Kollidon® VA 64 and Soluplus® as modern polymeric carriers for amorphous solid dispersions
As the number of new drug candidates that are poorly soluble in water grows, new technologies that enable the enhancement of their solubility are needed. This is the case with amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) that, nowadays, not only ensure the solubility, but can also be used to control the …

Cyclodextrin Inclusion Complexes with Antibiotics and Antibacterial Agents as Drug-Delivery…
Cyclodextrins (CDs) are a family of cyclic oligosaccharides, consisting of a macrocyclic ring of glucose subunits linked by α-1,4 glycosidic bonds. The shape of CD molecules is similar to a truncated cone with a hydrophobic inner cavity and a hydrophilic surface, which allows the formation of…

High dose nanocrystalline solid dispersion powder of voriconazole for inhalation
In the current work, we aimed to deliver high dose of voriconazole (VRC) to lung through dry powder for inhalation (DPIs). Furthermore, the research tested the hypothesis that drug nanocrystals can escape the clearance mechanisms in lung by virtue of their size and rapid dissolution. High dose…
