title: Optimization of HPMC and carbopol concentrations in non-effervescent floating tablet through factorial design.
abstract: This study was to optimize HPMC K4M and carbopol 934 concentration in the development of non-effervescent floating tablets (NEFTs) of glipizide as model drug using 3(2) factorial design. The time required for releasing drug of 50% and 80% and similarity factor were the target responses. HPMC K4M and carbopol 934 concentrations were the variables. The response surface methodology and optimized polynomial equations were used to select the optimal formulation with desired responses. The excipients used in tablets were compatible with glipizide as per the results of isothermal stress testing and DSC study. The drug release of entire NEFTs followed zero order kinetics and non-Fickian diffusion mechanism. Validation of the optimization technique demonstrated the reliability of the model. The optimized formulation containing 124.33 mg HPMC K4M and 25.76 mg carbopol 934 was prepared according to the software determined levels. The stability study of the optimized formulation proved the integrity of the developed formulation.
