Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2012, Vol 3, Issue 4

Abstract

Oral controlled release delivery systems are programmed to deliver the drug in predictable time frame that will increase the efficacy and minimize the adverse effects and increase the bioavailability of drugs. Oral route is considered mostnatural, uncomplicated, convenient and safe due to its ease of administration, patient acceptance, and cost-effective manufacturing process.Floating Drug delivery system are designed to prolong the gastric residence time after oral administration, at particular site and controlling the release of drug especially useful for achieving controlled plasma level a swell as improving bioavailability Several approaches are currently being used to prolong the GRT, including floating drug delivery systems (FDDS), also known as hydrodynamically balanced systems (HBS), swelling and expanding systems, high-density systems, and other delayed gastric emptying devices.
