Abstrakt: Oral route is one of the most popular routes of drug delivery due to its ease of administration, patient compliance, least sterility constraints and flexible design of dosage form. The aim of present investigation was to develop matrix tablets of atenolol using different polymers. Atenolol matrix tablets were prepared by direct compression and wet granulation method using different polymers. All the formulations were evaluated for weight variation, thickness, hardness, friability and dissolution. Tablets of atenolol were prepared utilizing natural polymer chitosan. The formulation F-2 contained chitosan which might have sustained the release since it is also known for its polymeric sustaining effect. The formulation F-2 gave 89.57±0.24% of the drug release in 12 hrs of study. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
