Fabrication and Optimization of Directly Compressible Self-Emulsifying Tablets Containing Cannabis…
Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabidiol, which are present in cannabis extract, exhibit low bioavailability when administered orally due to significant first-pass metabolism. The use of a self-emulsifying drug delivery system (SEDDS) can enhance their dissolution and bioavailability. However, liquid…

A Comprehensive Review of Disintegrants: Backbone of disintegration
Abstract
Strong attractive bonding forces works among the particles of solid dosage forms such as mechanical, solid and intermolecular and bioavailability of solid dosage form is preferentially dependent on in vivo disintegration then dissolution. This review is focused for disintegrating agents,…

The Development of Lipid-Based Sorafenib Granules to Enhance the Oral Absorption of Sorafenib
Abstract
Sorafenib (SFN) is an anticancer multi-kinase inhibitor with great therapeutic potential. However, SFN has low aqueous solubility, which limits its oral absorption. Lipids and surfactants have the potential to improve the solubility of water-insoluble drugs. The aim of this study is thus…
