Green polymer altered in-situ gel oral liquid sustainable release preparation of vildagliptin suitable for dysphagic diabetic patients : assessment in-vitro & in-vivo

PURPOSE: This work aimed to fabricate alginate based in-situ gelling matrix of vildagliptin improved by calcium and carboxy methyl cellulose (CMC) for appropriate adjustment of the onset and duration of action. This easy-to-swallow thickened liquid preparation aimed to improve compliance for dysphagic or elderly diabetic patients.

METHODS: Vildagliptin dispersions containing alginate were fabricated in the presence or absence of calcium chloride to assess the effect of calcium ion, then a matrix containing 1.5% w/v of sodium alginate with calcium was further examined after the addition of CMC with different concentrations ranging from 0.1% to 0.3%. The viscosity, gelling forming property, Differential scanning calorimetry, and in-vitro drug release were assessed before monitoring the hypoglycemic effect of the selected formulation.

RESULTS: In-situ gel matrixes were fabricated at gastric pH with and without calcium ions. The best formula concerning viscosity and the gel-forming property was achieved with higher CMC concentrations, which in turn decreased the rate of vildagliptin release in stimulated gastric pH. In-vivo results confirmed the extended hypoglycemic effect of the vildagliptin in-situ gelling matrix compared to the vildagliptin aqueous solution.

CONCLUSION: This study represents a green polymeric-based in-situ gel as a liquid oral retarded release preparation intended for reducing dose frequency, easier administration of vildagliptin, and improving compliance in geriatric and dysphagic diabetic patients.
