Downstream processing of spray-dried ASD with hypromellose acetate succinate – Roller compaction and…
Despite wide commercial application of hypromellose acetate succinate (HPMCAS) in spray-dried amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) drug products, little information is available in the references on downstream processing of spray-dried dispersions with HPMCAS. Poor flow and high dilution factor are a…

A Promising Single Oral Disintegrating Tablet for Co-Delivery of Pitavastatin Calcium and Lornoxicam…
Significance: Statins are an important class of drugs that help to control hyperlipidemia, and one of these statins recently used is pitavastatin calcium (PITA). Nevertheless, the most reported adverse effect of statins is myopathy. Therefore, combining statins with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory…

In vivo evaluation of a novel zero order drug releasing transdermal system of rotigotine
Background: Rotigotine is a new non-ergolinic dopamine agonist used in the treatment of Parkinson's disorder and restless legs syndrome. It has extensive pre-systemic metabolism and administration of rotigotine through transdermal route is the best way to avoid pre-systemic metabolism and thereby to…

Deformation potential and tensile strength of tablets of a dry granulated formulation
The increase in solid fraction (SF) of a packed granule bed with pressure applied during the in-die compression process results in an evolution of the tablet's matrix and mechanical strength. In this case study, the tensile strength (TS) of a dry granulated microcrystalline cellulose (MCC)/mannitol…
