Ketoprofen [2-(3-benzoylphenyl)-propionic acid], a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug exhibits poor dissolution pattern. Solid dispersion (SD) techniques were used because it is particularly promising to improve the oral absorption and bioavailability of BCS Class II drugs. This investigation entails solid dispersion of ketoprofen which was formulated and characterized for better release profile and immediate action of the drug. Melting method was applied to prepare solid dispersion by using two immediate release (IR) polymer PEG 6000 and HPMC 6 cps at different weight ratios. In the formulation, a fixed amount of lactose was used as adsorbent. The solid dispersions were investigated for drug entrapment efficiency and dissolution behavior. In vitro dissolution study was performed in phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) medium for one hour. Percent cumulative drug release from solid dispersion was found to be minimum 92.19% and maximum 98.95% within one hour, which showed a better dissolution compared to the active drugs. Evaluation of the properties of the solid dispersion was also performed by using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) study and Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA). SEM results indicated that ketoprofen crystallinity in SDs was significantly reduced, and that the majority of ketoprofen was in amorphous form. No interaction was found between drug and polymers from DTA and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy analysis. So, solid dispersion technique may be an effective technique to enhance dissolution rate of ketoprofen. Bangladesh Pharmaceutical Journal 23(1): 44-53, 2020

Schizophrenia, a psychiatric disorder, requires long-term treatment; however, large fluctuations in blood drug concentration increase the risk of adverse reactions. We prepared a long-term risperidone (RIS) implantation system that can stabilize RIS release and established in-vitro and in-vivo evaluation systems. Cumulative release, drug loading, and entrapment efficiency were used as evaluation indicators to evaluate the effects of different pore formers, polymer ratios, porogen concentrations, and oil–water ratios on a RIS implant (RIS-IM). We also built a mathematical model to identify the optimized formulation by stepwise regression. We also assessed the crystalline changes, residual solvents, solubility and stability after sterilization, in-vivo polymer degradation, pharmacokinetics, and tissue inflammation in the case of the optimized formulation. The surface of the optimized RIS microspheres was small and hollow with 134.4 ± 3.5 µm particle size, 1.60 SPAN, 46.7% ± 2.3% implant drug loading, and 93.4% entrapment efficiency. The in-vitro dissolution behavior of RIS-IM had zero-order kinetics and stable blood concentration; no lag time was released for over three months. Furthermore, the RIS-IM was not only non-irritating to tissues but also had good biocompatibility and product stability. Long-acting RIS-IMs with microspheres and film coatings can provide a new avenue for treating schizophrenia.

Purpose: In the current study, electrospraying was directed as a novel alternative approach to improve the physicochemical attributes of gliclazide (GLC), as a poorly water-soluble drug, by creating nanocrystalline/amorphous solid dispersions (ESSs). Methods: ESSs were formulated using Eudragit® RS100 and polyethylene glycol (PEG) 6000 as polymeric carriers at various drug: polymer ratios (i.e. 1:5 and 1:10) with different total solution concentrations of 10, 15, and 20% w/v. Morphological, physicochemical, and in-vitro release characteristics of the developed formulations were assessed. Furthermore, GLC dissolution behaviors from ESSs were fitted to various models in order to realize the drug release mechanism. Results: Field emission scanning electron microscopy analyses revealed that the size and morphology of the ESSs were affected by the drug: polymer ratios and solution concentrations. The polymer ratio augmentation led to increase in the particle size while the solution concentration enhancement yielded in a fiber establishment. Differential scanning calorimetry and powder X-ray diffraction investigations demonstrated that the ESSs were present in an amorphous state. Furthermore, the in vitro drug release studies depicted that the samples prepared employing PEG 6000 as carrier enhanced the dissolution rate and the model that appropriately fitted the release behavior of ESSs was Weibull model, where demonstrating a Fickian diffusion as the leading release mechanism. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy results showed a probability of complexation or hydrogen bonding, development between GLC and the polymers in the solid state. Conclusion: Hence the electrospraying system avails the both nanosizing and amorphization advantages, therefore, it can be efficiently applied to formulating of ESSs of BCS Class II drugs.

