ABSTRACT

    The objective of present study was to develop multiparticulate gastro retentive drug delivery system of ketorolac trometamol. The gastro retentive drug delivery system can be prepared to improve the absorption and bioavailability of ketorolac trometamol by retaining the system in to the stomach for prolonged period of time. The floating drug delivery system of ketorolac trometamol was prepared by emulsion solvent diffusion method by using ethyl cellulose, HPMC K4M, Eudragit R 100, Eudragit S 100 polymers in varying concentration. Formulations were evaluated for percent yield, particle size, entrapment efficiency, in vitro buoyancy and in vitro release studies. The optimized formulations shows good buoyancy and in-vitro controlled release of ketorolac trometamol.

Keywords: Floating microsphere, Ethyl cellulose, HPMC K4M, Eudragit R 100, Eudragit S100.
