Abstract

The aim of this research was to investigate the possibility physical interaction occurred between of levodopa and benzerazide hydrochloride, which known as compounds used in combination for the the antiparkinson. The “cold contact methods” was used which was developed from Kofler contact method’s (hot stage methods). Thermograms Differential Scanning Calorimetry and difractograms X-Ray indicated that levodopa – benzerazide hydrochloride tent to form a peritecticum-molecular compound physical interaction with eutectics point at 4:6 and 9:1 molar ratios.Key words: benzerazide hydrochloride, cold contact method, levodopa, physical interaction.

Abstract

Captopril has a short biological half life (1-3h) and has been used for long-term treatment of hypertension. The properties of captopril such as freely water-soluble and instability in intestinal environment lead to the difficulty of developing captopril as a sustained-release preparation. . In this study, sustained-release of captopril was prepared with a matrix system using sodium alginat as a polymeric forming-matrix. The ratio of sodium alginat and captopril was 1:2. Matrix system was obtained by forming alginate cross-linked with a various concentration of calcium acetate. Xanthan gum was used to help cross-linked reaction. Tablet was prepared by wet granulation and the dissolution test was performed in HCl 0.01 N, paddle method, 100 rpm, for 12 h. Although release profile of captopril from all formula developed were different, the release of captopril sustained up 12 h. Formula containing 30 % of xanthan gum and 40 % of sodium alginate showed the best release profile of captopril and the hardness of tablets do not influence to the release of captopril. Tablet of captopril with a crosslinked system of alginate sustained the release of captopril until 12 h .Key words: captopril, sustained-release, sodium alginat, calcium acetat.
