| Abstract | The objective of this study was to develop oral isoniazid and rifampicin microspheres in order to improve rifampicin stability by avoiding its direct contact with INH and acidic environmental of stomach. In the study, isoniazid microspheres were prepared by w/o/w emulsion solvent diffusion evaporation method using ethylcellulose as wall material. Rifampicin microspheres were prepared by o/o emulsion solvent diffusion evaporation method using Eudragit?L 100-55 as polymer. Formulation variables which effect physical characteristic and microsphere stability were investigated. Result from differential scanning calorimetry showed that isoniazid and rifampicin when kept as drug powder at 37?C and 50?C for 2 weeks were unstable while drug encapsulated in microspheres remained unchange. In vitro drug release showed a faster dissolution rate of rifampicin microspheres in phosphate buffer pH 6.8 than in 0.1 N HCl which dued to the solubility of Eudragit?L 100-55 in the medium. In conclusion, the combined isoniazid and rifampicin microspheres formulation exhibited a potential to improve the rifampicin stability for oral application. |
