Preparation andin vitroevaluation of slow release ketoprofen microcapsules formulated into tablets and capsules

Abstract: Ketoprofen powder was encapsulated with Eudragit RL/RS polymer solutions in isopropanol-acetone 1:1, using a simple and rapid method. Microcapsules were prepared using Eudragit solutions with different RL/RS ratios. The encapsulation process produces free-flowing microcapsules with good drug content and marked decrease in dissolution rate. The retardation in release profile of ketoprofen from microcapsules was a function of the polymer ratio employed in the encapsulation process. In vitro release of ketoprofen… Show more

“…1,7,8) Such prolonged release dosage forms are often utilized to avoid frequent dosing of drugs that show a short biological half life. 6) These systems are available for drugs the plasma concentration of which is critically related to efficacy. That is, such systems can achieve maintenance of drug concentration at the therapeutic range in the body.…”

“…Microparticulate dosage forms are often used for controlled drug release. 1,[6][7][8] Further, their gastrointestinal transit can be modified with mucoadhesive polymers. [9][10][11] When the mucoadhesive polymers interact with mucous membranes of the GI tract, they are considered to be localized or trapped at the adhesive sites, which may result in prolonged duration of absorption.…”

“…MS, MS-P or MS-H (30-50 mg) were added to 300 ml of the JP XIII second ‰uid, pH 6.8, which was stirred at a moderate rate, 60 rpm, to re‰ect the in vivo situation; this rate was similar to that in other release studies. 2,7,10) Aliquots (2 ml) were withdrawn at appropriate times. Immediately after each sampling, the aliquot wasˆltered with a membraneˆlter (0.45 mm in pore diameter) and the same volume of fresh JP XIII second ‰uid at 37°C was supplemented to the test medium.…”
