Formulation, Development and Evaluation of Bilayer Floating Tablets of Antihypertensive Drug Bosentan

Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a major public health concern around the world because of its large contribution to the global health burden and its function as a major risk factor for a variety of disease processes. Bosentan SR Floating Bilayer Tablets were made with HPMC K4M, HPMC E-15, and HPMC E-15 alone (80%) and in combination with varying percentages of polymer (20&60 percent, 40&40 percent, and 60&20 percent ). The hydrophilic polymer HPMC is used to make three different formulations (M4, M8, and M12) of floating Bosentan SR tablets, each with a viscosity grade of 80 percent. M12 formulation was shown to be suitable for SR tablet formulation. From the M12 formulation. It's based on the M12 formula. The fraction of high viscosity polymer can be lowered by adding low viscosity polymer, as demonstrated in the C3 formulation. It was clear from the dissolution profile of formulation C3 that by mixing the low and high viscosity polymers, the drug release from the formulation may be improved as compared to manufacturing M12 high viscosity polymer alone. According to the findings of this investigation, as floating duration increases, the release rate drops. As a result, it's appropriate for long-term formulation.
