The objective of this study was to evaluate non-crystalline cellulose (NCC) as a novel tablet excipient in solid oral dosage forms in comparison with microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) and silicified microcrystalline cellulose (Prosolv®, SMCC). Significance: MCC, although a widely used tablet excipient, has diasdvantages in terms of its low dilution potential for potent drugs, and sensitivity to lubricant and moisture. SMCC, a modified version of MCC, has improved tablet compression properties....

Controlled release dosage forms are essential in certain dosage regimens where release rate of drug impacts the effectiveness for therapy. In the present study, modified release dosage form of Domperidone was developed in the form of pellets which were subsequently compressed into tablet to disintegrate and swallow by patients without changing the release profile.

Poor water solubility of pharmaceutical candidates creates a big barrier to development and clinical applications. In this study, glipizide as a poorly water soluble drug was precipitated as nanoparticles and processed by spray drying to produce fast dissolving powders. Nanosuspensions of glipizide were prepared using the sonoprecipitation technique in the presence of selected stabilizers. Sorbitol, mannitol, and microcrystalline cellulose (Avicel) were involved in the formulations as the...
