Risperidone (RSP) is an atypical antipsychotic drug used in treating schizophrenia, behavioral, and psychological symptoms of dementia and irritability associated with autism. The drug substance is practically insoluble in water and exhibits high lipophilicity. It also presents incompatibilities with pharmaceutical excipients such as magnesium stearate, lactose, and cellulose microcrystalline. RSP encapsulation by randomly methylated β-cyclodextrin (RM-β-CD) was performed in order to enhance drug solubility and stability and improve its biopharmaceutical profile. The inclusion complex formation was evaluated using thermal methods, powder X-ray diffractometry (PXRD), universal-attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (UATR-FTIR), UV spectroscopy, and saturation solubility studies. The 1:1 stoichiometry ratio and the apparent stability constant of the inclusion complex were determined by means of the phase solubility method. The compatibility between the supramolecular adduct and pharmaceutical excipients starch, anhydrous lactose, magnesium stearate, and cellulose microcrystalline was studied employing thermoanalytical tools (TG-thermogravimetry/DTG-derivative thermogravimetry/HF-heat flow) and spectroscopic techniques (UATR-FTIR, PXRD). The compatibility study reveals that there are no interactions between the supramolecular adduct with starch, magnesium stearate, and cellulose microcrystalline, while incompatibility with anhydrous lactose is observed even under ambient conditions. The supramolecular adduct of RSP with RM-β-CD represents a valuable candidate for further research in developing new formulations with enhanced bioavailability and stability, and the results of this study allow a pertinent selection of three excipients that can be incorporated in solid dosage forms.

The influence of excipients on the stability of sodium levothyroxine pentahydrate (LTSS) under ambient conditions and thermal stress was evaluated. Since LTSS is a synthetic hormone with a narrow therapeutic index, the interactions of LTSS with excipients can lead to a drastic diminution of therapeutic activity. Ten commonly used pharmaceutical excipients with different roles in solid formulations were chosen as components for binary mixtures containing LTSS, namely, starch, anhydrous lactose, D-mannitol, D-sorbitol, gelatin, calcium lactate pentahydrate, magnesium stearate, methyl 2-hydroxyethyl cellulose (Tylose), colloidal SiO2 (Aerosil) and talc. As investigational tools, universal attenuated total reflectance- Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy UATR-FTIR spectroscopy and thermal analysis were chosen and used as follows: UATR-FTIR spectra were drawn up for samples kept under ambient conditions, while thermoanalytical tools (TG/DTG/HF data) were chosen to evaluate the inducing of interactions during thermal stress. The corroboration of instrumental results led to the conclusion that LTSS is incompatible with lactose, mannitol and sorbitol, and these excipients should not be considered in the development of new generic solid formulations.

Alogliptin is a new dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor for oral diabetes care. The present study aims to evaluate the compatibility of alogliptin benzoate with the extensively used pharmaceutical excipients for solid dosage form. This can be achieved by applying Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) techniques together with Fourier-Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) as paired technique to aid in the interpretation of outcome. Chosen excipients were Cross carmellose sodium, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate, sodium starch glycolate, and pregelatinised starch. Results illustrated that drug was compatible with all the excipients except magnesium stearate where a slight degree of physical interaction was observed but mass loss due to degradation was not hastened in TGA. FT-IR study lined out any chemical change of drug with magnesium stearate. These results would be valuable for formulation development of the film coated tablets of alogliptin benzoate.

In this paper, the acetylcholinesterase inhibitor drug tacrine was investigated by two complementary instrumental techniques, namely infrared spectroscopy and thermal analysis, as pure drug and in solid binary mixtures with nine excipients frequently used in the pharmaceutical industry, namely starch, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone K30, fumed silica (Aerosil), talc, anhydrous lactose, magnesium stearate, mannitol and calcium lactate pentahydrate. The corroboration of obtained data by the two complementary methods confirmed the incompatibility of this drug with anhydrous lactose, mannitol, magnesium stearate and calcium lactate under both ambient conditions and thermal stress, and thermally induced interactions between tacrine and silica. In the development of new generic solid formulations, four of the investigated excipients (i.e., starch, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone K30 and talc) can be used, since they are compatible with tacrine under ambient conditions as well as under thermal stress.

The content of this investigation was to study the influence of β-cyclodextrin and hydroxy propyl-β-cyclodextrin complexation on enhancement of solubility and dissolution rate of isradipine. Based on preliminary phase solubility studies, solid complexes prepared by freeze drying method in 1:1 molar ratio were selected and characterized by DSC for confirmation of complex formation. Prepared solid dispersions were evaluated for drug content, solubility and in vitro dissolution. The physical stability of optimized formulation was studied at refrigerated and room temperature for 2 months. Solid state characterization of optimized complex performed by DSC and XRD studies.  Dissolution rate of isradipine was increased compared with pure drug and more with HP-β-CD inclusion complex than β-CD. DSC and XRD analyzes that drug was in amorphous form, when the drug was incorporated as isradipine β-CD and HP-β-CD inclusion complex. Stability studies resulted in low or no variations in the percentage of complexation efficiency suggesting good stability of molecular complexes. The results conclusively demonstrated that the enhancement of solubility and dissolution rate of isradipine by drug-cyclodextrin complexation was achieved.

