*Jayprakash, Mohit Khandelwal and Dr. Dilip Agrawal

ABSTRACT

The targeted delivery of pharmaceutical agents has gained significant attention in recent years, aiming to enhance the therapeutic efficacy and minimize side effects. In this context, the development of matrix tablets for colon-specific drug delivery holds great promise. This study focuses on the preparation and evaluation of a matrix tablet containing an anti-inflammatory agent intended for targeting the colon. The use of such a formulation could offer numerous advantages, including improved drug absorption, reduced systemic exposure, and increased patient compliance. By employing specific coating techniques and incorporating colon-targeting polymers, this research aims to optimize the formulation parameters to achieve efficient drug delivery to the colon, ultimately providing a potential solution for the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases and related conditions.
