Aloe vera is formulated into films by solvent casting technique using ethyl cellulose, Carbopol 971p and Hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose k4m ,followed by a progressive fall and extended with PEG 4000 as plasticizer and prepared films were evaluated for various properties such as weight variation, tensile strength, moisture loss, drug content, in-vitro drug release, In-vitro antibacterial and stability studies. The thickness among the different films was uniform, tensile strength was minimum for pain films and maximum for films containing drug.
