The objective of this study was to develop and evaluate lacidipine (LD) loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (LD-SLNs) for improving the oral bioavailability. LD-SLNs were prepared in two steps. First step was hot homogenization and next by ultrasonication method, using triglycerides (tripalmitin and tristearin), monoglyceride and surfactants (Poloxamer 188 and egg lecithin E80). The prepared LD-SLNs were characterized for particle size, PDI, zeta potential, drug content, entrapment efficiency (EE %).         In vitro drug release studies using a dialysis bag method in 0.1N HCl and pH 6.8 phosphate buffer were conducted. In addition, long-term physical stability of the optimized SLNs was investigated at refrigerated and room temperature for 60 days. FTIR and DSC studies revealed that no interaction between the drug and lipids. LD-SLNs prepared with Dynasan-116 (F3), having the size of 141.86nm, PDI of 0.293, ZP of -22.3 m with 94.75% of EE was optimized and was stable for 60days. Scanning electron microscopic studies showed nearly spherical shaped particles. Further, pharmacokinetic studies were conducted in wistar rats. The relative bioavailability of LD in SLNs was 2.03 times when compared with that of the LD suspension. The results are indicative of SLNs as suitable lipid based carrier system for improving the oral bioavailability of LD.

Famotidine as H2 receptor has antagonistic effects on gastric secretion. Unfortunately, its hydrophobic nature contributes to its variable and poor oral bioavailability. In the current study efforts are being made to fabricate famotidine loaded solid lipid nanoparticles with narrow size distribution. Prepared nanoformulations were pharmaceutically evaluated to confirm the desired boosted oral bioavailability. Famotidine loaded nanoformulation (FFSe-4) showed particle size 111.9±1.3 nm, polydispersity index 0.464±0.03, zeta potential −33.46±2 mV, entrapment efficiency 84±2.7%, and drug loading capacity 2.709±0.13%. Drug-excipients compatibility was confirmed by Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy. Scanning electron microscopy confirmed spherical shaped, nanosized particles. Differential scanning calorimetry and powder X-ray diffractometry confirmed the change in crystalline nature. Prepared nanoformulation was more stable at refrigerated temperature. In vitro study showed that drug release time is proportional to drug pay load and followed zero order kinetics. Release exponent (n>0.5) confirmed non-Fickian-diffusion mechanism for drug release. In vivo pharmacokinetic studies showed 2.06-fold increase in oral bioavailability of famotidine dispersed in solid lipid nanoparticles compared to commercial product. These results authenticate solid lipid nanoparticles as drug delivery system and propose prolonged release with improved oral bioavailability for famotidine.

Background: Dronedarone HCl (DRD), owing to its poor aqueous solubility and extensive presystemic metabolism shows low oral bioavailability of about 4% without food, which increases to approximately 15% when administered with a high fat meal. Objective: Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) were designed with glyceryl monstearate (GMS) in order to improve oral bioavailability of DRD. Methods: Hot homogenization followed by probe sonication was used to prepare SLN dispersions. Box-Behnken design was used to optimize manufacturing conditions. SLN were characterized for particle size, zeta potential, entrapment efficiency, physical state and in vitro drug release. Pharmacokinetics and intestinal uptake study of dronedarone HCl loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (DRD-SLN) in the presence and absence of endocytic uptake inhibitor, chlorpromazine (CPZ) was performed with conscious male Wistar rats. Results: Optimized formulation of SLN showed particle size of 233 ± 42 nm and entrapment efficiency of 87.4 ± 1.29%. Results of pharmacokinetic studies revealed enhancement of bioavailability of DRD by 2.68 folds from SLN as compared to DRD suspension. Significantly reduced bioavailability of DRD-SLNs in the presence of chlorpromazine, demonstrated the role of endocytosis in uptake of SLN formulation. Conclusion: These results indicated that dronedarone HCl loaded SLN could potentially be exploited as a delivery system for improving oral bioavailability by minimizing first pass metabolism.

Felodipine is an antihypertensive drug with poor oral bioavailability due to the first pass metabolism. For improving the oral bioavailability, felodipine loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) were developed using trimyristin, tripalmitin and glyceryl monostearate. Poloxamer 188 was used as surfactant. Lipid excipient compatibilities were confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry. SLN dispersions were prepared by hot homogenization of molten lipids and aqueous phase followed by ultrasonication at a temperature, above the melting point. SLNs were characterized for particle size, zeta potential, drug content, entrapment efficiency and crystallinity of lipid and drug. In vitro release studies were performed in 0.1N HCl and phosphate buffer of pH 6.8 using dialysis method. Pharmacokinetics of felodipine-SLNs after oral admini-stration in male Wistar rats was studied. The bioavailability of felodipine was increased by 1.75 fold when compared to that of a felodipine suspension.
