Abstract :

The study aimed to create easily dissolving tablets for an anti-nausea drug using synthetic substances that speed up disintegration. The Cross carmellose sodium ( 2-8%) from a synthetic source using direct compression. Testing involved extracting the drug from the prepared tablets with solutions of 0.1 N HCL and pH 7.2 phosphate buffer, measuring absorbance at 262.7nm. Post-compression tests were also conducted.
These tests included examining how the drug was released in different solutions, stability over six months at 40ºC/75% RH, and any interactions between the drug and other substances using IR spectroscopy. The formulations with 8% cros carmellose sodium , stood out as the most promising (FM8) formulation.
Short-term stability assessments of these successful formulations showed no significant changes in drug content or in how quickly they dispersed in solution (p<0.05). IR spectroscopy revealed no interactions between the drug and other components. Overall, this study indicates that natural disintegrants, particularly CCS outperformed other ones, resulting in improved dissolution of the drug.
Keywords: Tolfenamic acid, Sodium starch glycolate, Cross carmellose sodium,Direct compression method,FTIR.
