The major objectives of the current study were (i) to prepare carvedilol-loaded buccal tablets by direct compression technique, and (ii) to study the influence of low and high proportions of sodium carboxy methylcellulose (SCMC) in conjunction with the corresponding high and low proportions of sodium alginate, polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP-K-30), carbopol 974P, and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) on the basic properties (hardness, friability, weight variation, thickness uniformity, drug content, mucoadhesive strength, surface pH, swelling property, and drug release behavior) of the tablets. Altering the polymer combinations did not affect the physical properties of the buccal tablets. However, the presence of SCMC and sodium alginate at 1:2 ratio in the tablet showed a sustained drug release.
