RESUMO
Objective: To evaluate therelease characteristicsin vitro, pharmacokinetics in rabbits and in vivo-in vitro correlation of tectorigenin floating sustained-release tablets (TFSRT). Methods: The release characteristics of TFSRTin vitro was detected with HPLC in the artificial gastric fluid. Six Japanese Giant Ear Rabbits as self crossover control, which were given TFSRT and suspension liquid (200mg). The concentration of tectorigenin in plasma was determined with HPLC and the data were processed with PKsolver 2.0 software. Results:The cumulative releaserate of TFSRTin vitro was over 70% in 10 h.The pharmacokineticsin rabbits showed that TFSRT and tectorigenin suspension liquid conformed to the single compartment model and the pharmacokinetic parameters were obtained: tmax: (2.809±0.371) and (0.442±0.138)h, Cmax: (6.317±1.337) and (9.662±2.759) μg/mL, AUC0-t: (74.156±10.420) and (57.059±13.309) μg∙h/mL. The relative bioavailability of TFSRT was (134.63±27.94)%, so there was significant difference between them. Conclusion: TFSRT can release slowly, so it increase the relative bioavailability significantly. The correlation between the absorption in vivo and release in vitro is fine (r=0.9879), so the release rate in vitro can control the quality of TFSRT.
RESUMO
This study was aimed to screen out an optimal pharmaceutical formulation of Wuji Gastric Floating Sus-tained-release Tablets. With multicomponents of release for index, the extra-floating ability of the tablets was stud-ied with the orthogonal test of four excipients, which were HPMC (K100M), PEG 6000, sodium bicarbonate and se-tanol. The results showed that the combined optimal pharmaceutical formulation was 35% HPMC, 5% PEG 6000, 10% sodium bicarbonate, 15% setanol, 10% MCC and 25% main drug. It was concluded that Wuji Gastric Floating Sustained-release Tablets had the characteristics of slow-release and long floating duration which comply with re-quirements of formulation design. This preparation technique is with good maneuverability.
RESUMO
Objective To prepare gastric floating sustained-release tablets of Triperygium wilfordii and study its behavior of floating and release characteristics. Methods The sustained-release tablets were prepared by direct powder compared to tablets technique. The floating and release of total diterpene-lactones were used as indicators to evaluate and optimize the formulation. Then the formulation was optimized by influential factors and orthogonal design test. Results The gastric floating sustained-release tablets which was taken orally twice one day, were prepared with HPMCK4M as matrix, cetyl alcohol as floating assistant, sodium bicarbonate as gas-producer, PVP as poremaking. The tablets released 30% in 2 h, 60% in 6 h, exceeding 90% in 12 h, the release behavior of the tablets was fitted to Higuchi equation,and it was properly characterized by the drug diffusion and bulk erosion mechanism. Conclusion Gastric floating sustained-release tablets of T. wilfordii prepared has good behavior of floating and release characteristics.
