Taking venlafaxine hydrochloride(VH) as a drug model, the feasibility of using chitosan(CS), carbomer(CBM) combination system to achieve this goal was studied. Formulation and process variables influencing drug release from CS–CBM matrix tablets were investigated. It was found that CS–CBM combination system weakened the potential influence of CS, CBM material properties and gastric emptying time on drug release profile. Demonstrated by direct observation, differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), in situ self-assembled polyelectrolyte complex(PEC) film was formed on the tablet surface during gastrointestinal tract transition, which contributed to the tunable and robust control of drug release. The sustained drug release behavior was further demonstrated in vivo in Beagle dogs, with level A in vitro and in vivo correlation(IVIVC) established successfully. In conclusion, CS–CBM matrix tablets are promising system to tune and control the release of highly water-soluble drugs with good system robustness.展开更多

An reversed-phase HPLC method was established for the determination of lovastatin in Beagle dog plasma. Pharmacokinetic findings were compared among three preparation(lovastatin sustained-release tablet,T p; sustained-release capsule,T J and conventional capsule). Our results showed that the pharmacokinetic parameters in 6 dogs after single-dose oral administration of three perparations were calculated. T max, C max and MRT revealed significant difference (P<0.05). Relative bioavailability was 111.5±16.9 % (T P) and 110.4%±9.6 % (T J). The pharmacokinetic parameters in the 6 dogs after multiple-dose oral administration of three perparations, T max, C max MRT and DF had significant difference (P<0.05); C av , C min and AUC 0-24 h displayed no significant difference (P>0.05). It is concluded that the lovastatin sustained-release tablet and sustained-release capsule are able to maintain a sustained-release for 24 h.展开更多

文摘The structures of solid dosage forms determine their release behaviors and are critical attributes for the design and evaluation of the solid dosage forms.Here,the 3D structures of doxazosin mesylate sustained-release tablets were parallelly assessed by micro-computed tomography(micro-CT).There were no significant differences observed in the release profiles between the RLD and the generic formulation in the conventional dissolution,but the generic preparation released slightly faster in media with ethanol during an alcohol-induced dose-dumping test.With their 3D structures obtained via micro-CT determination,the unique release behaviors of both RLD and the generic were investigated to reveal the effects of internal fine structure on the release kinetics.The structural parameters for both preparations were similar in conventional dissolution test,while the dissolutions in ethanol media showed some distinctions between RLD and generic preparations due to their static and dynamic structures.Furthermore,the findings revealed that the presence of ethanol accelerated dissolution and induced changes in internal structure of both RLD and generic preparations.Moreover,structure parameters like volume and area of outer contour,remaining solid volume and cavity volumewere not equivalent between the two formulations in 40%ethanol.In conclusion,the structure data obtained from this study provided valuable insights into the diverse release behaviors observed in various modified-release formulations in drug development and quality control.

文摘Oseltamivir phosphate(OP),renowned as one of the most effective drugs for influenza treatment,encounters several challenges,including poor stability,difficulty in swallowing,and a bitter taste,thereby limiting its compliance,particularly among children.Consequently,this study aimed to devise a novel sustained-release suspension of OP employing an ion exchange resin as a carrier to address these challenges.The OP-drug resin complex(OP-DRC)was synthesized utilizing ion exchange technology,while OP-coated microcapsules(OP-CM)were fabricated via the emulsion-evaporation method.The optimization of the formulation process for the OP sustained-release suspension was achieved through a combination of single-factor experimentation and orthogonal experimental design.Furthermore,the drug release kinetics and pharmacokinetic properties of the sustained-release suspension were thoroughly evaluated both in vitro and in vivo.Scanning electron microscopy(SEM),X-ray diffraction(XRD),and attenuated total reflectance Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy(ATR-FTIR)analyses confirmed the formation of drug-resin complexes via ionic bonding.The in vitro cumulative release rates were found to be 16%(1 h),53%(6 h),and 84%(24 h),respectively.Notably,the self-made sustained-release suspension exhibited an extended half-life(21.518 h),delayed time to peak concentration(T_(max))(6 h),and reduced maximum plasma concentration(C_(max))(0.397μg/mL)in comparison to commercial granules(half-life=8.466 h;T_(max)=2 h;C_(max)=0.631μg/mL).Additionally,the area under the curve(AUC)indicated that the bioavailability of the self-made OP suspension surpassed that of the commercial OP granules by 101%.These findings underscored the successful development of an oral OP sustained-release suspension characterized by stability,tastelessness,ease of swallowing,convenient administration,and sustained-release properties,thereby potentially enhancing drug compliance among children.

