The aim of this study was to develop a palatable donepezil (DP) orodispersible film (ODF) to facilitate the swallowing process and investigate the effect of cyclodextrin on taste-masking based on dynamic process and in vivo drug absorption. Complexation of DP with hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) was applied to mask the bitter taste then the prepared complexes were incorporated into ODF using solvent casting method. The taste-masking efficiency was evaluated by e-tongue; meanwhile the...

Three versatile formulations (F1, F2, and F3) of orodispersible films (ODFs) containing donepezil hydrochloride were prepared from cellulose derivatives by solvent casting technique for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.

Abstract In the early development stage of orally disintegrating films (ODFs), suitable evaluation methods must be used. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the feasibility of using an electronic taste sensor and a flow-through cell for ODFs. A pullulan film loaded with donepezil hydrochloride (DH) was designed, as a model ODF. The film was prepared using the solution/solvent casting method. First, the dissolution profiles were compared by using a paddle method (PD) and a flow-through cell...
