Fueron elaborados 6 lotes de tabletas a partir de teofilina, Methocel E4MCRÃ’ y Ludipress LCEÃ’, se mantuvo constante la proporción del fármaco y se modificó la composición del excipiente, para estudiar el efecto de la formulación sobre la liberación, la que se evaluó a ocho pHs. El efecto del Methocel E4MCRÃ’ en la formulación 2 fue desintegrante, para la 3 este efecto se presentó en una menor magnitud y fue contrarrestado por la formación del gel a causa de la hidratación del Methocel E4MCRÃ’. En las formulaciones 4, 5 y 6, los perfiles de disolución se caracterizaron por la aparición de dos fases con el mismo orden cinético, donde la primera fase corresponde a la disolución rápida de la teofilina ubicada sobre la superficie de la tableta, y la segunda a una liberación más uniforme por la difusión de la teofilina a través del gel formado. Los perfiles para todas las formulaciones fueron comparados con los perfiles de dos productos del mercado Colombiano administrados para 12 horas, siendo la formulación 4 la que presentó las características deseadas.
Controlled Release (CR) tablets were prepared using the following: anhydrous theophylline (Parke Davis) Methocel E4MCR® (supplied by Colorcon Sucursal de Colombia, Dow Chemical Company), Ludipress LCEÃ’ (supplied by BASF Fine Chemicals) and Magnesium Stearate. There were studied the CR tablets at eight pHs. The Methocel E4MCRÃ’ effect in the lowest Methocel E4MCRÃ’ formulation was disintegrant. 4, 5 and 6 formulations dissolution profiles were characterized by an initial burst effect with a greater amount of drug released, followed by a more-uniform release of drug. In the initial phase, the drug release was possibly due to the dissolution of free drug on the surface of the matrix and erosion. In the second phase, a linear relationship of the natural logarithm of remanent percentage drug to time was observed from such formulations, suggesting a diffusion-controlled mechanism of drug release. There were compared the dissolutions profiles of all the formulations with two formulations already marketed, it was found that 4 formulation showed the desired dissolution profile.
