Statistical moments in modelling of swelling, erosion and drug release of hydrophilic matrix-tablets.
Abstract Statistical moments were evaluated as suitable parameters for describing swelling and erosion processes (along with drug release) in hydrophilic controlled release matrix tablets. The effect of four independent formulation variables, corresponding to the quantity of four polymeric matrix excipients (namely polyethylene glycol, povidone, and two grades of hydroxyl-propylmethyl cellulose) on statistical moments describing swelling (mean swelling […]
Development and analytical characterization of a new antiparasitic fenbendazole compound tablet and pharmacokinetic investigations after its oral administration to dogs.
Abstract The objective of this study was to prepare a new compound fenbendazole tablet containing 29.7 % fenbendazole, 1.50 % praziquantel and 0.059 % ivermectin for oral administration. The tablets were successfully prepared using mannitol as filler agent, polyvinyl polypyrrolidone as disintegrant, 5 % povidone (PVAK30) as a binder agent and magnesium stearate as lubricant. The appearance, hardness, fragility, time limit […]
