3. Sustained drug delivery system
Sustained release are drug delivery system that achieve slow
release of drug over an extended period of time after
administration of single dose.
Controlled drug delivery system
Drug delivery System in which maintain constant level of drug
in blood and tissue for extended period of time.

5. Advantages SR and CRDDS
Improve absorption, utilization and there by enhancing
bioavailability.
Decreased local and systemic side effects reduced
gastrointestinal irritation.
Reduction in dosing frequency.
Better patient acceptance and compliance.
Reduced fluctuations in circulating drug levels.
Reduction in the health care cost.
Bioavailability of certain drugs can be increased.
5
6. Disadvantages of SR and CRDDS
Dose dumping.
Dose adjustment is difficult.
Patient education is required for successful therapy.
Patient need to substantial additional information as to the
proper used sustained release product.
Poor IVIVC.
Higher cost of single unit as compared to cost of single
conventional unit.
Stability problems.

Delayed release
system
11. 1) Continuous release system
These systems release the drug continuously for prolonged period
of time along the entire length of GIT with normal transit time.
Different systems under this class are-
a) Dissolution controlled release system
b) Diffusion controlled release system
c) Dissolution and diffusion controlled release System
d) Ion exchange drug resin complexes
e) Slow dissolving salts and complexes
f) pH-dependent formulation
g) Osmotic pressure controlled release system
h) Hydrodynamic pressure controlled release system

12
13. a) Dissolution controlled release system
These system are most commonly employed in the production of
enteric dosage forms. Drug present in the system having high
aqueous solubility and dissolution rate.
Matrix system
Matrix system are also called as monoliths since the drug is
homogenously dispersed throughout a rate-controlling medium.
e.g. Bees wax, carnauba wax,
hydrogenated castor oil.
13
14. Reservoir system
The drug particle are coated or
encapsulated by one of the several
microencapsulation Techniques
with slowly dissolving materials like
Cellulose, PEG, polymethacrylates, waxes, etc.
14
15. b) Diffusion controlled release system
Movement of drug molecules from a region of a higher
concentration to one of lower concentration.
Matrix system
The drug is dispersed in an insoluble
matrix of rigid nonswellable hydrophobic
materials or swellable hydrophilic
substances.
Reservoir system
These system are hollow containing
an inner core of drug surrounded
in a water insoluble polymer membrane.
15
16. c) Dissolution and diffusion controlled release
system Insoluble membrane
Pore created by
dissolution of soluble
fraction of membrane
Entry of dissolution fluid
Drug diffusion
d) Ion exchange resin-drug complexes
Is based on preparation of totally insoluble ionic material
Resins are insoluble in acidic and alkaline media they contain
ionizable groups which can be exchanged for drug molecules.

+ - A

+ HOOC – B RNH3
+ -OOC-B + H2O
16
17. e) Slowly dissolving salts and complexes
Salt or complexes of drug which are slowly soluble in the GI
Fluid can be used for controlled release of the drug.
e.g. Penicillin G has been complexed with N,N- dibenzyl
ethylene diamine to give benzathine penicillin G.
d) Osmotic pressure controlled release system
17
18. e) Hydrodynamic pressure controlled release system
Such system are designed to eliminate the influence of GI pH
on dissolution and absorption of drugs by formulating then
with sufficient amount of buffering agents s.a. salts of
phosphoric, citric, or tartaric acids. That adjust the pH to
desired value as the dosage form passes along the GIT and
permit drug dissolution and release at a constant rate
independent of GI pH.
f) pH-dependent formulations

Collapsible drug reservoir
Annular opening
Swellable hydrophilic
polymer
19. 2) Delayed transit and continuous release system
These systems are designed to prolong release of drug with
increased residence time in GIT. Such dosage forms are
designed to remain in the stomach.
Therefore the drug presented in such systems should be
stable at gastric pH.
This class includes following systems
a) Altered density system
b) Mucoadhesive or Bioadhesive system
c) Size based system
19
20. a) Altered density system
If the residence time of drug in the stomach or intestine is prolonged
in some way, the frequency of dosing can be further reduced.
Altering the density of drug particle, use of mucoadhesive polymers
and altering the size of the dosage form.
i. High density pellets
ii. Low density pellets
b) Mucoadhesive system
A mucoadhesive or bioadhesive polymer s.a. Cross-linked polyacrylic
acid, when incorpated in a tablet , allow it to adhere to the gastric
mucosa or epithelium.
c) Size-Based system
The diameter of tablet always greater than 2cm which can not Pass
through pylorus and can't goes in to intestine. Using high grade
polymer like HPMC K200 having high swelling property. 20
21. 3) Delayed release system
These systems are fabricated to release the drug only at specific
site in the GIT.
The drugs those are-
Destroyed in stomach or by intestinal enzymes.
Known to cause gastric irritation
Absorbed from specific site in intestine are formulated in
such systems.
The two types of delayed release systems are
a) Intestinal release system
b) Colonic release system
21
22. a) Intestinal release system
A drug may be enteric coated for intestinal release for Several
known reason s.a. to prevent gastric irritation, destabilization in
gastric pH.
b) Colonic release system
Drug are poorly absorbed through colon but may be delivered
to such a site for two reason-
Local action as in the treatment of ulcerative colitis
Systemic absorption of protein and peptide drug like insulin and
vasopressin.

28. Conclusion
The Sustained release drug delivery system is very helpful in
increasing the efficiency of the dose, safety of dose as well
as the patient compliance.
The controlled release drug delivery system aims to release
the drug at the desired rate over extended period of time to
maintain the therapeutic level in blood.
