This research aimed to prepare Telmisartan solid dispersions with polymer blend [Equal portion of PVP K-30, Poloxamer-188, and (HPMC) K4M. Various ratios of Telmisartan: Polymer blend in the ratios (1: 1, 1: 3, 1: 5 and 1: 7) were fabricated as solid dispersions by melting and solvent evaporation methods, later compressed into tablets. The solid dispersions were tested for physicochemical, and release constraints. The results discovered that the formulations were impressed with the increase in the solubility. Among them formulation with a 1: 5 ratio found to be the best proportion for enhancing the solubility and release rate of Telmisartan from the solid dispersions.
