Formulation and development of famciclovir sustained release tablets using various retarding polymers
Sustained release tablets of Famciclovir were formulated by using HPMC K15M and Ethyl cellulose. The tablets were evaluated for Preformulating studies like angle of repose, bulk density, compressibility index and physical characteristics like hardness, weight variation, friability and drug content. In-vitro release of drug was performed in 0.1 N HCL and phosphate buffer pH 6.8 for twelve hours. All the physical characters of the fabricated tablet were within acceptable limits.
