Spectroscopic Characterization of in Vitro Interactions of Cetirizine and NSAIDS Hina Shamshad1*, M Saeed Arayne1 and Najma Sultana2 Shamshad et al. Journal of Analytical Science and Technology 2014, 5:22 http://www.jast-journal.com/content/5/1/22 RESEARCH Open Access Spectroscopic characterization of in vitro interactions of cetirizine and NSAIDS Hina Shamshad1*, M Saeed Arayne1 and Najma Sultana2 Abstract Background: Cetirizine (anti-allergy agent) and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs; anti-inflammatory agents) are co-administered drugs. Cetirizine, a P-glycopretein substrate may be affected by the use of NSAIDs. In the present work, quantification of cetirizine in the presence of commonly co-administered NSAIDs such as diclofenac sodium, ibuprofen, flurbiprofen, tiaprofenac acid, meloxicam and mefenamic acid were studied using the RP-HPLC technique. Methods: A high-throughput HPLC method for the analysis of cetirizine was developed, validated in the presence of NSAIDs and was further used to study the interactions of cetirizine in the presence of NSAIDs at four different pH levels. Purospher Star, C18 column (5 μm, 25 cm × 0.46 cm) with a mobile phase of methanol/water (90:10 v/v, pH adjusted to 3.5) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min and a wavelength of 240 nm was used. Results: The synthesis of cetirizine in the presence of NSAIDs was carried out, and complexes were characterized using infrared (IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques. The method was found to be applicable in serum and was found useful for therapeutic purposes. The differences in availabilities of cetirizine with NSAIDs at three pH levels clearly indicated the interactions of afore mentioned drugs. Conclusions: The findings suggested further studies on the co-administration of these two drugs simultaneously in order to know the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of the drugs. It is highly recommended to have a suitable time lapse between the oral uses of these drugs.

  • Enhancement of Dissolution and Oral Bioavailability of Gliquidone with Hydroxy Propyl-Β-Cyclodextrin
    ORIGINAL ARTICLES Pharmacology Division, Indian Institute of Chemical Technology, Hyderabad, India Enhancement of dissolution and oral bioavailability of gliquidone with hydroxy propyl-b-cyclodextrin S. Sridevi, A. S. Chauhan, K. B. Chalasani, A. K. Jain, P. V. Diwan Received November 15, 2002, accepted May 5, 2003 Dr. Prakash V. Diwan, Pharmacology Division, Indian Institute of Chemical Technology, Hyderabad – 500 007 A.P., India [email protected] Pharmazie 58: 807–810 (2003) The virtual insolubility of gliquidone in water results in poor wettability and dissolution characteristics, which may lead to a variation in bioavailability. To improve these characteristics of gliquidone, binary systems with hydroxypropyl-b-cyclodextrin (HP-b-CD) were prepared by classical methods such as physical mixing, kneading, co-evaporation and co-lyophilization. The solid state interaction between the drug and HP-b-CD was assessed by evaluating the binary systems with X-ray diffraction, differen- tial scanning calorimetry and IR- spectroscopy. The results establish the molecular encapsulation and amorphization of gliquidone. The phase solubility profile of gliquidone in aqueous HP-b-CD vehicle À1 resulted in an AL type curve with a stability constant of 1625 M . The dissolution rate of binary sys- tems was greater than that of pure drug and was significantly higher in the case of co-lyophilized and co-evaporated systems. Upon oral administration, [AUC]0-a was significantly higher in case of co-lyo- philized (2 times) and co-evaporated systems (1.5 times) compared to pure drug suspension while other binary systems showed only a marginal improvement. The study ascertained the utility of HP-b- CD in enhancing the oral bioavailability of gliquidone, and points towards a strong influence of the preparation method on the physicochemical properties.

