Evaluation of Manufacturer-to-Manufacturer Variability of Croscarmellose Sodium: Influence on the…
The present study aimed to investigate if the manufacturer variability of croscarmellose sodium, a superdisintegrant, could have an impact on the dissolution of sitagliptin phosphate (a highly water-soluble drug) and escitalopram oxalate (a sparingly soluble drug) from their tablets. Some of the…

Targeted colonic release formulations of mesalazine – A clinical pharmaco-scintigraphic…
Colonic targeting of orally applied therapeutic drugs remains a challenge. Tablet coatings relying on gastrointestinal pH and colonic bacterial enzymes as triggers in association with an inner alkaline layer are expected to improve targeting efficiency. Mesalazine release from three differently…

Novel Esomeprazole Magnesium-Loaded Dual-Release Mini-Tablet Polycap: Formulation, Optimization,…
Esomeprazole magnesium (EMP) is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) that reduces acid secretion. EMP has a short plasma half-life (approximately 1.3 h); hence, nocturnal acid breakthrough (NAB) frequently occurs, disturbing the patient’s nighttime comfort and sleep. We aimed to develop a novel…
