Aim: This research is focused on enhancing aqueous solubility and dissolution of fluvastatin sodium (FSS) through solid dispersion (FSS-SD) production using polyethylene glycol 6000 and polyvinyl pyrollidone K-30 by kneading technique. Methodology & results: Central composite design explored the influence of polyethylene glycol 6000 and polyvinyl pyrollidone K-30 on T50% and Q90. The aqueous saturation solubility of FSS (8.7 ± 1.12 μg/ml) was amplified 20-fold in FSS-SD (179 ± 4.16 μg/ml). Cumulative drug release from FSS and optimized FSS-SD were 27.49 and 87.4% within 90 min, respectively. Conclusion: FSS-SD production using kneading technique offers great prospective in maximizing FSS's solubility and dissolution.

 Solid dispersions of the antiinflamation drug ibuprofen and polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG 6000) were prepared by the melting method in order to increase the dissolution rates of this poorly water-soluble compound. The temperature/composition phase diagram of binary system was analyzed by termal analysis hot-stage microscopy, showing an eutectic formation. Polarized light hot stage microscopy and X-ray-powder diffraction confirmed, that solid dispersion technique decrease the crystalliny of ibuprofen after melting and solidifying of a 4/6 (w/w) mixture of ibuprofen and polyethylene glycol 6000 respectively, which the results enhanced dissolution rates compared to the physical mixtures and ibuprofen intact. However, no such chemical interactions in the solid state were confirmed by FTIR spectra which showed the presence of ibuprofen crystalline in solid dispersion.
