Background: Venlafaxine HCl is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor which is given in the treatment of depression. The delivery of the drug at a controlled rate can be of great importance for prolonged effect. Objective: The objective was to prepare and optimize the controlled release core in cup matrix tablet of venlafaxine HCl using the combination of hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymers to prolong the effect with rate controlled drug release. Methods: The controlled release core in cup matrix tablets of venlafaxine HCl were prepared using HPMC K5, K4, K15, HCO, IPA, aerosol, magnesium sterate, hydrogenated castor oil and micro crystalline cellulose PVOK-900 using wet granulation technique. Total ten formulations with varying concentrations of polymers were prepared and evaluated for different physicochemical parameters such FTIR analysis for drug identification, In-vitro drug dissolution study was performed to evaluate the amount of drug release in 24 hrs, drug release kinetics study was performed to fit the data in zero order, first order, Hixson–crowell and Higuchi equation to determine the mechanism of drug release and stability studies for 3 months as observed. Results: The results of hardness, thickness, weight variation, friability and drug content study were in acceptable range for all formulations. Based on the In vitro dissolution profile, formulation F-9 was considered to be the optimized extending the release of 98.32% of drug up to 24 hrs. The data fitting study showed that the optimized formulation followed the zero order release rate kinetics and also compared with innovator product (flavix XR) showed better drug release profile. Conclusion: The core-in-cup technology has a potential to control the release rate of freely water soluble drugs for single administration per day by optimization with combined use of hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymers.

Barrier membranes are employed in guided bone regeneration (GBR) to facilitate bone in-growth. A bioactive and biomimetic Zn-doped membrane with the ability to participate in bone healing and regeneration is necessary. The aim of the present study is to state the effect of doping the membranes for GBR with zinc compounds in the improvement of bone regeneration. A literature search was conducted using electronic databases, such as PubMed, MEDLINE, DIMDI, Embase, Scopus and Web of Science. A narrative exploratory review was undertaken, focusing on the antibacterial effects, physicochemical and biological properties of Zn-loaded membranes. Bioactivity, bone formation and cytotoxicity were analyzed. Microstructure and mechanical properties of these membranes were also determined. Zn-doped membranes have inhibited in vivo and in vitro bacterial colonization. Zn-alloy and Zn-doped membranes attained good biocompatibility and were found to be non-toxic to cells. The Zn-doped matrices showed feasible mechanical properties, such as flexibility, strength, complex modulus and tan delta. Zn incorporation in polymeric membranes provided the highest regenerative efficiency for bone healing in experimental animals, potentiating osteogenesis, angiogenesis, biological activity and a balanced remodeling. Zn-loaded membranes doped with SiO2 nanoparticles have performed as bioactive modulators provoking an M2 macrophage increase and are a potential biomaterial for promoting bone repair. Zn-doped membranes have promoted pro-healing phenotypes.

Controlled-release (CR) pharmaceutical formulations offer several advantages over the conventional, immediate release dosage forms of the same drug, including reduced dosing frequency, decreased incidence and/or intensity of adverse effects, greater selectivity of pharmacological activity, reduced drug plasma fluctuation, and better compliance. After a drug product has been registered, and is already on market, minor changes in formulation might be needed. At the same time, the product has to remain effective and safe for patients that could be confirmed via plasma drug concentrations and pharmacokinetic characteristics. It is challenging to predict human absorption and pharmacokinetic characteristics of a drug based on the in vitro dissolution test and the animal pharmacokinetic data. Therefore, the objective of this study was to establish correlation of the pharmacokinetic parameters of carbamazepine (CBZ) CR tablet formulation between the rabbit and the human model, and to establish in vitro in vivo correlation (IVIVC) based on the predicted fractions of absorbed CBZ. Although differences in mean plasma concentration profiles were notified, the data concerning the predicted fraction of drug absorbed were almost superimposable. Accordingly, it can be concluded that rabbits may be representative as an in vivo model for predicting the pharmacokinetics of the CR formulation of CBZ in humans.
