Abstract

Canagliflozin an analogue of sodium -glucose co -transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors . reduces the release of many neurotransmitters, including glutamate, and noradrenaline. It is used for the treatment of diabeties. The present research work aims to ensure a high drug absorption by retarding the advancement of canagliflozin formulation through the gastrointestinal tract. The work aims to design a controlled release canagliflozin formulation which is administered as liquid and further gels in the stomach and floats in gastric juice. Materials and Methods: In situ gelling formulations were prepared using sodium alginate, calcium carbonate, sodium Bicarbonate, hydroxyl propyl methylcellulose (HPMC) E-50M, and sodium bicarbonate. The prepared formulations were evaluated for solution viscosity, drug content, in vitro gelling studies, gel strength, and in vitro drug release. Results: The formulation containing 3% w/v sodium alginate and 0.6% w/v HPMC E-50 were considered optimum since it showed minimum floating lag time (65±0.24s), optimum viscosity (181 cps). The optimized formulation follows first ordering Higuchi kinetic model with regression value 0.9964 representing diffusion mechanism of drug release. Conclusion: Floating in situ gelling system of canagliflozin can be formulated using sodium alginate as a gelling polymer and calcium carbonate as a complexing agent to control the drug release for about 8 hrs for the treatment of diabeties.
