Studies on flufenamic acid capsules and tablets.
In this study, the in vitro dissolution rate of flufenamic acid was investigated in two different dosage forms, tablets and capsules, and the influence of the commonly used additives (lactose, corn starch, magnesium stearate, sodium lauryl sulphate). Using lactose, starch, Avicel PH 101, and methyl cellulose as additives, direct compression and wet granulation techniques were tried for preparing flufenamic acid tablets. The rotating basket method of U.S.P. XIX was used for determination of release rate. The findings were compared to the dissolution rate results of the commercial flufenamic acid capsules.
