Aim of the study is to establish physiologically-based in vitro in vivo correlation (IVIVC) of azithromycin, a biopharmaceutics classification system (BCS) class II drug (high permeability/ low solubility). In vitro dissolution was done using USP apparatus II in pH 6 phosphate buffer at 50 rpm. In vivo pharmacokinetic study was done on 28 healthy humans after IRB and Jordan FDA approvals. Plasm...

The aim of the present study was to improve solubility and dissolution of the poorly aqueous soluble drug, etoricoxib by solvent evaporation technique using various sugar carriers, such as lactose, sucrose, and mannitol. Etoricoxib solid dispersions and their respective physical mixtures using lactose, sucrose, and mannitol were prepared in different ratios by solvent evaporation technique. The...

Clarithromycin (CLA), a broad-spectrum macrolide, is a poorly soluble drug with dissolution rate limited absorption. The aim of this investigation was to prepare CLA nanoparticles from a ternary ground mixture in the presence of sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) and polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) as co-grinding water-soluble compounds, in order to improve the drug dissolution rate. Different weight rati...

In situ soil amendments can modify the Pb bioavailability by changing soil Pb speciation. Urban soils from three vegetable gardens containing different total Pb concentrations were used. The study evaluated how compost amendment and aging of soil-compost mixture in situ affected the following: (i) soil Pb speciation in the field and (ii) change of soil Pb speciation during an in vitro bioaccess...

The aim of the present study was to design a new biorelevant dissolution test apparatus for evaluating floating drug delivery systems. The gastric fluid secretion rate, volume of gastric fluid present in the stomach, and gastric emptying from the pylorus opening were taken into consideration. The material of construction was borosilicate glass. In vitro dissolution testing of pharmaceutical dos...

Pioglitazone is an anti-diabetic drug in high blood sugar in patients with type 2 diabetes (non-insulin-dependent diabetes) which was belongs to poor aqueous solubility and bioavailable drug. By using β Cyclodextrin, the solubility and dissolution rate of Pioglitazone HCL can be enhanced and it was evaluated by synthesizing it into solid inclusion complexes in different ratio of drug: β cyclode...

Atorvastatin, an HMG CoA reductase inhibitor, is widely used for the treatment of dyslipidemia and prevention of cardiovascular disease. It belongs to Class 2 of the Biopharmaceutics Classification System owing to its low solubility and high permeability. In vitro dissolution testing is an essential tool for the design of a dosage form. Appropriate selection of dissolution test conditions is es...

The FDA Biopharmaceutical Classification System guidance allows waivers for in vivo bioavailability and bioequivalence studies for immediate-release solid oral dosage forms only for BCS class I. Extensions of the in vivo biowaiver for a number of drugs in BCS class III and BCS class II have been proposed, in particular, BCS class II weak acids. However, a discrepancy between the in vivo BE resu...

Introduction Dissolution testing is routinely carried out in the pharmaceutical industry to determine the rate of dissolution of solid dosage forms. In addition to being a regulatory requirement, in-vitro dissolution testing is used to assist with formulation design, process development, and the demonstration of batch-to-batch reproducibility in production. The most common of such dissolution t...

in published high performance liquid chromatographic (hplc) methods for analysis of topiramate (tpm) in pharmaceutical dosage forms and raw materials refractive index detector (rid) has been used which is not available in many laboratories and has low sensitivity. we described a new, sensitive and simple hplc method for determination of topiramate in pharmaceutical forms and in-virto dissolutio...
