An Overview on Polymethacrylate Polymers in Gastroretentive Dosage Forms

Abstract: Drugs with lower bioavailability need repeated dosing to reach the minimum effective therapeutic concentration in plasma. In order to retain the drug in upper part of gastro intestinal tract (GIT) which is the major absorption window for majority of drugs and also to have localized effect many advances in drug delivery were made. Researchers mainly emphasize on to get patient compliance by formulating single dose, targeted and minimal side effects dosage form. The design must give constant drug release for lon… Show more

“…They are applied as film coat, enteric coat, sustaining the drug release and as a tablet matrix. Similar kind of results has been demonstrated for different drugs using combination with polymethyl methacrylate which is reported in a review by Gupta et al [26]. Hydroxyethyl Cellulose (HEC) can be useful in control of time-related symptoms which need timecontrolled or site-specific delivery in the gastrointestinal tract.…”

“…As illustrated in Figure 3(A) , the endothermic peak of untreated drug was obtained as 110.38 °C, which was broadened and shifted to 103.82 °C in PM. This might be because PEL in PM was miscible with polymer in the molten state (Paradkar et al., 2004 ; Gupta et al., 2015 ). In SRSD (F6) formulation, endothermic drug peak was disappeared, implying the change of drug crystallinity to amorphous state.…”

“…The dissolution of this system depends on the thickness and solubility of polymers in water. 51 Faster or slower solubility will cause the drug to be released into the system uncontrollably and can reduce the effect of the drug.…”

“…It can float on the surface of gastric fluid without affecting the gastric emptying rate because of its low density. 2 The GRDDS is a sustained drug delivery system that can keep the drug for a longer time. The advantages of GRDDS include increasing bioavailability, increasing solubility in high pH, control of therapy level to reduce fluctuation, and prolonging half-time to reduce the frequency of drug administration.…”
