Abstract

In the present study, we have designed a press-coated pulsatile delivery tablet (PDT) of Terbutaline sulphate (TS) intended for prevention of early-morning asthma attacks. The formulation is capable of giving burst release of drug after 6 h of lag time. In this study, a press-coating technique was employed to coat a fast-release core tablet containing TS with a polymeric release retarding coat comprising of ethyl cellulose, HPMC K15M and Carbopol 971P. Fast-release core tablets were formulated using sodium starch glycolate with croscarmellose sodium (disintegrants). Optimization of PDT was done by response surface methodology employing the Box-Behnken design. The formulations underwent physical evaluation and drug release study. A lag time of 6 h was obtained by the optimized PDT formulation (OP1). The accelerated stability studies showed no significant changes in physicochemical properties and release behaviour before and after storage. Further in vivo pharmacokinetic studies were performed on rabbits to determine pharmacokinetic parameters. The formulation OP1 showed C max and T max values of 162.92 ± 9.85 ng/mL and 10 h, respectively. A large value of MRT for the formulation OP1 (12.34 ± 0.778 h) signifies that formulation OP1 was able to delay the release. The study concludes that the chronotherapeutic PDT of TS can be successfully formulated and used to provide a pulsatile release for the chronotherapy of nocturnal asthma.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 12. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 07 December 2018.
All research outputs
#2,687,492
of 23,047,237 outputs
Outputs from AAPS PharmSciTech
#54
of 1,474 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#51,738
of 314,625 outputs
Outputs of similar age from AAPS PharmSciTech
#1
of 16 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,047,237 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 88th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,474 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.1. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 96% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 314,625 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 83% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 16 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 93% of its contemporaries.