Aqueous solubility is a critical factor for optimum drug delivery. In the present study, we investigated the potential of drug-cyclodextrin complexation as an approach for improving the solubility and bioavailability of famotidine, an H2-receptor antagonist and acid reducing drug which has poor solubility and bioavailability. Solubility improvement of drug by β-cyclodextrin was done by simple complexation approach using physical, kneading and co-precipitation methods and compared with physical mixture. Phase solubility profile indicated that the solubility of famotidine was significantly increased in presence of β-cyclodextrin and shows a linear graph with β-cyclodextrin indicating formation of inclusion complexes in a 1:1 molar ratio. β-Cyclodextrin-famotidine mixture have maximum stability constant 1477.6 M-1. The inclusion complex ratio 1:1 of kneading mixture was selected based on drug release profile and compared with physical mixture. Further characterization was done by  using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to identify the physicochemical interaction between drug and carrier and its effect on dissolution. Dissolution rate studies for selected inclusion complex was performed in 0.1 N HCl (pH 1.2), phosphate buffer (pH 7.5) and distilled water (pH 6.8) and compared these to pure drug profile which was found to be 2.34 fold increase in distilled water, 1.83 fold in HCl and 2.01 fold in phosphate buffer (pH 7.5). These results suggest that the kneaded complex of famotidine with β-cyclodextrin as hydrophilic complexation agent can substantially enhance the solubility and dissolution rate. Such complex has promising potential to improve the bioavailability of famotidine.

Ezetimibe, the antihyperlipidemic drug of poor bioavailability was complexed with native and derivatized cyclodextrins.The complexes were characterized in terms stability, stoichiometry and structure using various 1D and 2D solution NMR spectroscopic techniques. The complexes were found to be of moderate stability (logK[3). The least stable inclusion complex is formed with b-cyclodextrin, while the ezetimibe-methylated-b--cyclodextrin has a 7-fold higher stability. The results can be useful to improve the poor water-solubility and the concomitant bioavailability of ezetimibe.

The main objective of the present study was to enhance the solubility and dissolution rate of poorly water soluble aceclofenac using its solid dispersion with β-cyclodextrin. FTIR and DSC study was carried out to find out any incompatibility. The phase solubility of drug was carried out in 1, 2, 5, and 10% of β-cyclodextrin in distilled water. Kneading method and solvent evaporation method was use to prepared solid dispersion of aceclofenac and β-cyclodextrin. Different evaluation tests like solubility study in different solvents, PXRD and in vitro dissolution study of aceclofenac- β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex were carried out. The overall finding indicated that β-cyclodextrin is a desirable water soluble carrier, that helps in increasing solubility of drug. Due to its structural feature, β-cyclodextrin forms a good inclusion complex that decreases contact angle of drug with water molecules by increasing wetting properties. Hence, it can be concluded that, β-cyclodextrin is better water soluble carrier molecule in terms of its compatibility and increasing solubility behavior of poorly water soluble drug aceclofenac.

This work aimed at improving the water solubility of Ginsenoside (G)-Re by forming an inclusion complex. The solubility parameters of G-Re in alpha (α), beta (β), and gamma (γ) cyclodextrin (CD) were investigated. The phase solubility profiles were all classified as AL-type that indicated the 1:1 stoichiometric relationship with the stability constants Ks which were 22 M−1 (α-CD), 612 M−1 (β-CD), and 14,410 M−1 (γ-CD), respectively. Molecular docking studies confirmed the results of phase solubility with the binding energy of −4.7 (α-CD), −5.10 (β-CD), and −6.70 (γ-CD) kcal/mol, respectively. The inclusion complex (IC) of G-Re was prepared with γ-CD via the water-stirring method followed by freeze-drying. The successful preparation of IC was confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In-vivo absorption studies were carried out by LC-MS/MS. Dissolution rate of G-Re was increased 9.27 times after inclusion, and the peak blood concentration was 2.7-fold higher than that of pure G-Re powder. The relative bioavailability calculated from the ratio of Area under the curve AUC0–∞ of the inclusion to pure G-Re powder was 171%. This study offers the first report that describes G-Re’s inclusion into γ-CD, and explored the inclusion complex’s mechanism at the molecular level. The results indicated that the solubility could be significantly improved as well as the bioavailability, implying γ-CD was a very suitable inclusion host for complex preparation of G-Re.

Compatibility studies between active drugs and excipients are substantial in the pharmaceutical technology. Thermal analysis has been extensively used to obtain information about drug-excipient interactions and to perform pre-formulation studies of pharmaceutical dosage forms. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the compatibility of the valsartan (VALS) with pharmaceutical excipients of common use including diluents, binders, disintegrants, lubricants and solubilising agents. Thermogravimetry (TG), derivative thermogravimetry (DTG), but especially differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used for a first screening to find small variations in peak temperature and/or their associated enthalpy for six drug/excipient mixtures (starch, cross caramelose sodique, microcrystalline cellulose 102, povidone K30, lactose monohydrate and magnesium stearate), which indicate some degree of interaction. Additional methods using Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) confirmed the incompatibility of VALS with starch, povidone K30, lactose monohydrate and magnesium stearate. Those excipients should be avoided in the development of solid dosage forms.

The paper presents the results of a study of the stability of aqueous solutions of inclusion complexes of hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin with diisopropylphenol in various systems by the Higuchi-Connors phase solubility method. The phase solubility profiles for each system corresponding to the AN type are determined graphically, and the stability constants of the resulting inclusion complexes are calculated. An aqueous solution containing 0.2 % Tween 80 and 0.2 % mannitol was selected as the optimal condition for obtaining the hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex with diisopropylphenol.
