In vitro determination of aceclofenac Mouth Dissolving Tablets.

In the present study, Mouth Dissolving Tablets (MDTs) of aceclofenac were formulated by direct compression technique. Sodium starch glycolate and crospovidone were employed as superdisintegrants in various concentrations like 2%, 3% and 4% w/w. All prepared tablets were evaluated for weight variation, hardness, drug content, friability, disintegration time, in vitro wetting time and percent drug release. MDTs containing 4% w/w concentration of crospovidone give best results and is therefore considered as the best formula. It has shown 30 s disintegration time, 25 s wetting time and 79.34% in vitro release of drug in 25 min.
