ABSTRACT :
The main aim for performing this project is to increase the bioavailabilty of lamotrigine as well as its onset of action to control the seizures that occur during the epileptic attack. To serve this purpose we will use mucilage of oscimum basilicum as a natural superdisintegrant & later comparing it with different novel synthetic superdisintegrant. By preparing a rapid disintegrating tablet of lamotrigine, rapid action of same can be achieved easily.
As we know that superdisintegrant plays the major role in rapid disintegration of tablet, thus it is very important to select a right or correct superdisintegrant in all respect which fulfill its purpose without effecting other parameters of tablet formulation and gives quicker and better result, when the number of formulation with different combinations of superdisintegrants (Natural & Synthetic) will be made then it would become very easy to evaluate and get the formulation with maximum desirable results.Lamotrigine being a poorly water soluble drug, needs modification to make them water soluble.