文摘Objective:To analyze the efficacy of Bifidobacterium triple viable bacteria tablets on neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis(NEC)and its impact on serum factors of the patients.Methods:From January 2021 to May 2025,88 neonates with NEC admitted to our hospital were selected as study subjects.During the study,these 88 patients were evenly divided into two groups,namely the observation group and the control group,with 44 patients in each group based on the random number table method.In terms of treatment,the control group was treated with meropenem,while the observation group received additional treatment with Bifidobacterium triple viable bacteria powder based on the treatment plan of the control group.The clinical efficacy and differences in serum inflammatory factor levels between the two groups were compared.Results:The efficacy of the observation group(90.91%)was better than that of the control group(72.73%)(P<0.05).After treatment,the levels of C-reactive protein(CRP)and procalcitonin(PCT)in both groups decreased compared to those before treatment,and the values of the above indicators in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Based on conventional treatment for NEC neonates,the use of Bifidobacterium triple viable bacteria tablets has significant efficacy and can effectively reduce serum inflammatory factor levels.
文摘This article presents a case study of a 20-year-old male patient diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy(DCM)(NYHA IV).This condition was diagnosed as"heart failure disease"(water overflowing due to yang deficiency,intermingled phlegm and stasis)in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).The treatment approach employed a combination of TCM and Western medicine.Western medicine involved the administration of sacubitril valsartan sodium tablets to inhibit ventricular remodeling,in conjunction with diuretics and cardiotonic agents.Initially,TCM utilized a static infusion of Shenfu injection,which was subsequently supplemented with Qiliqiangxin capsules to invigorate qi,warm yang,activate blood circulation,and promote diuresis.After a follow-up period of 3 years,the patient's ejection fraction(EF)improved from 23%to 51%,and the left ventricular end diastolic diameter(LVed)decreased from 68 to 52 mm,accompanied by a significant alleviation of symptoms.These findings indicate that the combined treatment of TCM and Western medicine can synergistically enhance cardiac function and impede the progression of the disease,thereby offering valuable insights for the optimal management of DCM.

文摘The objective of this study is to design sustained-release tablets using matrix technology, which can well control the release of highly water-soluble drugs with good system robustness and simple preparation process. Taking venlafaxine hydrochloride(VH) as a drug model, the feasibility of using chitosan(CS), carbomer(CBM) combination system to achieve this goal was studied. Formulation and process variables influencing drug release from CS–CBM matrix tablets were investigated. It was found that CS–CBM combination system weakened the potential influence of CS, CBM material properties and gastric emptying time on drug release profile. Demonstrated by direct observation, differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), in situ self-assembled polyelectrolyte complex(PEC) film was formed on the tablet surface during gastrointestinal tract transition, which contributed to the tunable and robust control of drug release. The sustained drug release behavior was further demonstrated in vivo in Beagle dogs, with level A in vitro and in vivo correlation(IVIVC) established successfully. In conclusion, CS–CBM matrix tablets are promising system to tune and control the release of highly water-soluble drugs with good system robustness.
文摘The objective of this study was to prepare azithromycin(AZI)sustained-release products in order to allow for a high dose to be administered,reduce gastrointestinal side-effects and increase the compliance of patients.AZI sustained-release tablets with different release performance(F-I:T_(100%)=3 h and F-II:T_(100%)=8 h in pH 6.0 phosphate buffer)were successfully prepared by wet granulation.The in vitro release rate and drug release mechanism were studied.The release rate of F-Iwas affected by dissolutionmedia with different pH,but not for F-II.HixsoneCrowellmodel was the best regression fitting model for F-I and F-II.Additionally,F-I and F-II both belonged to non-Fick diffusion.Oral pharmacokinetics of the two tablets and one AZI dispersible tablet as reference were studied in six healthy beagle dogs after oral administration.Compared with the reference,the C_(max) of F-I and F-II were decreased,and the T_(max) were prolonged,in that case which meet the requirement of sustained-release tablets.The relative bioavailability of F-I and F-II were 79.12%and 64.09%.T-test ofAUC_(0-144),and AUC_(0-∞) for F-I and F-II indicated there was no significant difference between F-I and F-II.These mean that the extended release rate did not induce different pharmacokinetics in vivo.
文摘This study pharmacokinetically examined the lovastatin sustained-release tablet and sustained-release capsule in Beagle dogs. An reversed-phase HPLC method was established for the determination of lovastatin in Beagle dog plasma. Pharmacokinetic findings were compared among three preparation(lovastatin sustained-release tablet,T p; sustained-release capsule,T J and conventional capsule). Our results showed that the pharmacokinetic parameters in 6 dogs after single-dose oral administration of three perparations were calculated. T max, C max and MRT revealed significant difference (P<0.05). Relative bioavailability was 111.5±16.9 % (T P) and 110.4%±9.6 % (T J). The pharmacokinetic parameters in the 6 dogs after multiple-dose oral administration of three perparations, T max, C max MRT and DF had significant difference (P<0.05); C av , C min and AUC 0-24 h displayed no significant difference (P>0.05). It is concluded that the lovastatin sustained-release tablet and sustained-release capsule are able to maintain a sustained-release for 24 h.

