Design, Development and Characterization of Sustain Release Matrix Type Tablet of Cinnarazine
Journal Title: Biomedical Journal of Scientific & Technical Research (BJSTR) - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 5
Abstract
The objective of this study was to design and evaluate oral sustain release drug delivery system for Cinnarazine using hydrophilic polymers such as and HPMC (K100M), PVP (K) batches. Four batches were prepared by using HPMC (K100M) in drug: Polymer ratio of 1:1, 1:1.5, 1:2, 1:3 and five batches using PVP (K) in ratios of 1:1, 1:1.25, 1:1.5, 1:1.75 and 1:2. Further formulation F9 was modified by varying the ratios of diluents i.e F10, F11, F12 and F13 to check the effect of diluents on drug release. Matrix tablets were prepared by wet granulation method and were evaluated. Among the formulations studied, formulation F9 containing HPMC K100M (1:2) showed sustained release effect for 20 h with cumulative percent release of 88% similar to that of the research listed drug. The kinetic treatment showed that the optimized formulation follow first order kinetic with release exponent (n) 0.579 and having good stability as per ICH guidelines. Key Words: Sustained release, Hydrophilic gums, HPMC (K100M)/ (PVP (K), Magnesium stearate, Lactose and drug Cinnarazine. Sustained release, sustained action, prolonged action controlled release, extended action, timed release, depot and repository dosage forms are terms used to identify drug delivery system that are designed to achieve or prolonged therapeutic effect by continuously releasing medication over an extended period of time after administration of a single dose. On exposure to aqueous fluid, hydrophilic matrices take up water, and the polymer starts hydrating to form a gel layer. Drug release is controlled by a gel diffusion barrier and/or by surface erosion. An initial burst of soluble drug may occur due to the surface leaching. When a matrix containing a sellable glassy polymer comes in contact with an aqueous medium, there is an abrupt change from a glassy to a rubbery state, which is associated with the swelling process. Through visual inspection, the physical appearance of pure drug was carried out as per United State Pharmacopeia XV. The Melting point was determined by the capillary method using Melting point apparatus. The capillary tube was filled by pressing the open end gently into pure drug sample by tapping the bottom of the capillary on a hard surface so that the drug pack down into the bottom of the tube. When the drug was packed into the bottom of the tube, the tube was place into the slot behind the eye-piece on the Melttemperature. Make sure the units were plug in and set to zero, and then turn it on. Temperature range was noted when sample start melting. Triplicate observations were recorded for melting range. A definite quantity (10 mg) of drug was dissolved in 10 ml of each investigated solvents at room temperature. The solubility was observed only by UV method.
