  • Title: Influence of Eudragit NE 30 D blended with Eudragit L 30 D-55 on the release of phenylpropanolamine hydrochloride from coated pellets.

    Abstract:
    The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of Eudragit NE 30 D blended with Eudragit L 30 D-55 on the release of phenylpropanolamine hydrochloride (PPA x HCl) from coated pellets. The miscibility of Eudragit NE 30 D/L 30 D-55 blends at different ratios was studied by using differential scanning calorimetry. The release of PPA x HCl from pellets coated with Eudragit NE 30 D alone and a Eudragit NE 30 D/L 30 D-55 blend, when stored at 40 degrees C and 60 degrees C, was determined by UV spectroscopy. Eudragit NE 30 D and Eudragit L 30 D-55 were miscible in ratios greater than 4:1. The curing time that was required to reach an equilibrium state decreased with the addition of Eudragit L 30 D-55. The presence of Eudragit L 30 D-55 also produced a film coating that was less tacky, and a dispersion of Eudragit NE 30 D containing Eudragit L 30 D-55 (5:1) was shown to prevent agglomeration of the pellets during coating and storage.
