DEVELOPMENT AND PROCESS OPTIMIZATION OF SOLID DOSAGE FORM (SKELETAL MUSCLE RELAXANT) FROM LAB SCALE TO PILOT SCALE Authors: Veeramanikandan V* and Kathiresan K
ABSTRACT
Objective: To develop and to perform process optimization of solid dosage form (Skeletal
muscle relaxant) from lab scale to pilot scale. To done the following tests on newly
formulated Cyclobenzaprine Hydrochloride tabletand done Disintegrationand Dissolution
test.
Method: Dry granulation is typically used in the manufacture of tablets if the formulation
ingredients are too fluffy or too susceptible to flowability problems for direct compression to
be a viable processing option and/or too susceptible to degradation from heat and/or moisture
for wet granulation to be a viable processing option for densification. The process is
sometimes chosen as an alternative to wet granulation when direct compression is not
feasible not because wet granulation is not feasible but because the manufacturer is more
experienced with dry granulation or to reduce processing time and/or equipment requirements
to reduce costs. The direct compression method is used.
Result: The formulation 5 (F5)- It passes the disintegration test and also it give best
dissolution values because it gradually release the drug Cyclobenzaprine Hydrochloride on
the formulation-5 (coated 2%) and in core tablet state itself also.
Conclusion: The prepared Cyclobenzaprine Hydrochloride tablet formulation 5 (F5) passes
the limits of disintegration and dissolution tests. Publication date: 01/02/21 https://ijbpas.com/pdf/2021/February/MS_IJBPAS_2021_5369.pdfDownload PDFhttps://doi.org/10.31032/IJBPAS/2021/10.2.5369
