Abstract

Objective: Developing the formula and preparation process of  Verapamil hydrocloride pellet core.   Methods: The pellet core were prepared by extrusion spheronization method; Criteria including efficiency, physical apparence and pellet core characteristics, apparent density, flow rate, abrasion, moisture content, content of active ingredient, ratio of 0.8-1.2mm pellet, solubility were evaluated. Results: Verapamil hydrocloride pellet core have been formulated with ingredients: verapamil hydrocloride 40%, Avicel PH102 45%, Lactose 12.5%, Talc 2.5%, HPMC E6 0.2g and 50mL purified water. Conclusion: The prepared pellet core of Verapamil hydrochloride meet the standards of: apperance, apparent density, flow rate, abrasion, moiture content, ratio of 0.8-1.2mm pellet and solubility
