The formulation factors such as molecular weight of the polyethylene oxide PEO and osmotic agent amount in drug layer and push layer semi permeable membrane thickness estimated by coating weight gain orifice size type of plasticizers and ratios of coating polymer to plasticizer in semipermeable membrane were evaluated. It was found that developed tablets were able to deliver nifedipine in an approximate zero-order manner up to 20 hours and drug release profile of developed tablets was similar to that from Adalat LA tablets. The developed tablet contained PEO N10 PEO 303 in drug layer and push layer respectively percentages of osmotic agent in drug layer and push layer were 10 and 30 respectively weight gain of semipermeable coating was 12 and orifice size was mm.