The aim of the present study was to formulate solid dispersion (SD) of Mesalamine to enrich the aqueous solubility and dissolution rate. Mesalamine is used in the management of acute ulcerative colitis and for the prevention of relapse of active ulcerative colitis. In the present study, Solid dispersion of Mesalamine was prepared by Fusion and Solvent evaporation method with different polymers. SD’s were characterized by % practical yield, drug content, Solubility, FT-IR, PXRD (Powder X- ray diffractometry), SEM (Scanning electron microscopy), in vitro dissolution studies and Stability studies. The percent drug release of prepared solid dispersion of Mesalamine by fusion and solid dispersion method (FM47, FM67, SE47 and SE67) in 1:7 ratio was found 81.36±0.41, 86.29±0.64, 82.45±0.57and 87.25±1.14 respectively. The aqueous solubility and percent drug release of solid dispersion of Mesalamine by both methods was significantly increased. The PXRD demonstrated that there was a significant decrease in crystallinity of pure drug present in the solid dispersions, which resulted in an increased aqueous solubility and dissolution rate of Mesalamine.The significant increase in aqueous solubility and dissolution rate of Mesalamine was observed in solid dispersion as the crystallinity of the drug decreased, absence of aggregation and agglomeration, increased wetability and good dispersibility after addition of PEG 4000 and PEG 6000.

Solubility of phytochemicals is a major concern for drug delivery, permeability, and their biological response. However, advancements in the novel formulation technologies have been helping to overcome these challenges. The applications of these newer technologies are easy for commercialization and high therapeutic outcomes compared to conventional formulations. Considering these facts, the present study is aimed to prepare a silymarin-loaded eutectic mixture with three different ratios of Polyvinylpyrrolidone K30 (PVP K30) and evaluating their anti-inflammatory, and hepatoprotective effects. The preliminary phytochemical and characterization of silymarin, physical mixture, and solid dispersions suggested and successfully confirmed the formation of solid dispersion of silymarin with PVP K30. It was found that the solubility of silymarin was increased by 5-fold compared to pure silymarin. Moreover, the in vitro dissolution displayed that 83% of silymarin released within 2 h with 2.8-fold increase in dissolution rate compared to pure silymarin. Also, the in vivo study suggested that the formulation significantly reduced the carbon tetrachloride- ( 0.8620 ± 0.05034 ∗ ∗ for 1 : 3 ratio), paracetamol- ( 0.7300 ± 0.01517 ∗ ∗ for 1 : 3 ratio), and ethanol- ( 0.8100 ± 0.04037 ∗ ∗ for 1 : 3 ratio) induced hepatotoxicity in rats. Silymarin solid dispersion was prepared using homogenization methods that have prominent anti-inflammatory effect ( 0.6520 ± 0.008602 ∗ ∗ with 8.33%) in carrageenan-induced rat paw model.

The poor solubility of drug substances in water and their low dissolution rate in aqueous G.I.T fluid often leads to insufficient bioavailability. As per Biopharmaceutical Classification System (BCS), Olmesartan belongs to the class-II category having poor solubility and high permeability. Since only dissolved drug can pass the gastrointestinal membrane, the proper solubility of the drug is ultimately desired. Its oral bioavailability is 26%. Hence, an attempt was made to enhance its solubility by formulating solid dispersions using different techniques viz., Melting, Kneading, Co-precipitation, Solvent evaporation and Physical mixing etc., Drug and carrier (Urea) in different ratios like 1: 1, 1: 2, 1: 3 and 1:4 were used for formulating solid dispersions. The compatibility of the drug with the carrier was checked by FTIR studies, these results revealed that there was no interaction between them. The angle of repose, bulk density, tapped density; Carr’s index and Hausner ratio were calculated for the micrometric characterization of all the solid dispersions. The drug content was found to be high and uniform in all formulations. The prepared Solid dispersion SEM4 (1:4) showed minimal wetting time of 13 seconds compared with the other formulations. In vitro dissolution, release studies in Phosphate buffer pH of 6.8 revealed that the prepared solid dispersions showed faster drug release compared with the pure drug.  The in vitro dissolution profile showed ascendency on increasing the carrier concentration
