Formulation and characterization of orodispersible tablet of glimepiride
Abstract
The present study is regarding, Glimepiride is one derivatives of sulfonyl urea used in the treatment of Type II DM which classified as class-II (BCS) of high permeability and low degree of solubility. The endeavor is to improve its solubility by solvent vaporization method to enhance…

An evaluation of film coating materials and their predicted oro-esophageal gliding performance for…
Oral drug therapy is generally provided in the form of solid oral dosage forms (SODF) that have to be swallowed intact and move throughout the oro-esophageal system until reaching the stomach. Previous studies have provided evidence that the surface characteristics of SODF play an important role…

Evaluation of Newly Designed and Traditional Punches in Manufacturing of Scored ODTs
To overcome difficulties in splitting, uneven breaking and inconsistent dosing frequently reported with scored tablets, a novel punch was proposed for the manufacturing of easy breakable tablets (EBTs). In this work, the performance of the EBT punch was investigated vs. a ridged one for traditional…

Investigation of granular dynamics in a continuous blender using the GPU-enhanced discrete element…
Continuous powder blending is an essential operation during continuous pharmaceutical manufacturing. However, the complex granular dynamics in the blender is still poorly understood. This study employs a graphic processor unit (GPU) enhanced discrete element method (DEM) to analyse the granular…

Development of a multiparticulate drug delivery system for in situ amorphisation
In the current study, the concept of multiparticulate drug delivery systems (MDDS) was applied to tablets intended for the amorphisation of supersaturated granular ASDs in situ, i.e. amorphisation by microwave irradiation within the final dosage form. The MDDS concept was hypothesised to ensure…

In Vivo Evaluation of a Gastro-Resistant HPMC-Based “Next Generation Enteric” Capsule
Many orally dosed APIs are bioavailable only when formulated as an enteric dosage form to protect them from the harsh environment of the stomach. However, an enteric formulation is often accompanied with a higher development effort in the first place and the potential degradation of fragile APIs…

Atomic Layer Coating to Inhibit Surface Crystallization of Amorphous Pharmaceutical Powders
Preventing crystallization is a primary concern when developing amorphous drug formulations. Recently, atomic layer coatings (ALCs) of aluminum oxide demonstrated crystallization inhibition of high drug loading amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) for over 2 years. The goal of the current study was to…

Varied Bulk Powder Properties of Micro-Sized API within Size Specifications as a Result of Particle…
Micronized particles are commonly used to improve the content uniformity (CU), dissolution performance, and bioavailability of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API). Different particle engineering routes have been developed to prepare micron-sized API in a specific size range to deliver desirable…

Spray-freeze-dried lyospheres: Solid content and the impact on flowability and mechanical stability
Handling low-density pharmaceutical products, such as lyophilises, presents a challenge. Spray-freeze-dried (SFD) particles, overcoming many of these challenges, were analysed regarding flowability, mechanical stability, product properties (morphology, particle size) and physicochemical properties…
