Objective: This present study was aimed to evaluate the potential of chitosan succinate as a coating polymer.Methods: In this study, chemical modification of chitosan was performed by substituting a succinate group into chitosan’s amine group. This reactionused a water-solvent method to obtain chitosan succinate. Chitosan succinate was characterized and used as a coating agent in enteric-coated tabletdosage forms containing sodium diclofenac as the drug model at concentrations of 3% and 4% and combined it with hydroxypropyl methylcellulosephthalate (HPMCP) in ratios of 3:1 and 2:1 (3%). The obtained tablets were evaluated based on their physical appearance, uniformity of weight andsize, thickness film, disintegration time for an hour in acid, and dissolution profile.Results: Although the enteric-coated tablets with 3% and 4% chitosan succinate dissolved after 1 h in acid, they could not hold drug release in theacid medium under 10%. The enteric-coated tablet combined with chitosan succinate and HPMCP (3:1 and 2:1) at 3% did not dissolve after 1 h in theacid medium and could hold drug release up to 8.53% in acid.Conclusion: A combination of chitosan succinate and HPMCP (3:1 and 2:1) at 3% has a better ability to hold drug release in acid medium and met therequirement as a coating in enteric-coated tablet dosage forms.

Enteric coated dosage form bypasses the stomach and releases the drug into the small intestine. Advantages of enteric coated pellets in comparison with enteric coated tablets are a) Pellets provide rapid onset of action and faster drug release due to the smaller size than tablets and b) Pellets exhibit less residence time of acid-labile drugs in the stomach compared to tablets. Dosage form coat can be damaged by longer resistance time in the stomach. The present review summarizes the current state of enteric coated pellets where core pellets are prepared by extrusion-spheronization technique and the enteric coating is applied in a fluidized bed processor. Two approaches are involved in the preparation of core pellets. In the first approach, a mixture of drug and excipient(s)/co-processed excipient is passed through extruders to prepare core pellets. In the second approach, excipient core pellets are prepared by extrusion technique and the drug is layered onto it before the enteric coating. The excipients present in the core pellets decide immediate or extended release of drug in the intestine. The coprocessed excipient pellets provide less batch variability and provide a platform for layering of many drugs before enteric coating. Some patents included enteric coating pellets [CN105456223 (A), CN105596310 (A), CN105616371 (A), CN105663095 (A), CN101611766B, CN106511862 (A), CN106668018 (A), CN106727381 (A), CN106924222 (A), TW200624127 (A), US 2017/0165248A1, US 2017/0224720A1] are discussed.

The objective of the work is to try and assess the applicability and manufacturing possibilities to optimize an enteric coated tablet formulation containing Rabeprazole sodium as the drug aiming at the anti-acidity activity with desired drug release properties. Enteric coated tablet was chosen as dosage form being a cost-effective technology for pharmaceutical industry requiring fewer procedures. Before the implementation of the pharmaceutical technological aims, analysis of critical factors influencing the manufacture was carried out. Reproducible manufacturing processes are required to achieve suitability and tablets uniformity to achieve the uniform properties of tablets, which could influence experimental parameters. Rabeprazole in core content of tablet is blended with HPMC (different grades), xanthan gum, PVPK30, mannitol, crosspovidone, Sodium starch glycolate, Colloidal silicon dioxide to formulate the product. Prepared formulation was tested for weight and content uniformity, physical characteristics, in vitro dissolution behaviour, acid resistance and accelerated stability studies. All studies performed resulted and revealed for assurance of such enteric coated tablet formulation for drug Rabeprazole with optimum characteristics, concluding it as a promising approach to enhance drug release characteristics. Keywords: Rabeprazole, HPMC, enteric coated tablets, In Vitro evaluation.

The aim of this study was to develop a pH responsive enteric coated extended release multiparticulate dosage form containing a model drug ketoprofen, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug used for rheumatoid arthritis. The drug loaded pellets in matrix form were prepared by using extrusion/spheronization method. The optimized pelletization method revealed that extrusion using 1 mm sieve plate and spheronization friction disc of 2mm carried out at 700 rpm for 5-10 minutes resulted in good spherical pellets and uniformity in size. Evaluated core pellets were coated with polymer Eudragit® RS 30D on Fluid bed coater to achieve a sustainable release for 12 hours. Ketoprofen as like other NSAID have been reported for gastric mucosal irritation so a pH responsive barrier coat of Eudragit L®100-55 was employed on a pan coater for abstaining release in acidic media. The formulated pellets were characterized for shape and size uniformity, friability, surface morphology studies. The particle size of core and polymer coated pellets were found to be in the range of 0.95-1.2 mm and 1.32-1.51 mm respectively. The pellets were spherical in shape with smooth texture and uniformity in size. In-vitro dissolution tests were carried out for pellets in a USP type II dissolution apparatus in media-simulating pH conditions of the gastrointestinal tract. The release of the ketoprofen from formulated pellets was established in pH 1.2 for a period of 2 h, followed by pH 7.5 for rest of the study. The study concluded that the formulated multiparticulate dosage form of ketoprofen was able to relieve symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis.
