Objective: The objective of the present investigation was to improve dissolution characteristics of EZE, which might offer improved bioavailability. Method: The solid dispersion of Ezetimibe was prepared by Solvent evaporation method by using 1:1, 1:2 and 1:3 ratios of drug and polymers (PVP K-30, Sodium starch glycolate). The tablets were prepared by direct compression method. The compressed t...

Purpose: To formulate simvastatin orodispersible tablets with high dissolution rate and enhanced bioavailability. Methods: Simvastatin solid dispersions in βcyclodextrin, hydroxylpropyl-β-cyclodextrin, and hydroxylbutyl-β-cyclodextrin were prepared in different drug: polymer ratios by kneading and solvent evaporation methods. Compatibility was investigated by Differential scanning calorimetry (...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to improve the physicochemical properties and bioavailability of poorly water-soluble sirolimus via preparation of a solid dispersion of nanoparticles using a supercritical antisolvent (SAS) process. METHODS First, excipients for enhancing the stability and solubility of sirolimus were screened. Second, using the SAS process, solid dispersions of sirolimus...

carbamazepine belongs to the class ii biopharmaceutical classification system (bcs) which is characterized by a high per-oral dose, a low aqueous solubility and a high membrane permeability. the bioavailability of such a drug is limited by the dissolution rate. in order to increase the drug dissolution, its solid dispersions were prepared by the cogrinding technique using an insoluble but highl...

the purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of polyethylene glycol (peg) molecular weights (6000, 12000 and 20000) as solid dispersion (sd) carriers on the dissolution behavior of simvastatin. sds with various drug : carrier ratios were prepared by solvent method and evaluated for dissolution rate. differential scanning calorimetry (dsc), x-ray diffraction (xrd), infrared spe...

this study aimed to evaluate enamel roughness after adhesive removal using different burs and an er:yag laser.the buccal surfaces of forty human premolars were sealed by two layers of nail varnish, except for a circular area of 3 mm in diameter on the middle third. the enamel surfaces were initially subjected to profilometry analysis and four parameters of surface irregularity (ra, rq, rt and r...

Purpose: To evaluate the physicochemical properties of clotrimazole (CLT) solid dispersion with Pluronic F127 (PLU). Methods: Solid dispersions of the antifungal drug, clotrimazole, were prepared with Pluronic F127 using grinding (PM) and fusion (FUS) methods. Physicochemical characterization of the dispersions were performed using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), x-ray powder diffracti...

Naproxen is a poor water soluble, non-steroidal analgesic and anti-inflammatory drug. The enhancement of oral bioavailability of poor water soluble drugs remains one of the most challenging aspects of drug development. Although salt formation, solubilization and particle size reduction have commonly been used to increase dissolution rate and thereby oral absorption and bioavailability of low wa...
