Bilayer Tablet: Novel Technology Use in Extended Release Drug Delivery System
Abstract
Bilayer tablet is a successful technology of controlled release formulation or extended release formulation to provide successful drug delivery. The name of this development is clear that the tablets have been consisting of two layers, these are immediate release layer (IR) and another is extended release layer (ER). In this era it is very useful in many developing countries as a combination therapy for various disease treatment purposes. Bilayer tablet are needs to separate incompatible active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) by physical separation. In this formulation IR and ER both layers are present and it form extended release layer (ER). This types of formulations helps to maintain plasma level concentration in the body. So, it is a very useful and successful technology in novel drug delivery system.
