Mouth dissolving tablets are a solid dosage form containing medicinal substance which disintegrates fast, typically within a matter of seconds, when placed against the tongue. Its popularity is increasing day by day due to its ease of administration, for patient having problem in swallowing, particularly pediatrics, geriatrics and, patients with dysphagia. The aim of this article is to study the use of natural polymer as superdisintegrants in mouth dissolving tablets. Natural polymer such as Soy Polysaccharide, Lepidium sativun mucilage, Fenugreek gum, Dehydrated banana powder, orange peel pectin, Mangifera indica gum, Hibiscus rosa sinenses mucilage, Locust bean gum, etc. improve the physicochemical properties of tablets, viz., increased the solubility of poorly water soluble drug, decreased disintegration time and add nutritional value as well. Natural polymers are economic, non-toxic, biodegradable, environmentally friendly, more reliable and safe than synthetic polymers
