Abstract
The aim of the present investigation was to prepare an orodispersible tablet of Azelnidipine using superdisintegrant agents like croscarmellose sodium by direct compression method. These formulated tablets were evaluated for drug content, weight variation, friability, hardness, solubility study also, and drug excipient compatibility study. Based on data obtained from pre-compression and post-compression evaluation of batches as well as the factorial design model study f7 batch was selected as the optimized batch. Based on the result obtained from the dissolution profile study it was concluded that the formula responsible for Azelnidipine tablets gives the fastest disintegration as well as absorption of the drug as compared to the conventional marketed tablet dosage form.
