CONTENTS :
US FDA defined ODT as “A solid dosage form
containing medicinal substances which disintegrates rapidly
usually within a matter of seconds, when placed upon the tongue”.
Recently, ODT have started gaining popularity and acceptance as new drug delivery systems, because they are easy to administer and better patient compliance, especially in elderly and children.
Orodispersible tablets are also known as Mouth dissolving tablets, Orally disintegrating tablets, Melt‐in‐mouth, Fast dissolving drug delivery, Rapimelts tablets, Porous tablets, Quick dissolving tablets etc.
Defination :
Orodispersible tablets (ODT) are oral solid dosage forms that
disintegrate in the oral cavity in easy swallow residue.
faster the drug goes into solution, quicker the absorption and onset
of clinical effect, as the saliva passes down into the stomach. In such
cases, bioavailability of drug is significantly greater than those
observed from conventional tablets dosage form.
Recently ODT terminology has been approved by United States
Pharmacopoeia, British Pharmacopoeia and Centre for Drug
Evaluation and Research (CDER).
Advantages of fast dissolving drug delivery system
Ease administration for patients who are mentally ill, disabled
and uncooperative.
No water needed.
Can be designed to leave minimal or no residue in mouth
It provide a pleasant mouth feel.
No chewing needed.
Better taste obtained by taste masking.
Improved stability, low sensitivity to environmental condition
Disadvantage of Mouth Dissolving Tablets:
Drugs with relatively larger doses are difficult to formulate into
FDT e.g. antibiotics
Patients who concurrently take anticholinergic medications may
not be the best candidates for FDT.
patients with Sjogren's syndrome or dryness of the mouth due
to decreased saliva production may not be good candidates for
these tablet formulations.
Need to formulate fast dissolving tablets
Geriatric patients mainly suffering from conditions like
hand tremors and dysphasia.
Pediatric patients who are unable to swallow easily because
their central nervous system and internal muscles are not
developed completely.
Traveling patients suffering from BP and angina pectoris
that do not have easy access to water.
Mentally challenged patients, bedridden patients and
psychiatric patients.
The ideal characteristics of a drug for fast dissolving tablet
1. Ability to permeate the oral mucosa.
2. Have the ability to diffuse and partition into the epithelium
of the upper GIT.
3. Small to moderate molecular weight.
4. Low dose drugs preferably less than 50 mg.
5. Short half life and frequent dosing drugs are unsuitable for
ODT.
6. Very bitter or unacceptable taste and odour drugs are
unsuitable for ODT.
TECHNIQUES FOR SOLUBILITY ENHANCEMENT
Inclusion Complex Formation Techniques
Grinding method:
Drug and carriers were blended in desired proportions using
spatula for 10 minutes and then ground in mortar with pestle. The
co-grinding mixture was then passed through sieve #40 and stored
in desiccator until further use.
eg. Cyclodextrine
Advantages of cyclodextrin complexes
It improves bioavailability from solid formulations.
Stability and shelf life can be increased.
Gastrointestinal irritation may be reduced.
Complexation prevents drug-drug or drug-additive interaction.
It can be used to mask unpleasant odor and taste.
2. REVIEW OF LITERATURE:-
1) Vikas Agarwal et al: Encyclopedia of pharmaceutical technology, Third edition,Volume 2;stated that A large number of companies are in the ODT drug.As pharmaceutical companies are now starting to recognize the need for more technological advances to meet the new challenges in the future, DDT continues to have a significant impact and contribution in meeting those demands and challenges.
2)Abu-Izza et al: Patent on Fast dissolving tablet; shows the present invention relate to the process for preparation of tablet which dissolve rapidly in the mouth and provide an excellent mouthfeel. The tablet of the invention comprise a compound which melt at about 370C.or lower, have a low hardness, high stability and generally comprise a few insoluble disintegrant which may cause a gritty or chalky sensation in the mouth
Convenient and economically feasible processes by which the tablet of the invention may be produced are also provided.(United States Patent, Patent No. US 6,733,781 B2)
.
3) Jain et al: Patent on Rapidly disintegrating solid dosage form; stated that the rapidly disintegrating solid dosage form of poorly soluble active ingredient and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable water- soluble or water-dispersible excipient, where in poorly soluble active ingredient particles have an average diameter, prior to inclusion in the dosage form, of less than about 2000nm.the dosage form of the invention has the advantage of combining rapid presentation and rapid dissolution of the active ingredient in oral cavity(.(United States Patent, Patent No. US 6,316,029 B1)
4) Sahu Chandra Mohan et al: Recent advances in orodispersible tablets: A Review; studied on The techniques and technologies described in this article represent how recent advances in formulation development and processing technologies make the efforts to achieve orodispersible tablets, conclude that the basic approach followed by all

1. Suitable analytical method based on UV-Visible spectrophotometer was developed for felodipine. λmax of 312.2 nm was identified in methanol and 311 nm in phosphate buffer solution, pH 6.5.
2. From the FT-IR spectra the interference was verified and found that felodipine did not interfere with the excipients used.
3. Direct compression method was established to manufacture fast dissolving tablets of felodipine.
4. Fast dissolving tablets of felodipine were successfully prepared using croscarmellose sodium, sodium starch glycolate, crospovidone.
SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION
SUMMARY
5. In the present study, fast dissolving tablets were prepared using single superdisintegrant in each formulation
6. Evaluation parameters like hardness, friability, weight variation and drug content indicate that values were within permissible limit for all formulations.
7. In vitro drug release study was carried out and based on the results; F-3 was identified as the best formulation among all the other formulations and In vitro release profiles was more than 98% within 45 minutes.
8. The formulation F-3 contains croscarmelose a polymer which causes the disintegration by capillary action. It causes the in vitro dispersion within 45 min.
and hence the formulation F3 was optimized after conducting the reproducibility study.
CONCLUSION
The conclusions arrived in this thesis indicated that the Fast dissolving
tablet of felodipine developed in this investigation releases drug
batter than conventional tablet drug release, based on in vitro release
studies. Further studies are needed to investigate these formulations
for its performance in vivo.
Thus the objectives of the present thesis are achieved.
The result of the study indicates that fast dissolving tablet of felodipine
that can be successfully prepared.
