The overall objective of this article is to use an efficient approach to find a suitable tablet formulation for direct compression. By using traditional approaches to statistical experimental design in tablet formulation, the number of experiments quickly grows when many descriptive variables or many excipients are included. To facilitate the screening process, a multivariate design, which allows a systematical evaluation of a large number of excipients with a limited number of experiments, was implemented. Formulations with acceptable values for disintegration time and crushing strength were obtained with some of the formulations in the present study. The multivariate experimental design strategy yielded PLS models that will be used to identify a region of interest for the optimization. The strategy is general and can be applied in many different areas of pharmaceutical research and development.

Near-infrared hyperspectral imaging (NIR-HSI) integrated with expert systems can support the monitoring of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and provide effective quality control of tablet formulations. However, existing quality control methods usually test a limited number of variability sources affecting the final product. This study examines the potential of NIR-HSI (in the spectral range of 935.

Background: Swallowed topical corticosteroids (STC) are an effective first-line therapy for patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), both for induction and maintenance of remission. All interventional trials with STC used twice-daily dosing regimens. However, in other inflammatory gastrointestinal disorders, corticosteroids are given once daily (OD) with equal outcomes and improved compliance.

Aim: Development and optimization of raloxifene hydrochloride loaded lipid nanocapsule hydrogel for transdermal delivery.
Method: A 3 Box-Behnken Design and numerical optimization was performed to obtain the optimized formulation. Subsequently, the optimized raloxifene hydrochloride loaded lipid nanocapsule was developed using phase inversion temperature and characterized for physicochemical properties.

Reddy and Reddy (2014) discuss the optimal timing for lithium levels in patients taking once-daily extended-release lithium formulations. They argue for blood sampling 24 h after the previous dose rather than the standard 12 h. I interpret the data quite differently.

Summary: Oral levothyroxine (LT4) is prescribed worldwide for hypothyroidism. Bariatric surgery for patients with obesity has shown a substantial, long-term weight loss and considerable improvement of obesity-related diseases. LT4 malabsorption represents a significant cause of refractory hypothyroidism, well known after malabsorptive bariatric surgery such as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass.
