  • Enteric coating -II a) Polyethylene glycol 400 was dispersed in the mixture of acetone and water. b) Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate 55 was added to dispersion of V (a). c) Enteric-coated pellets of IV (e) were loaded in fluid bed processor and coated with dispersion of V (b), subsequently, pellets were dried and passed through suitable size mesh. Stage VI:
  • Tablet formation a) Microcrystalline cellulose, sodium stearyl fumarate, polyethylene glycol 6000 and crospovidone XL were passed through suitable size mesh and mixed with enteric-coated pellets of V(c) in a conta blender for 15 minutes. b) Blend of VI (a) was compressed into tablets of suitable dimensions using tableting machine.
  • Stage VII Film coating a) Opadry pink was dispersed in purified water under stirring to get a homogenous dispersion. b) Compressed tablets of VI (b) were film coated in coating pan.
  • Drug layering a) Hydroxypropyl cellulose, Povidone K30 and the amorphous esomepraozle magnesium were dispersed in sufficient quantity of water and isopropyl alcohol. b) Sugar spheres (NPS) (inert core) were loaded in fluid bed processor and coated with dispersion of stage I (a). c) Drug layered pellets were dried and passed through suitable size mesh.
  • NPS Sugar spheres
  • Stage II Intermediate coating: a) Hydroxyethyl cellulose and talc were suspended in sufficient quantity of purified water, and passed through suitable size mesh. b) Drug coated pellets of I (c) were coated with suspension of II (a) in fluid bed processor. c) Intermediate-coated pellets were dried and passed through suitable size mesh.
  • Stage III Enteric coating-I: a) Triethyl citrate, and talc were dispersed in suitable quantity of purified water. b) Dispersion of HI (a) was added to dispersion of Eudragit L30 D55 under constant stirring. c) Subcoated pellets of II (c) were loaded into fluid bed processor and coated with dispersion of III (b). d) Enteric-coated pellets were dried and passed through suitable size mesh.
  • Stage IV Enteric coating -II: a) Triethyl citrate and talc was dispersed in the mixture of acetone and water. b) Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose phthalate 55 was added to dispersion of IV
  • Tablet formation a) Microcrystalline cellulose, sodium stearyl fumarate and crospovidone XL were passed through suitable size mesh and mixed with enteric-coated pellets of IV(c) in a conta blender for 15 minutes. b) Blend of V (a) was compressed into tablets of suitable dimensions using tableting machine.
  • compositions of the invention and reference example 1 were subjected to accelerated stability testing at 40°C ⁇ 2°C, 75% ⁇ 5%RH in closed containers (HDPE Bottles) for 1 to 3 months, and in open petridishes for 7 to 14 days. The results were analyzed for the total Related Substances. Results are set out in table 5 below: (a) Stability Testing in closed container (HDPE Bottles)
  • composition of invention has unexpectedly reduced the formation of total related substances as compared with composition of reference.
  • Experimental data profoundly testify to the fact that magnesium oxide in intermediate layer along with icing sugar with starch is critical for stabilizing the composition of the invention.
  • composition of the invention retains the amorphous nature of the esomeprazole after exposure to stringent stability testing conditions.
  • Acid resistance test for the multiple unit tablets and enteric coated of the composition of the present invention was carried out and the results were compared with data of omeprazole magnesium multiple unit tablet as reported in Ex. 3 of EP 1078628 assigned to Astra Zeneca UK.
