Objective:The aim of present study was to formulate natural polymer Acacia nilotica gum based Famotidine microsphere which is improve its therapeutic efficacy, patient compliance and reduce the dosing frequency and adverse effects.
Methods: Different batches of microspheres were prepared by ionotropic gelation technique. The physicochemical parameters like drug content, particle size measurement, swelling index and percentage yield as well as in vitro drug release were determined using USP Type 1 apparatus. SEM study was done for the optimized microspheres.
Result: Eighteen batches of microspheres were prepared by natural polymer Acacia nilotica gum and drug loaded Famotidine. All prepared batches of microspheres evaluated different parameters like particle size is having 846.21 to 989.04µm, F5 shows highest particle size. Micromeritics properties that are bulk density tapped density, carr, s index, hausner ratio, angle of repose and found excellent flow and packaging properties. Percentage yield of microsphere has well. Formulation F1 shows maximum % yield of microspheres. Drug content % was found 98% F1 batch. Swelling % formulation F5 shows maximum swelling property. Drug and polymer is compatible to each other. Percent release of drug is 98% in 8 hours.
Conclusion: This study final from the obtained results, it could be concluded that Famotidine natural polymer microspheres can be formulated as controlled and sustained release of drug for several hours.
