Controlled release dosage forms are essential in certain dosage regimens where release rate of drug impacts the effectiveness for therapy. In the present study, modified release dosage form of Domperidone was developed in the form of pellets which were subsequently compressed into tablet to disintegrate and swallow by patients without changing the release profile.

A two factor three level factorial design was used to investigate the effects of carbopol and cationic hydrophilic polymerswhich have a common use in buccal drug formulations. Statistical modelswith interaction terms were derived to evaluate influence of carbopol(X1) and chitosan (X2) on tablet disintegration (Y1) and dissolution(Y2), mechanical properties (Y3), swelling (Y4).
