Patients tend to prevent hypoglycemia by excessive saccharide intake leading to poorer glycemic control with potentially fatal consequences. This problem could be resolved by means of pellets with glucose release delayed by 120–360 min as a compensation of the antidiabetic drug peak effect. No glucose is released before; hence there is no risk of hyperglycemia and secondary complications. The pellets contain glucose in combination with an osmotically active ingredient and are coated with an...

Abstract: The objective of this study was to design and evaluate Sitagliptin Phosphate immediate release (IR) 50 mg tablet using Response Surface Methodology for the managemant of Type-II diabetes mellitus. Response surface methodology (RSM) computations for this optimization study were performed employing Minitab 16. Different formulations of immediate release were prepared by applying 2 factor 2 level Central Composite Design (CCD) using Minitab 16 which gave 13 formulation for each layer....

Context: We previously designed, developed and characterized a novel microencapsulated formulation as a platform for the targeted delivery of Probucol (PB) in an animal model of Type 2 Diabetes. Objective: The objective of this study is to optimize this platform by incorporating Chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA), a bile acid with good permeation-enhancing properties, and examine its effect in vitro.
