Development and in vitro evaluation of micronized sustained release matrix tablet of carvedilol

Carvedilol, a non selective β blocking drug under the biopharmaceutical classification system (BCS) class II, is widely used in the treatment of hypertension. Solubility of this drug is very low which affects in low dissolution rate and in turn affect the bioavailability of this drug following oral...
