Abstract

Objective: The present work based on formulation of Ramipril tablets containing solid dispersion employing selective polymers. The objective of the preparation is to prepare the solid dispersion of the Ramipril, which has more responsive value in terms of the dissolution rate.


Method: Solid dispersion complex was prepared with two different carriers PEG 6000 and PVP K30. Nine formulations were developed and each formulation were subjected to pre compression and post compression parameters.


Result and Discussion:  Pre-compression and post compression parameters were studied which had shown good flow property and compiled the standard data. In-vitro dissolution studies shows more than 90 % drug release in phosphate buffer pH 6.8 in 30 min. Out of all formulation F4 showed 92.55±0.67 % drug release with in 30min which was the best result rest of the formulation.


Conclusion: Ramipril tablets were successfully prepared and evaluated. F4 formulation shows the greater dissolution rate in phosphate buffer pH 6.8 as compared to other formulations. When compared with marketed formulation it also shows better results. Therefore, Ramipril solid dispersion tablets enhanced the dissolution rate and can be more efficacious for improving oral bioavailability of Ramipril.
