Abstract:
Lyme disease (Lyme borreliosis) is an infectious disease caused by at least three species of bacteria belonging to the genus Borrelia. Borrelia burgdorferi sensu strictois the main cause of Lyme disease in North America, whereas Borrelia afzelii and Borrelia garinii cause most European cases. The disease is named after the towns of Lyme and Old Lyme, Connecticut, US, where a number of cases were identified in 1975. Although it was known that Lyme disease was a tick-borne disease as far back as 1978, the cause of the disease remained a mystery until 1981, when B. burgdorferi was identified by Willy Burgdorfer.

Lyme disease is the most common tick-borne disease in the Northern Hemisphere. Borrelia is transmitted to humans by the bite of infected ticks belonging to a few species of the genus Ixodes ("hard ticks"). Early symptoms may include fever, headache, fatigue, depression, and a characteristic circular skin rash called erythema migrans (EM). Left untreated, later symptoms may involve the joints, heart, and central nervous system. In most cases, the infection and its symptoms are eliminated by antibiotics, especially if the illness is treated early. Delayed or inadequate treatment can lead to more serious symptoms, which can be disabling and difficult to treat.

Abstract:
Venlafaxine HCl is an anti depressent drug which is used in depreesion. It is available both as immediate release tablet as well as modified release product. The innovator modified release product available in international market is Effexor ER tablets. Effexor ER is based on erosion matrix system. The core tablet is coated with Ethyl Cellulose using PVP as a core former. This coating is solvent based coating. The aim of  present investigation was to prepare a ER tablet of Venlafaxine HCl  with similar dissolution profile matching to  Effexor ER  using  swelling  matrix system. The platform developed for this product was compression coating.  An immediate release  core tablet of 100mg  was prepared and it was compression coated using HPMC  matrix system. HPMC of three viscosity grades was selected and the concentration and the   viscosity grade were optimised. Similarity factor ( F2 values) with innovator product were calculated for in vitro dissolution profile.  The  rank order correlation for similarity factor was as under HPMC K15M 15% > HPMC K100M 15% > HPMC k15M 35% > HPMC k100M 35% > HPMCK 4M 15% > HPMC k45 45%. In this review, current and recent developments of venlafaxine hydrochloride extended release products are discussed.
