Iron(II) sulfate release from drop-formed lipophilic matrices developed by special hot-melt technology.

Iron(II) sulfate-containing lipophilic matrices were developed by a special hot-melt technology (melt solidification in drops), using stearin, white wax and their mixture as conventional bed materials. The special technology resulted in spherical particles which can be filled directly into capsules; these store iron as a depot and ensure a slow and uniform release, whereby the irritation of the gastric mucosa by the iron can be decreased. The rates of dissolution of the iron(II) sulfate from the various lipophilic matrices were different, but fundamentally low. Kinetic calculations demonstrated that the rate of dissolution of the iron(II) sulfate was of approximately zero kinetic order. The results of in vivo experiments on rabbits correlated well with the in vitro data. The plasma curves for the animals treated with the iron(II) sulfate preparations varied with the excipients in the depot products. The properties and ratio of the bed materials influenced the release of the iron(II) sulfate. In all probability, the release of the active agent can be regulated through the use of a melt of stearin and white wax in different ratios. The development products functioned as a sustained-release system and ensured elimination of the irritation of the gastric mucosa. At the same time, the results justified the applicability of the special hot-melt technology in the development of the solid dosage form.

Study of in vitro and in vivo dissolution of theophylline from film-coated pellets.

Tests were performed on the influence of polymer coating films on the rates and the extents of in vitro and in vivo liberation of theophylline from pellets. Uncoated and coated pellets were used in the experiments. The coating material was Eudragit L; The film thickness was varied. The in vivo liberation of theophylline was studied in rabbits. The serum level of the released drug measured with a TDX Analyser. No appreciable difference was observed between the uncoated and the coated pellets as concern the maximum release data, but a significant shift was found in t(max) for Eudragit L coated pellets.

Influence of Avicel PH-301 on the compressibility of alpha-methyldopa and phenobarbitone in direct compression.

The aim of this work was to investigate the compressibility behavior of alpha-methyldopa and phenobarbitone using a Korsch EK0 instrumented eccentric tablet machine, with force-time and force-displacement curves constructed and applied to calculate different compressional values to study the compressional behavior. The results of this work revealed a difference in compressibility behavior between the two drugs during the compressional process. alpha-Methyldopa gave an abnormal compressional curve with high friction in the pre- and postcompressional phases. A residual force could be seen on the lower punch. Furthermore, capping and sticking were observed visually during tablet pressing, indicating poor compressibility behavior. In the case of phenobarbitone, no friction was observed in the precompressional phase, but there was higher friction in the postcompressional phase, especially in the ejection phase. The compressibility of the drugs was improved by the addition of Avicel PH-301 and magnesium stearate.

Development of spherical crystals of acetylsalicylic acid for direct tablet-making.

The production of spherical crystals has recently gained great attention due to the fact that the crystal habit (form, surface, size, etc.) can be modified during the crystallization process. Spherical crystals of ASA were developed by non-typical and typical spherical crystallization techniques. The non-typical spherical crystallization process (conventional stirred tank method) resulted in few monocrystals and non-spherical crystal agglomerates. The typical spherical crystallization process was carried out by the three solvent-system (ethanol-water-carbon tetrachloride). The products were qualified by morphological study, NIR investigation, salicylic acid content, dissolution rate, studies on flowability, compactibility, cohesivity and tablettability. The results demonstrate that only typical spherical crystallization can be recommended for the production of spherical crystals of ASA. Only product made by this technique shows excellent flow properties and favourable compactibility, cohesiveness and tablettability values.

[The liberation of phenylbutazone from tablets].

The liberation of phenylbutazone from tablets prepared by wet granulation was examined. It was found that the solution process can be described by the equation c = cs (l-e-K.t alpha). The influence of the binder concentration and the disintegrant on the liberation rate was also studied. The increase of the Klucel MF concentration accelerated the liberation of the agents. Among the disintegrants Polyplasdone XL and cyclodextrin block polymer turned out to be very good.

[Direct compression nitrazepam tablets].

Tablets of nitrazepam were made by direct compression. The influence of different dry binders and other adjuvants on the physical parameters of the tablets and their texture (scanning electron microscope: SEM) were examined. Changes in the physical parameter can be explanded if the texture is known.

[The polymorphism of drugs in powders and tablets. 1. The preparation and characterization of polymorphic modifications of phenobarbital].

The characterisation of three phenobarbital modifications by thermic examination procedures (DSC, DTA) is being described. Modification I was obtained by thermic treatment of the brands (modification II) from Hungary and the GDR. The spray product prepared, consisting of very fine hollow spheres, was identified as modification III. Besides the particle size distribution the form of the particle was determined by scanning electron microscopy (REM). The best results regarding saturation solubility and speed of dissolution were found for the spray product.

[The use of dry binding materials for the direct compression of phenylbutazone].

Direct compression of phenylbutazone is possible only with addition of excipients of several kinds, because its material properties are unfavourable. It is necessary to use besides disintegrant glidant, lubricant and antistatic agents too. The authors investigated the influence of two microcrystalline cellulose binders (Avicel and Heweten) for the pressability of phenylbutazone and on properties of the tablets, respectively. It was determined the physical parameters of the tablets and the dissolution characteristics of the active ingredient. It has been found, that Heweten optimized the exactness of dosage of the tablets as well as resulted in a faster dissolution than Avicel. Therefore, Heweten proved to be the more suitable binder.

[Study of the texture of furosemid tablets. Part 2 (author's transl)].

The authors studied the alterations of the texture and of the physical properties of Furosemid tablets, which are prepared with the aid of hydroxypropylcellulose mucilage, that occur during storage. Klucel MF mucilage proved to be a very good binding agent. Though the film bursted on drying during storage, by which the pore volume of the tablets increased, the mechanical strength remained almost unchanged. The cause of this is the formation of solid bridges.
