Rosuvastatin Calcium

In present investigation liquisolid compact technique is investigated as a tool for enhanced dissolution of poorly water-soluble drug Rosuvastatin calcium (RVT). The model drug RVT, a HMG-Co A reductase inhibitor was formulated in form of directly compressed tablets and liquisolid compacts; and studied for in-vitro release characteristics at different dissolution conditions. In this technique, liquid medications of water insoluble drugs in non-volatile liquid vehicles can be converted into acceptably flowing and compressible powders. Formulated systems were assessed for precompression parameters like flow properties of liquisolid system, Fourior transform infra red spectra (FTIR) analysis, X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and post compression parameters like content uniformity, weight variation, hardness and friability, disintegration test, wetting time, in vitro dissolution studies, effect of dissolution volume on drug release rate, and estimation of fraction of molecularly dispersed drug in liquid medication. As liquisolid compacts demonstrated significantly higher drug release rates, we lead to conclusion that it could be a promising strategy in improving the dissolution of poor water soluble drugs and formulating immediate release solid dosage forms.

Spironolactone is aldosterone antagonist drug belonging to the category of potassium sparing diuretics administered orally that has absolute bioavailability of only 68% due to the poor aqueous solubility. The main aim of the present work was to develop a self emulsifying drug delivery system (SEDDS) to enhance the oral absorption of spironolactone. The solubility of spironolactone in various oils, surfactants, and co surfactants was determined. Pseudo ternary phase diagrams were constructed using castor oil, Tween 80, and polyethylene glycol 400, and distilled water to identify the efficient self-micro emulsion region. Prepared self emulsifying drug delivery system was further evaluated for its emulsification time, drug content, optical clarity, droplet size, zeta potential, in vitro drug release. The results showed that 96.16% drug was released from the SEDDS formulation in 3 hrs. This demonstrated an enhancement in the drug release and thereby, absorption of the drug through the membrane, this was significantly higher than that of the plain drug suspension. Thus, the above findings support that the utility of SEDDS to enhance solubility and dissolution of poorly water soluble compounds which may result in improved Therapeutic performance.
