PURPOSE Solid dispersions have been efficient in improving the dissolution rate and bioavailability of hydrophobic drugs. The aim of the present study was enhancement of the dissolution profile of Spironolactone using solid dispersion. METHODS Spironolactone solid dispersions (1:1, 1:2 and 2:1 drug: carrier weight ratio) were prepared by polyethylene glycol (PEG) 6000 as a carrier by hot melt...

INTRODUCTION Many drugs show bioavailability problems due to their low water solubility, slow dissolution rate, and instability in the gastrointestinal tract. Nimesulide is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic agent, chemically is N-(4 nitro-2-phenoxyphenyl) methane sulfonamide. It is poorly soluble in water and irregularly absorbed by gastrointestinal tract. Among the v...

Talinolol is a beta1-selective adreno receptor antagonist well known for its Cardio protective and antihypertensive activity. beta blocker. In biopharmaceutical classification system the drugs which come under class II are characterized by more membrane permeability, less dissolution rate. poor aqueous solubility drug leads to bioavailability. So, aimed of this study was develop immediate relea...

Chronobiology of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) was studied using a standard adjuvant arthritis animal model. Chronopharmacology of ketoprofen, and its solid dispersion forms was also studied. Temporal variations in the degree of articular inflammation (paw volume) and progression of articular destruction were studied by injecting Freund's Complete Adjuvant (FCA) at 0800 and 2000 hrs. Temporal varia...

The aim of this study was to develop celecoxib-polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) solid dispersion nanoparticles with and without surfactant using the supercritical antisolvent (SAS) process. The effect of different surfactants such as gelucire 44/14, poloxamer 188, poloxamer 407, Ryoto sugar ester L1695, and d-α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) on nanoparticle formation and dissolu...

The aim of this study was to assess the effects of processing parameters on the release of solid dispersion formulation from a fast dissolving tablet dosage form. Graphical and mathematical analysis such as the response surface methodology (RSM) and multiple response optimizations utilizing the polynomial equation were used to search for the optimal formulation and to quantify the effect of eac...

OBJECTIVES Solid dispersion formulation is the most promising strategy to improve oral bioavailability of poorly water soluble drugs. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of polyvinylpyrrolidone K30 (PVP) and poloxamer-188 (PLX) as carrier in solid dispersion formulations of celecoxib (CLX). MATERIALS AND METHODS Solid dispersions of CLX:PVP or CLX:PLX were prepared at different ra...
