Abstract

The current study's objective is to directly compress a Zopiclone rapid release tablet and assess it. The superdisintegrants (crospovidone, croscarmellose sodium, fenugreek) were used to hasten drug release from tablets. The prepared tablets pre-compression, post-compression characteristics were scrutinised. The interactions between the medication excipients were investigated using FTIR. The research shows that direct compression F3 formulations had a faster drug release of 100.05% over a 45-minute period than other Zopiclone formulations, which had lower dissolving rates when utilising Crospovidone.
