Abstract:
To investigate the preparation technology and release mechanism of tectorigenin intragastric floating sustained-release tablets. The tablet was produced by wet granulation compression method, with hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMCK15M), cross-linked polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVPP), octadecanol and sodium bicarbonate as excipient. The prescriptions were screened and optimized by orthogonal experimental design with in vitro floating capacity and drug release characteristics as the evaluation indexes. The optimization results were as follows: tectorigenin 33.3%, HPMCK15M 16.7%, PVPP 20.0%, octadecanol 13.3%, sodium bicarbonate 5%, and starch gel 10.7%. The prepared tablet can be floated within 10 s in the artificial gastric juice, lasting for 12 h in vitro, with a cumulative release rate of 70% in 10 h. The analysis of Rritger-Peppas equation showed that the sustained-release tablet had two advantages of both drug diffusion and skeleton dissolution. The tablet had good appearance and compressibility, as well as favorable floating capacity and drug release characteristics.
