Abstract

Transdermal films of carvedilol were prepared by using Eudragit RL100  (ERL100) either alone or in combination with Eudragit RS100 (ERS100), hydroxypropyl methylcellulose K 15 LV (HPMC), and ethyl cellulose (EC). The drug release was extended over a period of 24 h from all formulations. The formulation A5 showed 98.33 cumulative % drug releases in 24 h and followed zero order kinetics. The drug transport mechanism was observed to be Fickian. The cumulative % drug diffused through artificial permeation membrane (cellophane A 393) from same formulation was 100.52 % over a 12 h. The mechanism of dug release was governed by Peppas model and the drug diffusion rate followed zero order kinetics. The formulation A5 comprising of polymers ERL 100, ERS 100, EC and   HPMC in 7:1:1:1 ratio fulfills the requirement of good TDDS.
