Abstract

The main objective of the present study is to give a general view of gas-generating floating tablets and past work done on them. The authors gave an overview of gas-generating floating tablets by referring to peer-reviewed journals, magazines, and books. The data so obtained was encrypted and compiled. The outcome of this data is the generation of a literature that helps the researchers quickly refer to the pasty work done on the gastro-retentive floating tablets. The study concludes that the gas generating floating tablets not only increase gastric residence time but also provide a prolonged therapeutic effect.
