Abstract
|
|
|
Cardiovascular diseases and their treatment pose a great challenge. Many instances of cardiovascular disease occur in the early morning hours. Hence, the objective of this study was to develop a time-controlled release formulation of metoprolol succinate based on a pulsatile multiparticulate (pellets) drug delivery system. The formulation was intended to be administered in the evening at 22:00 hours to evaluate symptoms of cardiovascular disease that are experienced in the early morning hours (from 04:00 to 06:00). Drug layering followed by a swelling layer and finally by an insoluble coat application was done using a Sanmour fluid bed processor. Metoprolol succinate layered on sugar pellets (74% w/w) layered with 20% (w/w) ion doshion resin P-547 and coated with 15% (w/w) ethocel with the addition of 20% castor oil showed a lag time of 4 h and was then followed a sigmoidal release pattern with more than 95% drug having been released by the 10th h.
