Cinitapride has been widely given in gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) and dysphagia due to irregularities of GI motilities. Mouth dissolving tablets were prepared for rapid availability and action of drug. Multi-point dissolution studies were conducted in 0.1 N HCl solution of pH 1.2 and phosphate buffer of pH 4.5 and 6.8. Drug release profile showed higher liberation of cinitapride at lower pH then basic medium (<80%). Formulation containing crospovidone (10%) was found to be optimized trial having excellent quality pharmaceutical attributes. The lowest AIC, highest MSC and regression (> 0.9) values were observed for Weibull kinetics in all dissolution medium reflecting the excellent model fitting for the present study. Accelerated stability testing data showed excellent results of drug assay (>99%) along with physical characteristics indicating the absence of drug degradation as well excipient interaction. The estimated shelf life period of various optimized trial formulations was found in between 33 to 41 months.
