Evaluation of the Effects of Storage Conditions on Spray-Dried siRNA-LNPs Before and after…
In an ideal world, pharmaceutical drugs would have infinite shelf life, no susceptibility to degradation, chemical reactions or loss of efficacy. In reality, these processes occur, however, making it desirable to extend a drugs’ shelf life. Nucleic acid-based drugs are most commonly stored as…

Omega-3 fatty acid-based self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) of pioglitazone:…
Pioglitazone (PGL) is an effective insulin sensitizer, however, side effects such as accumulation of subcutaneous fat, edema, and weight gain as well as poor oral bioavailability limit its therapeutic potential for oral delivery. Recent studies have shown that combination of both, PGL and fish oil…

Chitosan-coated nanostructured lipid carriers for effective brain delivery of Tanshinone IIA in…
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common progressive neurodegenerative disorder associated with increased oxidative stress, the underlying vital process contributing to cell death. Tanshinone IIA (TAN) is a phytomedicine with a documented activity in treating many CNS disorders,…

Nanostructured Lipid Carriers to Enhance the Bioavailability and Solubility of Ranolazine:…
Chronic stable angina pectoris is the primary indication for ranolazine (RZ), an anti-anginal drug. The drug has an anti-ischemic action that is unaffected by either blood pressure or heart rate. Due to the first-pass effect, the drug has a reduced bioavailability of 35 to 50%. The study emphasized…

Development of Bedaquiline Loaded SNEDDS Using Quality by Design (QbD) Approach to Improve…
Background:
The ever-growing emergence of antibiotic resistance associated with tuberculosis (TB) has become a global challenge. In 2012, USFDA has given expedited approval to bedaquiline (BDQ), as a new treatment for drug-resistant TB in adults when no other viable options are available. BDQ is a…

Enhanced stability and skin permeation of ibuprofen-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles based binary…
Hypothesis
The type of emulsifier selected has an impact on the physicochemical properties of solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs). This study was designed to compare the effects of emulsifiers on the physicochemical properties and in vitro skin performance of SLNs prepared from a binary mixture of…

Development and optimization of Ropinirole loaded self-nanoemulsifying tablets
Background
The present research work aims to develop a Ropinirole-loaded self-Nanoemulsifying Drug Delivery system. Ropinirole has limited oral bioavailability due to substantial first-pass metabolism, which ultimately results in poor oral bioavailability and reduces plasma drug concentration and…

Application of Design of Experiment in the Optimization of Apixaban-Loaded Solid Lipid…
Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLnPs) are usually utilized as lipid-based formulations for enhancing oral bioavailability of BCS class IV drugs. Accordingly, the objective of this work was to investigate the effect of formulation and processing variables on the properties of the developed SLnPs for oral…

Lipid based formulations as supersaturating oral delivery systems: from current to future industrial…
Lipid-based formulations, in particular supersaturated lipid-based formulations, are important delivery approaches when formulating challenging compounds, as especially low water-soluble compounds profit from delivery in a pre-dissolved state. In this article, the classification of lipid-based…

Tailoring the release of drugs having different water solubility by hybrid polymer-lipid…
The aim of this study is to investigate the potential of hybrid polymer-lipid microparticles with a biphasic structure (b-MPs) as drug delivery system. Hybrid b-MPs of Compritol®888 ATO as main lipid constituent of the shell and polyethylene glycol 400 as core material were produced by an innovative…
