Solubility Enhancement
Co-release of paclitaxel and encequidar from amorphous solid dispersions increase oral paclitaxel…
The oral bioavailability of paclitaxel is limited due to low solubility and high affinity for the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux transporter. Here we hypothesized that maximizing the intestinal paclitaxel levels through apparent solubility enhancement and controlling the simultaneous release of both…

SEPITRAP™ offers new possibilities for formulation and improving the bioavailability of active…
Description
SEPITRAP™ is a micro-encapsulated solubilizer in powder form designed to simplify the manufacturing of solid oral form drugs. It is manufactured by adsorption of the solubilizer in liquid form on a porous support.
SEPITRAP™ is both a solid solubilizer and a compression agent.…

Development of Lipid-based SEDDS Using Digestion Products of Long-chain Triglyceride for High Drug…
A self-emulsifying drug delivery system (SEDDS) containing long chain lipid digestion products (LDP) and surfactants was developed to increase solubility of two model weakly basic drugs, cinnarizine and ritonavir, in the formulation. A 1:1.2 w/w mixture of glyceryl monooleate (Capmul GMO-50; Abitec)…

High loading of lipophilic compounds in mesoporous silica for improved solubility and dissolution…
Loading poorly soluble active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) into mesoporous silica can enable API stabilization in non-crystalline form, which leads to improved dissolution. This is particularly beneficial for highly lipophilic APIs (log D7.4 > 8) as these drugs often exhibit limited…

Development and characterization of solid lipid-based formulations (sLBFs) of ritonavir utilizing a…
As a high number of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) under development belong to BCS classes II and IV, the need for improving bioavailability is critical. A powerful approach is the use of lipid-based formulations (LBFs) that usually consist of a combination of liquid lipids, cosolvents,…

Application of 3D printing technology for the development of dose adjustable geriatric and pediatric…
Abstract
Developing safe and effective formulations for the geriatric and pediatric population is a challenging task due to issues of swallowability and palatability. The lack of standardized procedures for pediatric formulations further complicates the process. Manipulating adult formulations…

Self-microemulsifying system of an ethanolic extract of Heliopsis longipes root for enhanced…
Abstract
Self-microemulsifying or self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (SMEDDS/SNEDDS) are well known to improve the dissolution and increase the oral bioavailability of hydrophobic drugs, including herbal extracts. Organic extracts of Heliopsis longipes root and affinin, its main component,…

Chitosan and Anionic Solubility Enhancer Sulfobutylether-β-Cyclodextrin-Based Nanoparticles as…
Abstract
Cataract surgery interventions are constantly increasing, particularly among adult and elderly patients. This type of surgery can lead to inflammatory states of the ocular anterior segment (AS), usually healed via postoperative treatment with dexamethasone (DEX)-containing eye drops. The…

Nanoformulation for Enhanced Drug Delivery and Better Patient Compliance
The increasing occurrence of highly potent or frequent-administration therapies in the drug development pipeline means that the low solubility of drugs is becoming a potential bottleneck for pharmaceutical formulators. This not only makes getting new medicines to market more time-consuming, it also…

Third-Generation Solid Dispersion Through Lyophilization Enhanced Oral Bioavailability of…
Resveratrol (RES) is a biopharmaceutical classification system (BCS) class II compound with low solubility and high permeability. Several strategies have been explored to overcome the low bioavailability of RES, making the formation of solid dispersions (SDs) one of the most promising. This study…
