STUDIES ON ETHMOZINE SUSTAINED-RELEASE TABLET REMAINING-FLOATING IN STOMACH
-
Abstract
An oral sustained-release system of cthmozm0(E-HBS)was developed.The in vitro release characteristics of E-HBS were shown primarily to be of the first order of kinetics(Kr=0.2436h-1).The γ-scintiphotographic study showed that E-HBS remained in the human stomach formore than 6 hours after ingestion,much longer than the conventional tablet(1~1.5h).The plasmaconcentration-time curve of E-HBS exhibited typical sustained-release characteristics.The percentageof drug released in vitro vs the percentage of drug release in vivo of E-HBS indicated excellent linearity.
