Abstract
The present study was aimed at formulating and characterizing gastroretentive floating tablets of
diazepam to enhance its therapeutic efficacy through prolonged gastric retention and controlled
drug release. Diazepam, a BCS Class II drug, exhibits pH-dependent solubility with maximum
solubility in acidic pH, making it an ideal candidate for gastroretentive formulation
