Paracetamol is an important anti-inflammatory and analgesic drug widely used in biological disorders. One of major problems with this drugs is its low solubility thus dissolution rate in biological fluid, which results into poor bioavailability after oral administration. In this study polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) is used to enhance bioavailability of paracetamol. Paracetamol and PVP are used in ...

In this study, the effect of particle size of genistein-loaded solid lipid particulate systems on drug dissolution behavior and oral bioavailability was investigated. Genistein-loaded solid lipid microparticles and nanoparticles were prepared with glyceryl palmitostearate. Except for the particle size, other properties of genistein-loaded solid lipid microparticles and nanoparticles such as par...

Nanocrystals of tadalafil, a poorly water-soluble drug, were successfully prepared by sonoprecipitation technique for improving the solubility and dissolution rate. Tween80 was selected as an efficient surfactant to inhibit aggregation in stabilization of drug nanocrystals. Response surface methodology based on central composite design (CCD) was utilized to evaluate the formulation factors affe...

In this study,formulation of sustained-releasingmatrix tablet of bupropion 150 mg, using hydroxypropylmethylcellu lose(HPMC) 4000cps was evaluatedwith the aim of reducing the frequency of daily dose. The level of HPMC4000 ,polyvinylpyrolidone(PVP) and magnesium stearate(Mg St)was varied based on a 2level 3 factor factorial experimental designusing the release rate of the drug from the matrices ...

objective(s) ibuprofen is a problematic drug in tableting, and dissolution due to its poor solubility, hydrophobicity, and tendency to stick to surface. because of the bad compaction behavior ibuprofen has to be granulated usually before tableting. however, it would be more satisfactory to obtain directly during the crystallization step crystalline particles that can be directly compressed and ...

meloxicam is a poorly water soluble non steroidal anti-inflammatory drug and antipyretic agent. the aim of the present work was to investigate the effect of different types of carriers on in vitro dissolution of meloxicam. meloxicam solid dispersions were prepared by physical mixing, co-grinding and solvent evaporation methods with polyethylene glycol (peg) 6000. the effect of solubilization by...

The present study was aimed at investigating the effect of hydrotrope and surfactant on poor solubility of atorvastatin calcium. Excipients screening followed by factorial design was performed to study effect of excipients and manufacturing methods on solubility of drug. Three independent factors (carrier, surfactant and manufacturing method) were evaluated at two levels using solubility as a d...

in the present study solid dispersions of the antifungal drug ketoconazole were prepared with pluronic f-127 and pvp k-30 with an intention to improve its dissolution properties. investigations of the properties of the dispersions were performed using release studies, differential scanning calorimetery (dsc), x-ray powder diffraction (xrd) and fourier transform infrared (ftir). the results obta...

BACKGROUND Scintigraphic studies have been performed to assess the release, both in vitro and in vivo, of radiotracers from tablet formulations. Four different tracers with differing physicochemical characteristics have been evaluated to assess their suitability as models for drug delivery. METHODS In-vitro disintegration and dissolution studies have been performed at pH 1, 4 and 7. In-vivo s...
