Salbutamol sulphate nebules is considered as the most rapid effective route ofadministration for treatment of acute attacks of asthma .This study was carried out to formulate a stable formula of salbutamol nebulescontaining 0.1% (2.5mg / 2.5ml) of the active ingredient in a buffered solution .Stability study in different buffers at pH 3 showed that the longest shelf life wasequal to 3.5 years for formula F .In addition the bioequivalency of this formulaincomparison to ventolin® nebules was measured and it was equal to (± 5.2) %.Also it was found that there was no significant difference between the formulaand ventolin® nebules regarding their pharmacokinetic parameters which includeelimination rate constant, elimination t 0.5 and amount of the unchanged drug excretedin urine, 30 min. after administration (p<0.05) . This study may suggest that theprepared formula could be used successfully in the preparation of salbutamol sulphatenebules.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
