Abstract: |
In the present study an attempt was made to prepare Bilayer tablets of Amlodipine besylate (IR) and Metoprolol succinate(ER) by direct compression technique with excipients like MCC 102, SSG, aerosil & magnesium stearate for Amlodipine release layer and starch 1500, HPMC K15M, HPMC K4M, aerosil & sodium stearyl fumarate for Metoprolol release layer. Prepared bilayered tablets were evaluated for hardness, friability, weight variation, drug content uniformity, drug-polymer interaction, in vitro drug release and short-term stability studies. Among the various formulations prepared, formulation A3 with SSG (5%), formulation M8 (with 55% of HPMC K15M and 10% of HPMC K4M) showed comparatively good release which complies the dissolution requirements as per USP. |
