Preformulation studies including solubility analysis, compatibility studies (using FTIR and DSC), and flow properties of drug and excipients were conducted to ensure the suitability of components for formulation. Extended release tablets were prepared by direct compression and wet granulation techniques using hydrophilic polymers such as hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) as matrix-forming agents. The tablets were evaluated for physical parameters such as hardness, friability, thickness, drug content, and in vitro drug release profiles. The optimized formulation demonstrated consistent extended release over a 24-hour period, complying with USP dissolution specifications. Stability studies were also carried out as per ICH guidelines. The results suggest that the developed ER tablet of Metoprolol Succinate offers a promising approach for maintaining steady plasma drug concentration, improving patient compliance and therapeutic efficacy.
