ABSTRACT
The objective of the study was to develop matrix tablets of oral controlled release tablets of oxybutynin. In the present study oxybutynin tablets were successfully developed using direct compression method. To achieve better patient compliance and for prolonged release of drug from the dosage form. Formulation development of diffusion based tablets of oxybutynin using different types of polymers such as Ethyl cellulose, Chitosan, and Locust bean gum and selection of the best formulation among them. Flow properties Angle of repose, Loose bulk density ,tapped density and also Carr’s index was determined for all the formulations which showed good flow property. The thickness found uniform, ,hardness and friability values of all the formulations tablets prepared by direct compression method were within the limits and found to be mechanically stable .In vitro dissolution results showed that% of drug release was prolonged in formulation F5 that is up to 12hrs when compared to other formulations .This indicates the drug released from the formulation F5 was effective up to 12 hours . Oxybutynin is used to treat certain bladder and urinary conditions Oxybutynin belongs to a class of drugs known as antispasmodics. Oxybutynin is indicated for the symptomatic treatment of overactive bladder, which causes urge urinary incontinence and frequency, and urgency. Oxybutynin may also be used for children aged 6 and above for the symptomatic management of detrusor muscle overactivity which has been found to be related to a neurological condition.
