SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERISATION OF IBUPROFEN, KETOPROFEN PRODRUG FOR TASTE MASKING USING β- CYCLODEXTRIN
AbstractThe Profens have indicated the gastrointestinal side effects due to the acidic moiety of the profen. The Profens are bitter in taste and it is omitted by mostly children. Therefore an attempt has been made to prepare the ester Prodrug using ethyl alcohol and butyl alcohol and its bitter taste is masked by using β-Cyclodextrin. The prepared prodrugs are characterised by melting point, UV and IR spectroscopy. The bitter taste intensity was evaluated using volunteers by comparison of test samples with standard solutions containing quinine at various concentrations.
