FORMULATION AND EVALUATION OF TASTE MASK ORALLY DISPERSIBLE PARACETAMOL TABLET
Abstract
Mostly the drugs are administered by oral route. Orally dispersible tablets are achieving importance when compared to novel oral drug delivery system. Orodispersible tablets are suitable for all age patients by masking the taste of drug. The objective of the present study was to optimize, formulate and evaluate orally dispersible tablet (ODT) of Paracetamol which disintegrates within few seconds in presence of saliva fluid by the use of super disintegrants. Â Paracetamol is widely used over-the counter analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (fever reducer). It is a very bitter drug so the patients unable to take orally; hence their bitter taste were masked. ODTs Formulations were prepared by Direct Compression and wet granulation method by the use of superdisintegrants and taste masking (F7;F8) is done by Eudragit EPO. The developed formulations were evaluated in terms of weight variation, drug content, friability, thickness, hardness, disintegration and in vitro dissolution test. Stability study of optimized formulation was also carried out as per ICH guidelines. The effects of disintegrants as well as binders in different concentration on the release profile of paracetamol ODTs were studied. The studied parameters were found to be satisfactory for all formulations. Disintegration time for the formulations was found to be less than 40 seconds. Disintegration time for all ODTs decreased with increase in disintegrant concentration. ODTs prepared using Avicel possessed least disintegration time (11s), offered better dissolution profile than that of all the ODTs formulations. Accelerated studies proved that the optimized formulation was stable even after three months.
