Mucoadhesive tablets have a convex surface, a diameter to cup depth ratio of 4-20 and a cup depth to edge thickness ratio of greater than 0.75 swiftly adheres and conforms to the contacting tissue. The tablets are used to administer actives such as, for example, benzocaine.
摘要:
A hydrogel forming system which comprises a hydrophobic macromer with unsaturated group terminated ends and a hydrophilic polymer which is a polysaccharide containing hydroxy groups which are reacted with unsaturated group introducing compound, is convertible by free radical polymerization to form a hydrogel containing a three dimensional crosslinked polymer network containing hydrophobic and hydrophilic components. Agent can be entrapped in the polymer network, e.g., drugs, macromolecules or synthetic or natural polymers, for controlled release therefrom. In one embodiment, a vascular stent is coated with hydrogel with therapeutic agent entrapped therein.

A hydrogel forming system which comprises a hydrophobic macromer with unsaturated group terminated ends and a hydrophilic polymer which is a polysaccharide (e.g., dextran) containing hydroxy groups which are reacted with unsaturated group introducing compound, is convertible by free radical polymerization to form a hydrogel containing a three dimensional crosslinked polymer network containing hydrophobic and hydrophilic components. Agent can be entrapped in the polymer network, e.g., drugs, macromolecules or synthetic or natural polymers, for controlled release therefrom.
摘要:
This invention relates to a composition comprising physically modified, partially pregelatinized starch, which is useful as a multi-functional excipient for solid dosage forms, a method of making such composition, and solid dosage forms prepared using the composition. Such composition is characterized by a predominance of particles having both birefringent and non-birefringent portions, a sedimentation volume of between 1.5 and 9 ml/g, and a cold water solubility of between 1 and 8%. This free-flowing starch may have an average particle size greater than 30 μm, and a moisture content of between 5 and 12% by weight. The 500 mg placebo tablet prepared from such composition at 13 kN using a manual tablet press equipped with a 1.11 cm ( 7/16″) standard concave punches has a crushing strength of at least 160 Newtons, and a disintegration time of no more than 10 minutes.
摘要:
The disclosure is directed to fine particle croscarmellose and its use in various compositions such as solid dosage forms. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to fine particle croscarmellose having a median particle size of 5 μm to 36 μm and a volume mean diameter of 40 μm or less. The specific surface area is typically 0.3 m2/g or more. The fine particle croscarmellose is useful as a disintegrant.
