        <p>The Main goal of the present study was to develop and evaluate the orally disintegrating mini-tablets (ODMTs) containing Salbutamol sulphate for the treatment of respiratory disorders like Asthma and Chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases. The problems associated with conventional oral dosage forms are associated with slow down onset of action and lag time, while parenterals and aerosol despite of quick-outset of action strongly affect the patient compliance. Quick release tablets are highly accepted rapid increasing drug delivery systems and thus, an attempt was made to improve the onset of action of drug. To reach this goal, selective superdisintegrants like Crospovidone and Sodium starch glycolate were used in different ratios. Micromeritic properties of the powder were within the limit confirmed by free flowing. ODMTs were compressed in order to have sufficient mechanical strength and integrity to withstand handling, shipping and transportation. The tablets were prepared by direct compression method and physicochemical properties were evaluated. FTIR and DSC studies were confirms no chemical interaction between the excipients and drug. Out of six formulations prepared tablet F3 resulted a least dissolution and disintegration time. Hence, concluded that ODMTs give the better effect to the asthma patients and may serve as a successful strategy for enhancing the bioavailability of drug.</p>
