It also has amebicidal and antiprotozoal properties.\u0000Aim: The purpose of the study was to formulate and evaluate metronidazole tablets formulated with polymers (PVP and PEG) and maize starch as disintegrant using moisture activated dry granulation (MADG).\u0000Method: Twenty-four (24) batches of metronidazole granules and tablets were prepared by moisture activated dry granulation.  Metronidazole (200 mg), lactose and gelatin (1, 2, 4, and 8 %) were mixed, followed by continuous mixing. Prior to compression, micro-crystalline cellulose, disintegrants and magnesium stearate were added. The dried granules were passed via 1.0 mm sieve after which they were labelled and stored in an air tight container. All other batches were also similarly prepared.\u0000Result: The result showed that the mean weight of the tablets ranged from 0.33±0.01 to 0.35±0.04 g. Tablet hardness ranged from 5.00±0.85 to 6.36±1.43. The results showed that batch 11 tablets had higher crushing strength than batch 24 with a significant difference. Table 2 shows the hardness test results and clearly indicates that the results of all the samples significantly differ from each other (p<0.05). The tablet friability test ranged from 0.21±0.17 for batch 24 and 0.60±0.16 for batch 11.  The formulated tablets showed average disintegration time ranges from 0.52±0.01 to 14.03±0.03. According to USP, the disintegration time must be in the range of 15 min for uncoated tablets, and 30 mins for film coated tablets.\u0000Conclusion: The study established that polyethylene glycol and polyvinyl pyrrolidone polymers had better dissolution profile than maize starch which has the best disintegration properties.\u0000                         \u0000Peer Review History: \u0000Received: 4 March 2023; Revised: 26 April; Accepted: 20 June 2023, Available online: 15 July 2023\u0000Academic Editor: Dr. Jennifer Audu-Peter, University of Jos, Nigeria, drambia44@gmail.com\u0000Received file:                             Reviewer's Comments:\u0000Average Peer review marks at initial stage: 5.0/10\u0000Average Peer review marks at publication stage: 7.0/10\u0000Reviewers:\u0000Dr. Julie Ann S.

To overcome these barriers, a form of immediate release dose has emerged like other oral dose forms. Forms of rapid drug release dispersal immediately after treatment with an improved degree of elimination. The basic method used in pill development is the use of superdisintegrants such as Kyron T-314 based on polymer bonded Polycarboxylic acid per USP/NF and has a K+ionic form. The Kyron T-316 is a relatively new fast disintegration system specifically for acid-containing drugs that promote dispersion and dissolution. Sodium starch glycolate (Primogel, Explotab), carboxymethyl cellulose (Croscarmellose) etc. The drug categories selected for immediate release are painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs such as Ibuprofen, Diclofenac sodium.

It can be primary (caused by an abnormality in the thyroid gland itself) or secondary/central. Between 3.8% and 4.6% of the general population has hypothyroidism. Hypothyroidism can also develop secondary to hypothalamic and pituitary disorders. These endocrine conditions occur primarily in patients who have undergone intracranial irradiation or surgical removal of a pituitary adenoma. Diagnosis of hypothyroidism is not easy because most of the symptoms, especially in mild cases, are nonspecific and are frequently attributed to other causes or to the aging process itself. Levothyroxine dosage selection, patient-appropriate serum thyrotropin (thyroid stimulating hormone) goal selection, and maintenance of that goal are the fundamental components of treating hypothyroidism. Although liothyronine (synthetic T3) has uniform potency, it is more expensive, harder to monitor with standard laboratory testing, and has","PeriodicalId":251442,"journal":{"name":"Mathews Journal of Pharmaceutical Science","volume":"319 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132573964","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its excessive consumption induces proven kidney and liver damage. As an indicator of the state of renal function, the serum level of urea, creatinine, and total protein are considered reliable markers. Thus, an increase in blood urea and serum creatinine followed by a decrease in total serum protein levels is indicative of kidney damage. During this study, the rats which received 1000 mg/Kg of paracetamol died on the fourth and fifth day of experimentation. The analyzes show an increase in the level of urea and serum creatinine of more than 150% and a decrease in total proteins of more than 150%. The rate thus goes from 0.288 g/l to 0.720 g/l for urea; from 7.307 mg/l to 18.267 mg/l for creatinine and from 57.168 g/l to 14.292 g/l for total proteins. This suggests nephrotoxicity in rats. In the rats which received 250 and 500 mg/Kg of paracetamol, the serum level of urea which was 0.288 g/l, goes to 0.452 g/l and 0.661 g/l respectively; an increase of 58.07% and 129.60%. The serum creatinine level is 7.307 mg/l in normal rats. This rate goes from 7.705 mg/l and 8.450 mg/l respectively. That is an increase of 5.16% and 15.64%. The total proteins in the normal rats had a level of 57.168 g/l, and the treated rats have a serum level of 54.715 g/l and 49.873 g/l respectively, at the end of the experiment. That is a decrease of 4.25% and 12.76% respectively. These parameters are characteristic of the progressive onset of acute renal failure (ARI or ARF).","PeriodicalId":251442,"journal":{"name":"Mathews Journal of Pharmaceutical Science","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117303495","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
