چکیده

The aim of our study was to improve the availability of Rofecoxib a practically insoluble non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, as a model drug by using liquisolid technique. The effect of powder substrate composition on the flowability and compressibility of liquisolid compacts were evaluated. Specifically, several liquisolid formulations, containing 25-mg Rofecoxib, which containing different carrier to coating ratios in their powder substrates and a fixed liquid medication, were prepared. The dissolution profiles of Rofecoxib liquisolid tablets were determined according to USP method. The obtained dissolution profiles were compared to that of a commercial product. In the present study, the formulated liquisolid systems exhibited acceptable flowability and compressibility. In addition, liquisolid tablets displayed significant enhancement of the dissolution profiles compared to this of commercial one.

In vitro and in vivo evaluation of ordered mesoporous silica as a novel adsorbent in liquisolid formulation

BACKGROUND A liquisolid technique has been reported to be a new approach to improve the release of poorly water-soluble drugs for oral administration. However, an apparent limitation of this technique is the formulation of a high dose because a large amount of liquid vehicle is needed, which finally results in a low-dose liquisolid formulation. Silica as an absorbent has been used extensively i...
