We have successfully developed curcumin nanosuspension intended for oral delivery. The main purpose is to improve bioavailability through enhancing its solubility. The nanoparticles were stabilized using various stabilizers, including polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), sodium carboxymethylcellulose (Na-CMC), d-α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS), and sodium...

Time and resource constraints necessitate increasingly early decisions to advance or halt pre-clinical drug discovery programs. Early discovery or ‘‘tool’’ compounds may be potent inhibitors of new targets, but all too often they exhibit poor pharmaceutical and pharmacokinetic properties that make early assessment of in vivo efficacy difficult. 1,3-Dicyclohexylurea, a potent and selective inhib...

Low water solubility and high permeability present formulation challenges for drugs categorized as Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS) Class II, resulting in reduced bioavailability. This research focuses on addressing the issues of BCS II drugs, including Simvastatin, Ketoprofen, griseofulvin, ibuprofen, ketoconazole, carbamazepine, which exhibit but poor solubility. A potential strat...

Nanosuspension technology has been developed as a promising candidate for efficient delivery of hydrophobic drugs. It could maintain the required crystalline state of the drug with reduced particle size, leading to an increased reporting on dissolution rate and therefore improved bioavailability. In this paper, we report on the preparation of ketoprofen (KTF) nanosuspension by high-pressure hom...

Oridonin, a diterpenoid isolated from Rabdosia rubescencs, has been reported to have antitumor effects. However, low solubility has limited its clinical applications. Preparation of drugs in the form of nanosuspensions is an extensively utilized protocol. In this study, we investigated the anticancer activity of oridonin and oridonin nanosuspension on human pancreatic carcinoma PANC-1 cells. 3-...

Nanotechnology has emerged as an tremendous field in the medicine.Nano refers to particles size range of 1-1000nm.Nanosuspensions are part of nanotechnology.Many of the drug candidates are exhibiting poor aqueous solubility. The use of drug nanosuspension is an universal formulation approach to increase the therapeutic performance of these drugs in any route of administration.A pharmaceutical n...

The objective of this study was to prepare and characterise nevirapine nanosuspensions so as to improve the dissolution rate of nevirapine. Nevirapine is a nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor of immunodeficiency virus type-1 and it is poorly water-soluble antiretroviral drug. The low solubility of nevirapine can lead to decreased and variable oral bioavailability. Nanosuspension can o...

objective(s):  the aim of this study was to prepare a nanosuspension formulation as a new vehicle for the improvement of the ocular delivery of vitamin a.  material and methods:   formulations were designed based on full factorial design. a high pressure homogenization technique was used to produce nanosuspensions. fifteen formulations were prepared by the use of different combinations of surfa...
