Abstract :
The aim of the present study was to develop Sustained release formulation of Fesoterodine Fumarate to maintain
constant therapeutic levels of the drug for over 12 hrs. Here different types of polymers (Locust Bean Gum, Gum
Cyamposis, Corn Sugar Gum) were used. Fesoterodine Fumarate dose was fixed as 8 mg. Total weight of the tablet
was considered as 100 mg. Polymers were used in the concentration of 10, 20 and 30 mg concentration. All the
formulations were passed various physicochemical evaluation parameters and they were found to be within limits.
Whereas from the dissolution studies it was evident that Among all formulations F2 formulation was considered as
optimised formulation. It was shown 99.65% drug release at 12hrs. The optimised formulation F2 was followed
Higuchi release kinetics.