文摘Rheumatoid arthritis(RA),a globally increasing autoimmune disorder,is associated with increased disability rates due to the disruption of iron metabolism.Tripterygium glycoside tablets(TGTs),a Tripterygium wilfordii Hook.f.(TwHF)-based therapy,exhibit satisfactory clinical efficacy for RA treatment.However,drug-induced liver injury(DILI)remains a critical issue that hinders the clinical application of TGTs,and the molecular mechanisms underlying the efficacy and toxicity of TGTs in RA have not been fully elucidated.To address this problem,we integrated clinical multi-omics data associated with the anti-RA efficacy and DILI of TGTs with the chemical and target profiling of TGTs to perform a systematic network analysis.Subsequently,we identified effective and toxic targets following experimental validation in a collagen-induced arthritis(CIA)mouse model.Significantly different transcriptome–protein–metabolite profiles distinguishing patients with favorable TGTs responses from those with poor outcomes were identified.Intriguingly,the clinical efficacy and DILI of TGTs against RA were associated with metabolic homeostasis between iron and bone and between iron and lipids,respectively.Particularly,the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3(STAT3)–hepcidin(HAMP)/lipocalin 2(LCN2)–tartrate-resis tant acid phosphatase type 5(ACP5)and STAT3–HAMP–acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4(ACSL4)–lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 3(LPCAT3)axes were identified as key drivers of the efficacy and toxicity of TGTs.TGTs play dual roles in ameliorating CIA-induced pathology and in inducing hepatic dysfunction,disruption of lipid metabolism,and hepatic lipid peroxidation.Notably,TGTs effectively reversed“iron–bone”disruptions in the inflamed joint tissues of CIA mice by inhibiting the STAT3–HAMP/LCN2–ACP5 axis,subsequently leading to“iron–lipid”disturbances in the liver tissues via modulation of the STAT3–HAMP–ACSL4–LPCAT3 axis.Additional bidirectional validation experiments were conducted using MH7A and AML12 cells to confirm the bidirectional regulatory effects of TGTs on key targets.Collectively,our data highlight the association between iron-mediated metabolic homeostasis and the clinical efficacy and toxicity of TGT in RA therapy,offering guidance for the rational clinical use of TwHF-based therapy with dual therapeutic and toxic potential.

文摘Identification of chemical oxygen demand(COD)in municipal solid waste(MSW)landfill leachates is a challenging problem.This paper investigated the feasibility of using sodium persulfate(PS),a strong oxidant,as a permeable reactive barrier(PRB)filling material.Firstly,sustained-release persulfate balls were manufactured to adjust the release rate of persulfate,the oxidation agent.In addition,Fe(II)-loaded activated carbon(Fe-AC)was used to help with an even distribution of Fe(II)in the porous medium(PRB in this case).Then,the oxidation efficiency and kinetic rate of COD removal by the sustained-release balls were subjected to batch tests.A mass ratio of 1:1.4:0.24:0.7 for PS:cement:sand:water was the most efficient for COD removal(95%).The breakthrough curve for a 5 mm sustained-release ball revealed that the retardation factor was 1.27 and that the hydrodynamic dispersion coefficient was 15.6 cm^(2)/d.The corresponding half-life of COD oxidation was 0.43 d,which was comparable with the half-life of PS release from sustained-release balls(0.56 d).The sustained-release persulfate balls were shown to be an economical material with a simple recipe and production method when catalyzed by Fe-AC.Compared with cutting-edge methods,sustained-release balls used in PRBs offer significant advantages in terms of both effectiveness and economy for the preparation of sustained-release and catalytic materials.These results verified the feasibility of using sustained-release persulfate balls as a PRB material for COD removal.
