Effects of Formulation and Process Variables on Gastroretentive Floating Tablets with A High-Dose Soluble Drug and Experimental Design Approach

Abstract: To develop sustained release gastro-retentive effervescent floating tablets (EFT), a quality-based experimental design approach was utilized during the composing of a hydrophilic matrix loaded with a high amount of a highly water-soluble model drug, metformin HCl. Effects of the amount of polyethylene oxide WSR 303 (PEO), sodium bicarbonate, and tablet compression force were used as independent variables. Various times required to release the drug, tablet tensile strength, floating lag time, tablet ejection fo… Show more

“…Nonetheless, no systematic study has yet been carried out to investigate the effect of sodium bicarbonate on drug release kinetics, so it is important to investigate its impact in the effervescent process on drug release kinetics of higher water-soluble drugs.The gas entrapped membrane was usually observed during storage leading to failures in floating and sustained release these can be overcome by the using glyceryl monostearate and talc as an anti-tacking agent. [18,19] As shown in Figure 2. The effervescent reaction among carbonate/bicarbonate salts, citric/tartic acid, CO2 is released in presence of water when the formulation is put in the beaker it will sink with a production of gas it rises up and floats.…”

“…Floating tablets are composed of swellable hydrophilic matrix forming polymers that swell in contact with gastric fluids, and the air entrapped in the hydrated polymers bestows the buoyancy [81]. Both for single-and bi-layered tablets, non-ionic hydrophilic polymers, such as HPMC, HPC and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), are commonly employed since they are not affected by pH [8]. HPMC is the most widely used material with low viscosity grades chosen for floating purpose [29].…”

“…Floating tablets are commonly chosen for the controlled release of hydrophobic active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and are the formulation of choice for potent drugs [86] since it is challenging to maintain tablet buoyancy in high-dose tablets due to their high bulk density [8]. For promoting the dissolution of hydrophobic drugs, the incorporation of a surfactant to the hydrophilic polymeric matrix could be necessary in order to reduce the crystallinity of the drugs, thereby increasing the aqueous solubility and dissolution rate of the APIs [87].…”

“…For a long time, oral-controlled release (CR) formulations are popularly used for controlling the release of drugs. Short transit time of drug with the absorption window in the stomach causes the release of drug in the non-absorbing distal segment of GIT leading to poor bioavailability [1,2]. These features are responsible for the design of gastroretentive formulations [3,4].…”
