SUSTAINED RELEASE MULTI-PARTICULATES FORMULATION OF STEREO-SELECTIVE MOLECULE OF KETOPROFEN BY FLUID BED PROCESSOR
The aim is to prepare sustained release multi-particulates dosage form of Dexketoprofen trometamol, which is the active isomer of ketoprofen. Utilization of active moiety with minimum drug dose and administration frequency sustained-release multi-particulates dosage form is explored. Sustained release pellets of the dexketoprofen trometamol were developed by the fluidized bed technology, in which ...

A CRITICAL REVIEW ON THE CONTRACEPTIVE AND ABORTIFACIENT MEDICINAL HERB’S DESCRIBED IN BHAVAPRAKASHA NIGHANTU
Bhavaprakasha is Ayurveda's important nighantu (Lexicon) written in the sixteenth century AD. Many useful herbs are mentioned in Bhavaprakasha Nighantu that can be used daily. However, one common misconception is that all ayurvedic drugs are safe and devoid of any side effects since they are of herbal origin is not true. Ayurvedic herbs sometimes become harmful based on the condition of the patien...

DRUG UTILISATION STUDY OF ANTI-EPILEPTIC DRUGS IN PEDIATRIC PATIENTS IN A TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL
Few studies are available to study the drug utilization pattern and adverse drug reactions of anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) in paediatric population. Hence, this study was planned with the primary objective of studying the drug utilization pattern of anti-epileptic drugs in a tertiary care centre pediatric population. The secondary objective was to assess adverse drug reactions in the same populatio...

AN INVESTIGATION OF THE DNA BINDING PROPERTIES OF Mn2+, Co2+ AND Ni2+ COMPLEXES WITH 2-AMINOBENZONITRILE AND OCTANOATE ION AS LIGANDS
Three novel metal complexes of 2-aminobenzonitrile (ABN) and octanoate ion (OC) with Mn2+, Co2+, and Ni2+ have been prepared by using microwave irradiation. The DNA-binding properties of the free ligand 2-aminobenzonitrile and its Mn2+, Co2+ and Ni2+ complexes have been investigated by fluorescence measurements. The results suggest that ABN, Mn2+, Co2+ and Ni2+ complexes both bind to DNA via an...

COMPARISON OF PHYSICOCHEMICAL, THERMAL, PASTING AND MORPHOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF WEED RICE AND RICE STARCHES
A novel starch was isolated from weed rice crop and its starch properties were compared with rice starch. The starch properties studied were physicochemical, pasting, thermal and X-ray diffraction. The amylose content and swelling power (g/g) of weed rice starch was 13.7% and 19.8 g/g, respectively. Light transmittance (%) of starch paste from weed rice was observed higher as compared to rice star...

ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY, PHARMACOKINETICS AND MOLECULAR DOCKING OF PHYTOCHEMICALS FROM RICINUS COMMUNIS` LEAF EXTRACT
To evaluate the antibacterial activity, pharmacokinetics and molecular interaction of the compounds from Ricinus communis` leaf extract. Antibacterial activity was assessed by using the micro-dilution method. The chemical constituents of the methanolic leaf extract were assessed by using gas chromatography-mass spectrophotometry (GC-MS). The drug-like and toxicity properties of the phytocompounds ...

THE POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS OF PLANT-BASED ANTI-CANCER COMPOUNDS AND THEIR CHEMICAL DERIVATIVES
Cancer has evolved as a detrimental disorder alongside cardiovascular diseases. Plant-derived natural products have been the most successful source of potential anti-cancer drugs and for the isolation and characterization of novel compounds. Till now, only about 10% of the world’s biodiversity has been assessed for biological activity and numerous useful natural lead compounds are expected to be...

HEALTHCARE TRANSFORMATION THROUGH PERSONALIZED MEDICINE
Excessive heterogeneity in the phenotypic expression of drug treatment response and adverse drug reaction is resolute by a complex interaction of multiple hereditary variants and environmental aspects. The complex nature of treatment response greatly increases the need for personalized medicine. Drug metabolizing enzymes show monogenic genetic polymorphism and influence drug response. Cytochrome P...

DEVELOPMENT AND IN-VITRO EVALUATION OF LIQUISOLID COMPACTS OF LORNOXICAM
The present study is undertaken with an aim to improve the dissolution profile and availability of a poorly soluble drug, Lornoxicam, through the development of liquisolid tablets. Liquisolid compacts were prepared by employing PEG 400, Avicel PH 112, and Aerosil 200 as solvent, carrier and coating materials, respectively. The flow properties of the drug improved significantly after formulating it...

FORMULATION AND EVALUATION OF DORZOLAMIDE SPANLASTICS
Dorzolamide is commonly used to treat glaucoma, damage in the eye often caused by abnormally high pressure in the eye. It is one of the carbonic anhydrase inhibitors which is effective in decreasing intraocular pressure by decreasing the production of the aqueous humor. The main objective of the study was to entrap dorzolamide in a novel nanovesicular carrier system (spanlastics) to ensure sustain...
