14 ± 0.67 and 66.70 ± 0.81% respectively. In-vitro drug release study of liposomal formulations had shown zero order release pattern. Regression co-efficient (R2) value of Zero order kinetics for F1 and F2 formulations were 0.9912 and 0.9676 respectively. After storing formulations for 1 month, stability testing was done at 40C.It was found that all batches were stable. These liposomal formulations of Leuprolide acetate can be formulated for parenteral application to treat prostate cancer and in women, to treat symptoms of endometriosis (overgrowth of uterine lining outside of the uterus) or uterine fibroids.

 Objective: The present research work is an attempt to determine the effect of various diluents and superdisintegrants on drug release of eletriptan orodispersible tablets and designs an optimized formulation using 22 factorial design. Further, evaluate the tablets for various pre-compression and post-compression parameters.Methods: The drug excipient compatibility study was conducted by infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning colorimetry and X-ray diffraction studies were conducted to test the purity of the drug. The tablets were formulated by direct compression method using spray dried lactose, mannitol, microcrystalline cellulose, starch as diluents and crospovidone, croscarmellose sodium, and sodium starch glycolate as superdisintegrants. The powder formulations were evaluated for pre-compression parameters such as bulk density, tapped density, Carr’s Index, Hausner’s ratio, and angle of repose. The tablets were evaluated for post-compression parameters such as the hardness, thickness, friability, weight variation, and disintegrating time in the oral cavity, in vitro drug release kinetics studies, and accelerated stability studies. The formulations were optimized by 22 factorial design.Results: The drug and excipients were compatible, and no interaction was found. The drug was pure, and all the pre-compression parameters were within Indian Pharmacopoeial Limits. Post-compression parameters were also within limits. The disintegration time was found to be 27 s for the formulation F29 containing Croscarmellose sodium (5%) and Mannitol as diluent, and in vitro drug release was found to be 99.67% in 30 min and follows first-order kinetics. This was also the optimized formulation by 22 factorial design with a p=0.013.Conclusion: The orodispersible tablets of eletriptan were successfully formulated, and the optimized formulation was determined that can be used in the treatment of migraine.
