Loratadine self-microemulsifying drug delivery systems (SMEDDS) in combination with sulforaphane for the synergistic chemoprevention of pancreatic cancer

A Self-microemulsifying Drug Delivery System (smedds)

The oral delivery of lipophilic drugs presents a major challenge because of the low aqueous solubility of such compounds. Selfmicroemulsifying drug delivery systems (SMEDDSs) have gained exposure for their ability to increase solubility and bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs. SMEDDS, which are isotropic mixtures of oils, surfactants, solvents and co-solvents/surfactants, can be used for th...

developement of new oral self-microemulsifying drug delivery systems (smedds) for carvedilol

Design and optimization of self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) of felodipine for chronotherapeutic application

The objective of this research work was to design, develop and optimize the self micro-emulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) of Felodipine (FL) filled in hard gelatine capsule coated with polymer in order to achieve rapid drug release after a desired time lag in the management of hypertension. Microemulsion is composed of a FL, Lauroglycol FCC, Transcutol P and Cremophor EL. The optimum sur...

Self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) of vinpocetine: formulation development and in vivo assessment.

A new self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) has been developed to increase the solubility, dissolution rate and oral bioavailability of vinpocetine (VIP), a poor water-soluble drug. The formulations of VIP-SMEDDS were optimized by solubility assay, compatibility tests, and pseudo-ternary phase diagrams analysis. The optimal ratio in the formulation of SMEDDS was found to be Labraf...

Formulation and in-vitro evaluation of self microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) of Furosemide

Aim of the present investigation was to develop the Self Microemulsifying Drug Delivery System (SMEDDS) of Furosemide. Furosemide is Class IV molecule according to BCS (Biopharmaceutical Classification System), having low solubility and low permeability. Prepared optimized SMEDDS of Furosemide composed of CAPTEX 500 as oil and Cremophore EL as surfactant in 20:80 ratio. Optimized SMEDDS of Furo...
