Aim: Nateglinide is a quick acting anti-diabetic medication whose potent activity lasts for a short duration. One of the dangerous side effects of nateglinide administration is rapid hypoglycemia, a condition that needs to be monitored carefully to prevent unnecessary fatalities. The aim of the study was to develop a longer lasting and slower releasing formulation of nateglinide that could be administered just once daily. Methods: Matrix tablets of nateglinide were prepared in combination with the polymers hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), eudragits, ethyl cellulose and polyethylene oxide and the formulated drug release patterns were evaluated using in vitro and in vivo studies. Conclusion: Of the seventeen formulated matrix tablets tested, only one formulation labelled HA-2 that contained 15% HPMC K4M demonstrated release profile we had aimed for. Further, swelling studies and scanning electron microscopic analysis confirmed the drug release mechanism of HA-2. The optimized formulation HA-2 was found to be stable at accelerated storage conditions for 3 months with respect to drug content and physical appearance. Mathematical analysis of the release kinetics of HA-2 indicated a coupling of diffusion and erosion mechanisms. In-vitro release studies and pharmacokinetic in vivo studies of HA-2 in rabbits confirmed the sustained drug release profile we had aimed for.

PURPOSE. Find a novel delivery system for oral administration of drugs that have absorption window in the upper part of gastrointestinal (GI) track. METHODS. Dipyridamole was chosen as the model drug. A novel system, which combined the osmotic pump controlled release system and the floating system, was designed; matrix tablets (MT) were prepared for compares. The effects of pH, temperature and hydrodynamic conditions on drug release and the floating behavior of floating osmotic pump system (FOP) were investigated. In vivo evaluation was performed by a three-crossover study in six Beagle dogs relative to the conventional tablet (CT). Cumulative percent input in vivo was compared with that of in vitro release profiles. RESULTS. Floating behavior of FOP, drug releases from FOP and MT were sensitive to pH of dissolution media but not sensitive to temperature; the release of dipyridamole from MT was influenced by stirring rate while drug release from FOP was not. AUC of FOP was larger than MT and CT. The linear correlations between fraction absorbed in vivo and fraction dissolved in vitro was established for FOP-a true zero-order release formula, whereas only a nonlinear correlation was obtained for MT. CONCLUTIONS. FOP could be a novel way for the oral administration for drugs like dipyridamole.

Objective: The goal of the present investigation was to improve the solubility and bioavailability of atovaquone tablet, using in-house biosynthesized biosurfactant in the ternary system of solid dispersion containing hydrophilic polymers with varying concentrations of biosurfactant. Atovaquone is an anti-malarial agent and belongs to biopharmaceutical classification system class IV. Methods: The solid dispersion of binary and ternary mixture was prepared using hydroxyl propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) and biosurfactant respectively by a solvent evaporation method. All the atovaquone tablet formulations were prepared by incorporation of physical mixture, binary and ternary solid dispersed products with excipients by direct compression method. Pre-compression and post-compression parameters of atovaquone tablets were evaluated. In vivo bioavailability study was performed using female albino rabbits. Results: In vitro dissolution profile of binary and ternary system of solid dispersion products showed 8.65% and 34.64% respectively. Precompression and post-compression values of all atovaquone tablets formulations were within the specified limits. In vitro dissolution efficiency of F2 and F5 were 1.44 fold and 6.62 fold respectively, in accordance to the F1. In vivo study revealed that bioavailability of optimized formulation F5 was increased by 2.5 times and time to reach peak concentration was reduced to 1.4 h, in accordance to pure atovaquone suspension. Conclusion: Potential application of biosurfactant in the solid dosage form of atovaquone tablet was proved for enhanced dissolution rate and bioavailability of atovaquone for malaria treatment.
