Bioavailability Enhancement of Artemether and Lumefantrine by Improving Solubility and Dissolution Rate using Solid Dispersion Technique

Enhancement of Dissolution Rate of Efavirenz by Solid Dispersion Technique

Efavirenz is an HIV-1 specific, non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI).It is an antiretroviral agent indicated for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection, which is not soluble in water and lower absorption in gastric fluid. In order to improve the solubility and oral absorption of the drug in gastric fluid and to enhance its dissolution rate, soli...

Dissolution Rate Enhancement and Physicochemical Characterization of Artemether and Lumefantrine Solid Dispersions

Solubility and Dissolution Enhancement of Etoricoxib by Solid Dispersion Technique Using Sugar Carriers

The aim of the present study was to improve solubility and dissolution of the poorly aqueous soluble drug, etoricoxib by solvent evaporation technique using various sugar carriers, such as lactose, sucrose, and mannitol. Etoricoxib solid dispersions and their respective physical mixtures using lactose, sucrose, and mannitol were prepared in different ratios by solvent evaporation technique. The...

Enhancement of dissolution rate of etoricoxib through solid dispersion technique

Etoricoxib, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, is used to Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid arthritis and Acute Gouty arthritis. Etoricoxib is practically insoluble in water; hence present study was carried out to enhance dissolution properties of Etoricoxib through the preparation of Solid Dispersions using PEG 6000 as carrier at various proportions by using different techniques like Physical mi...

Artemether-Soluplus Hot-Melt Extrudate Solid Dispersion Systems for Solubility and Dissolution Rate Enhancement with Amorphous State Characteristics

This work studied artemether (ARTM) solid dispersion (SD) formulation using mixture of polymer excipient Soluplus, PEG 400, Lutrol F127, and Lutrol F68 melts at temperatures lower than the melting point of ARTM using a laboratory-size, single-screw rotating batch extruder. The effects of three surfactants PEG 400, Lutrol F127, and Lutrol F68 and parameters like mixing temperature, screw rotatin...
