The present research work done with an objective of preparation and evaluation of floating tablets of Tofacitinib Citrate drug withHydroxy propylene methyl cellulose (HPMC), Polyox N-60K, Carbopol 934 P and Guar gum polymers. Floating tablets were based on effervescent approach using sodium bicarbonate a gas releasing agent. Direct compression method was used in present study for preparation of tablets. Effect of polymers was evaluated by studying drug release and floating time. In-vitro drug release profile indicates that sustained nature increased by increasing the concentration of polymer. The formulation containing Polyox N-60K and Carbopol 934 P in combination was optimized as it showed drug release up to 12hrs. Optimized formulation F18 was found stable during stability condition up to 1 month.
