The poster describes the formulation of sustained release tablets with Metformin HCl (a well-known oral antihyperglycemic) using Compritol® 888 ATO as a sustained release agent. Different granulation techniques were evaluated to elucidate the impact of formulation and process on tablet properties and drug release. The objective was to determine a simple process that enables the production of ‘smaller’ tablets, using less excipients, whilst maintaining therapeutic drug dose and obtaining drug release which passes Pharmacopeial specifications.
