Abstract:
Objective To prepare sustained-release tablet contained paeoniflorin and evaluate its drug release mechanism.Methods Orthogonal design was used to obtain the best formula.Hydroxypropykmethyl cellulose(HPMC K4M)and ethylcellulose(EC 20CPS)were used as hydrophilic matrix material,and PVP which dissolved in ethanol was used as adhesive material,then the sustained-release tablet was prepared by the wet granule compression technique.The best formula was determined by powder technology,including compression ratio,angle of repose,flow rate,and angle of contact as indexes.The optimum formula was obtained by comprehensive scoring method.The drug release in vitro was determined,and the release formula was made to investigate the release mechanism.Results The optimized prescription was with HPMC 20%,EC 20%,PVP 0%,and ethanol concentration 80%.The dissolution curves in vitro showed that the drug release could be best described by the Higuchi equation(Q=0.367 5 t1/2-0.165 8,r=0.993 2)and Peppas equation(lnQ=0.72 lnt-1.608 6,r=0.991 8).It showed that the release mechanism was Fick diffusion and backbone corrosion.The release rate could meet the requirement of quality control on sustained-release tablet in Chinese Pharmacopoeia(2005).Conclusion The method of content determination is simple and sustained-releasing rate is significant.The release mechanism follows the kinetic model of sustained-release tablet.It is worth doing further research for the clinical use.
