Amorphous Solid Dispersions (ASDs): The Influence of Material Properties, Manufacturing Processes…
Abstract
Poorly water-soluble drugs pose a significant challenge to developability due to poor oral absorption leading to poor bioavailability. Several approaches exist that improve the oral absorption of such compounds by enhancing the aqueous solubility and/or dissolution rate of the drug.…
