 This study investigated the feasibility of developing delayed release to clofenac tablets using press-coating technology. The tablets were composed of a core tablet containing to-clofenac sodium and coated with either tragacanth or xanthan gum. The coating was designed to delay the release of the drug until it reached the stomach, where it would then dissolve quickly. The tablets were tested for physical properties such as weight variation, crushing strength, friability, and swelling index. Additionally, the tablets were subjected to in vitro testing in three different simulated gastric fluids to determine their lag time and rate of release. The results showed that the core and coated tablets met all specifications and could be used in chronopharmaceutical drug delivery. The optimized batch F6 consisting of 40% xanthan and 60% tragacanth gum coat provided a lag time of 6 hours, followed by a burst release and complete drug release of 98.51%.
