## Abstract With bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a model drug, drug‐loaded films of chitosan (CS) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) were obtained by a casting/solvent evaporation method and crosslinked by tripolyphosphate (TPP). The films were characterized by FTIR, XRD, and SEM. The influential factors
Chitosan tablets containing theophylline were prepared by directly compressing the wet or dry blended polymer-drug powders. The effects of the viscosity and swelling ability on the release rates of drugs were examined. The theophylline releasing rates of tablets prepared by polymer-drug wet blending
