  • Title: Development and evaluation of matrix and two layered sustained release suppositories of theophylline.
    Author: Maity S, Sa B, Bandyopadhyay AK.
    Journal: Boll Chim Farm; 2001; 140(6):462-6. PubMed ID: 11822240.
    Abstract:
    Theophylline loaded conventional suppositories, sustained release matrix suppositories and sustained release two layered suppositories were prepared using polyethylene glycol 4000 and eudragit RS-100 and their characteristics were evaluated both in-vitro and in-vivo. In comparison to conventional suppositories, the release of the drug from sustained release matrix suppositories was gradual and extended over a period of time. On the other hand two layered suppositories produced an initial quick release followed by extended release of the drug. The in-vivo results were found to correlate with the in-vitro results.