  • Coordinate Regulation of Glucose Transporter Function, Number, and Gene Expression by Insulin and Sulfonylureas in L6 Rat Skeletal Muscle Cells
    Coordinate regulation of glucose transporter function, number, and gene expression by insulin and sulfonylureas in L6 rat skeletal muscle cells. P H Wang, … , R C Nayak, R J Smith J Clin Invest. 1989;84(1):62-67. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI114170. Research Article The extrapancreatic actions of sulfonylureas on the glucose transport system were studied in the L6 line of cultured rat skeletal muscle cells. Insulin (10(-7) M) increased 2-deoxyglucose uptake in differentiated L6 myotubes by 30-40% after 8 h of incubation. The sulfonylurea tolazamide (0.6 mg/ml, 22 h) had no effect on glucose uptake in the absence of insulin, but increased insulin-stimulated 2-deoxyglucose uptake twofold. The total cellular content of glucose transporters was assessed with a monoclonal anti-transporter antibody by a solid-phase ELISA method. Insulin (8 h) increased the quantity of glucose transporters, with a maximal twofold increase at 10(-7) M and a dose-response curve similar to that for insulin stimulation of glucose uptake. In spite of its lack of effect on glucose uptake, tolazamide alone (0.6 mg/ml) increased the cellular content of transporters by 70%. The effects of insulin and tolazamide on transporter gene expression were studied with probes derived from Hep G2 glucose transporter cDNA. Insulin increased the transporter mRNA level 1.7- fold, tolazamide increased it 1.5-fold, and the combination of insulin and tolazamide increased transporter mRNA 3-fold. It is concluded that sulfonylureas, together with insulin, enhance glucose uptake in L6 skeletal muscle cells by increasing the number of functioning glucose transport molecules.

  • Sulfonyl Ureas for Antidiabetic Therapy, an Overview for Glipizide
    International Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences ISSN- 0975-1491 Vol 2, Suppl 2, 2010 Review Article SULFONYL UREAS FOR ANTIDIABETIC THERAPY, AN OVERVIEW FOR GLIPIZIDE SHAMMI GOYAL1*, JITENDRA KUMAR RAI¹, R.K.NARANG¹, RAJESH K.S¹ 1 Nanotechnology Research Centre, Indo Soviet Friendship College of Pharmacy, Moga­142001, Punjab, India Email: [email protected] Received: 07 Jan 2010, Revised and Accepted: 24 Jan 2010 ABSTRACT Glipizide is a "second generation" sulfonylurea, an oral hypoglycemic agent for the management of non‐insulin dependent diabetes mellitus. Oral delivery of glipizide shows bioavailability problems and causes hypoglycemia with gastric disturbances. To overcome these problems, controlled release formulations as sustained release and controlled release tablets are available. Solubility of glipizide increases with increase in pH. Like any other sulfonylurea, glipizide appears to act principally by stimulating the insulin secretion from pancreatic beta‐cells. Glipizide overdose symptoms include low blood sugar. Keywords: Antidiabetic, Sulfonyl urea, Glipizide INTRODUCTION presumed that this effect is related to an alteration of the tissue plasma membrane, resulting in an increased number of insulin Glipizide is one of the most commonly prescribed drugs for receptors7. Data also suggest that glipizide improves glucose treatment of type II diabetes. It is an oral hypoglycemic drug from utilization not only by promoting pancreatic insulin release but also sulfonylurea group. It is active at very low doses, a characteristic by enhancing extra‐pancreatic availability of insulin and/or the feature of second generation sulfonylureas.

    Different Approaches Toward The Enhancement Of Drug Solubility And Or Dissolution Rate. by Princy Ann Abraham A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Chemistry and Chemical Biology written under the direction of Professor Jing Li and approved by: ________________________ ________________________ ________________________ ________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey October, 2011 © 2011 Princy Ann Abraham ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Different Approaches Toward The Enhancement Of Drug Solubility And/Or Dissolution Rate. By: Princy Ann Abraham Dissertation Director: Professor Jing Li Nontraditional methods such as supercritical antisolvent processing and ultrasonic processor rely on physical alterations to enhance drug solubility and dissolution rate. They are advantageous because of their application to a wide variety of drugs and relatively short processing time. Our works show reduced particle size and complexation with these techniques results in the modification of dissolution rate and or solubility. Crystalline form of a drug is preferable because most drugs occur in this form and tend to be stable at this condition. Towards this effort new nanosized crystalline coordination drug polymers are synthesized to enhance drug solubility or dissolution rate. γ-Indomethacin (IMC) is successfully processed with the supercritical antisolvent (SAS) technique. Pure, acicular (needle-like) particles of the α-polymorph are consistently obtained with SAS as the solvent, concentration, temperature and pressures are varied. Controlled changes in process parameters yield significant changes in particle size. Enhanced dissolution profiles are observed with IMC processed with SAS as opposed to the unprocessed IMC.
