Determining Particle Size of Polymeric Micelles in Thermothickening Aqueous Solutions
Many active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) are poorly soluble and cause inadequate drug absorption. Soluplus®, a polyvinyl caprolactam-polyvinyl acetate-polyethylene glycol graft copolymer, is a commercial excipient (BASF Corp) that enhances the solubility and bioavailability of many APIs. The…

The Role of Functional Excipients in Solid Oral Dosage Forms to Overcome Poor Drug Dissolution and…
Many active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) exhibit poor solubility and low dissolution rates in aqueous environments such as the luminal fluids of the gastrointestinal tract. The oral bioavailability of these compounds is usually very low as a result of their poor solubility properties. In order…

Enhancement of loading and oral bioavailability of curcumin loaded self-microemulsifying lipid…
The therapeutic applications of curcumin, a phenolic compound extracted from Curcuma species, is limited due to poor bioavailability. To enhance the bioavailability, self-microemulsifying drug delivery systems (SMEDDS) with curcumin were prepared. Ethyl oleate, Tween 80, and Transcutol® P with…

Solidification of SMEDDS by fluid bed granulation and manufacturing of fast drug release tablets
Solidification of self-microemulsifying drug delivery systems (SMEDDS) is a rising experimental field with important potential for pharmaceutical industry, however fluid-bed granulation with SMEDDS is yet an unexplored solidification technique. The aim of the study was to solidify carvedilol-loaded…

Poloxamer modified florfenicol instant microparticles for improved oral bioavailability
Surfactants can improve the hydrophobicity of poorly water-soluble drugs and increase the stability of microparticles by reducing surface tension. This study describes that surfactant-engineered florfenicol instant microparticles (FIMs) increase bioavailability through a micellar solubilization…

Enhanced dissolution and oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble herb (Kaempferia parviflora)…
Kaempferia parviflora (KP) is a Thai traditional herb. The primary pharmacologically active substances are methoxyflavones, namely, 5,7-dimethoxyflavone, 5,7,4′-trimethoxyflavone, and 3,5,7,3′,4′-pentamethoxyflavone. These methoxyflavones are poorly soluble in water and thus have low oral…

Factors affecting the stability and performance of amorphous solid dispersions of poorly soluble…
Over the last twenty years, the poor solubility profile of pipeline drugs has limited their development as solid oral dosage forms. Formulating these APIs as amorphous solid dispersions is one strategy to overcome their poor aqueous solubility. The major limitation to amorphous solid dispersion…

Thermodynamic Aspects of the Preparation of Amorphous Solid Dispersions of Naringenin with Enhanced…
Amorphous ternary solid dispersions of poorly water-soluble Naringenin (NRG) in Poloxamer 188 (POX) and Neusilin US2 (NSL) were prepared in a Hot- Melt Extruder (HME) using the principle of Low-Temperature Solubilization. Before HME, the NRG-POX solid-state interaction was investigated using Flory…
