Fexofenadine is a selective histamine H(1) receptor antagonist, used for relief of the symptoms of allergy. However its aqueous solubility is very poor. Solid inclusion complexes of fexofenadine and β-cyclodextrin were prepared at the molar ratios of 1:1 and 1:2 by kneading, and coprecipitation methods to improve its solubility. Characterization of the complexes was performed using infrared spe...

This study presents improvement in solubility and dissolution rate of valsartan (VAL) using β-cyclodextrin (βCD) and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-βCD). Formation and characterization of solid inclusion complexes were investigated by DSC, FTIR, SEM, HNMR and in-vitro dissolution studies. Preparation method influenced physical properties of binary mixtures. Inclusion complexes obtained by co-...

  Objective(s): The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of the natural and the chemically modified form of cyclodextrins namely; β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) respectively on the solubility and dissolution rate of aripiprazole; an antipsychotic medication showing poor aqueous solubility.   Materials and Methods: Phase solubility of ar...

Abstract: Guinier-Preston (GP) zone formation and precipitation behavior of T1 (Al2CuLi) phase during the ageingof an Al-Cu-Li-Zr alloy was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) technique and electrical resistancemeasurement of the samples. Results show that endothermic effects in the thermograms of the alloy between 180°Cand 240°C can be related to the enthalpy of GPzones dissolut...

Diosmin, a vascular-protecting agent, is practically insoluble in water, and its oral absorption is limited by its extremely low dissolution rate. In this study, β-cyclodextrin (βCD) and 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD) were obtained to improve the solubility and dissolution rate of diosmin. Phase solubility studies of diosmin with βCD and HPβCD in distilled water were conducted to charac...

Pioglitazone, a class II Biopharmaceutical Classification System drug having poor water solubility and slow dissolution rate may have a negative impact on its subtherapeutic plasma drug levels leading to therapeutic failure. In order to improve its water solubility and thus dissolution, cyclodextrin complexation technique was followed. The phase solubility studies were carried using three diffe...

Calcium phosphate (CaP) ceramic coatings have been used to enhance the biocompatibility and osteoconductive properties of metallic implants. The chemical composition of these ceramic coatings is an important parameter, which can influence the final bone performance of the implant. In this study, the effect of phase composition of CaP-sputtered coatings was investigated on in vitro dissolution b...

Atorvastatin is a BCS class II lipid lowering agent. It is insoluble in aqueous solution of pH 4 and below; it is very slightly soluble in water and pH 7.4 phosphate buffer. In the present investigation an attempt has been made to enhance solubility and dissolution of poorly soluble drug by formulating self microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS). The solubility of atorvastatin in indivi...

This paper presents results of a pharmacokinetics study concerning pentoxifylline and its main metabolites after administration of extended release formulation of Trental 400 mg and correlation of this pharmacokinetics with in vitro dissolution test results of parent drug. In order to establish most relevant in vitro test, dissolution was performed in different experimental conditions (stirring...
