[The study on prescription and preparation of the sustained-released capsule of gegen isoflavones].
OBJECTIVE
To study the preparation of the sustained-released capsule of Gegen isoflavones (SRCGI) and choose the best prescription.


METHODS
EC and HPMC were used as sustained-released excipients. Uniform layout test was employed to design the formulation.


RESULTS
The best prescription release drug Q0.5h = 50% - 53%, to 100% at 12h and its dissolution behavior belongs to Higuchi Kinetics, Q = 17.19t1/2 +/- 38.75, r = 0.9959.


CONCLUSIONS
SRCGI obtained desirable effect of drug release.
