The Fixed Dose Combination (FDC) of two or more drugs in single dosage form, which is more safe and effective for single or different diseases. The bimodal release of formulation is mainly used to achieve rapid and extended release in a single dosage form. For good quality bilayer tablet, the machinery should be constructed as per GMP.
