Resumen

Introduction: The current research work was carried out to develop a stable and effective suspension of stiripentol for treating epilepsy.

Method: FT-IR study was used to evaluate the compatibility between drug and excipient and the physical appearance of drug and excipient mixture was also examined after one month of stability study. The suspension was prepared by a mechanical stirrer and evaluated for viscosity, pH, sedimentation volume, zeta potential and in-vitro drug release studies. The optimized formulation was further evaluated for zeta potential and polydispersity index.

Results: FT-IR results confirmed the compatibility of drug and excipients. The physical appearance of the mixture was not altered during the accelerated storage conditions. Viscosity, pH and sedimentation volume of formulation ranged between 22.92 ±1.2 to 54.8 ± 2.1 cPs, 5.32 ± 0.04 to 6.01 ± 0.1 and 83.19 ± 0.9 % to 98.87 ± 1.2 % respectively. The zeta potential and polydispersity index of the optimized formulation was -52.1 mV and 0.198 respectively. These results were indicative of stable monodispersed suspension. The optimized formulation was stable at higher temperatures, humidity and in the presence of light, indicative of good shelf-life.

Conclusions: The study demonstrated that stiripentol oral suspension can be formulated as a stable and effective dosage form for the treatment of epilepsy.
