Formulation and Evaluation of Mucoadhesive Microsphere drug delivery system of Losartan Potassium

Abstract

Chitosan Mucoadhesive microspheres as gastro retentive dosage forms precisely control the release rate of target drug to a specific site and facilitate an enormous impact on health care. These systems also provide tremendous opportunities in the designing of new controlled and delayed release oral formulations, thus extending the frontier of futuristic pharmaceutical development. Furthermore, recent innovations in pharmaceutical investigation will surely provide real prospects for establishment of novel and effective means in the development of these promising drug delivery systems. In the present paper mucoadhesive microsphere of losartan potassium was formulated and evaluated.
