Abstract
Researchers throughout the world are focusing intensively on the methods for the development of new drug delivery systems to enhance patient’s compliance. The oral route is the most convenient route for administration of solid dosage form, about 85% of solid dosage administered by oral route because of advantages over others. The oral route however still remained as the best administration route of therapeutic agents for its ease of ingestion, pain avoidance and versatility. Hence, fast dissolving tablets become an emerging trend in the pharmaceutical industry. Fast dissolving tablets are ideal for all types of people, including for people who have swallowing difficulties, paediatric, geriatric, and bedridden patients. The objective of the present article is to highlight traveller friendly orodispersible tablet by direct compression using superdisintegrant materials, the various kinds of superdisintegrants along with their role in tablet disintegration and drug release, which are being used in the formulation to provide the safer, effective drug delivery with patient compliance.
