FORMULATION OF CEFUROXIME AXETIL MICROPARTICLES FOR DRY ORAL SUSPENSION
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: To prepare taste-masked cefuroxime acetil (CFA) microparticles and a taste-masked dry oral suspension containing 150 mg CFA on the laboratory scale. Methods: Microparticles containing CFA were prepared by melting method with stearic acid and other suitable excipients; the dry oral suspension containing CFA was prepared from CFA microparticles and excipients of the suspension. Results: CFA microparticles and dry oral suspension reduced the concentration of CFA released in the dispersion medium (reduced bitterness) and met the dissolution requirement according to USP 43-NF 38
