As Candesartan is water insoluble drug this adversely affects bioavailability and bioequivalence.In present study efforts are made to reduce its disintegrating time using Plantago ovata and Sodium starch glycolate as comparative superdisintegrnats.. The objective of the present study was to prepare the fast dissolving tablet of
