Artesunate is a poorly soluble drug and liable to aqueous hydrolysis. This study aims to formulate Artesunate as an immediate release tablet through optimization of the melt granulation technique to improve the dissolution of the drug. Three different meltable binders were used (Polyethylene Glycol…
