Abstract

Objective: The objective of the proposed work was to investigate the method for the efficient encapsulation of highly water soluble venlafaxine hydrochloride into poly-e-caprolactone microspheres by water-in-oil-in-oil and water-in-oil-in water double emulsification technique and comparison for its controlled release properties. Method: The Venlafaxine loaded microspheres are prepared by water-in-oil-in-oil (w/o/w) and water-in-oil-in water (w/o/o) double emulsification technique. The compatibility study of drug with polymer was performed by Differential scanning caloriemetry (DSC) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The prepared microspheres are studied for their particle size, drug entrapment efficiency. The microspheres are characterised by SEM and in-vitro release of Venlafaxine was studied in phosphate buffer pH 1.2 for 12 hours and further studied for kinetic modeling. Result: The precentage yield of Venlafaxine loaded microspheres of all the formulations were found better by w/o/w method(92.21% for F 3). The particle size was found in a range of 130-135 μm and 120-125 μm for both W/O/W and W/O/O formulations. The entrapment efficiency was found in F 5 formulation prepared by W/O/O method. While the in-vitro release of Venlafaxine showed a drug release below 60% after 12 h of study whereas the marketed formulation released above 90% within 6 h and the mechanism was found to be fickian type. Conclusion: The prepared poly-ε-caprolactone microsphere is capable of delivering Venlafaxine HCl over prolonged periods, making it a potential candidate for controlled drug delivery.
