The poorly water soluble drugs tend to have low bioavailability and this can be improved by several methods. Solid dispersion is a promising formulation approach to improve solubility and dissolution and ultimately oral bioavailability of these drugs. The aim of this study was to prepare and characterize solid dispersion of anti-diabetic glimepiride, a BCS class II drug, with the hydrophilic carrier PVP K30 by solvent evaporation and microwave induced fusion methods. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X–ray powder diffractometry (XRD) and differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) were used to evaluate the physical state of the drug. The solid dispersions were also evaluated for drug content, solubility and dissolution studies. Solid dispersions prepared by solvent evaporation method were showed maximum enhancement of solubility and dissolution in comparison to that prepared by other method.

In recent decades, solid dispersions have been demonstrated as an effective approach for improving the bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs, as have solid dispersion techniques that include the application of nanotechnology. Many studies have reported on the ability to change drug crystallinity and molecular interactions to enhance the dissolution rate of solid dispersions using hydrophilic carriers. However, numerous studies have indicated that insoluble carriers are also promising excipients in solid dispersions. In this report, an overview of solid dispersion strategies involving insoluble carriers has been provided. In addition to the role of solubility and dissolution enhancement, the perspectives of the use of these polymers in controlled release solid dispersions have been classified and discussed. Moreover, the compatibility between methods and carriers and between drug and carrier is mentioned. In general, this report on solid dispersions using insoluble carriers could provide a specific approach and/or a selection of these polymers for further formulation development and clinical applications.

Dispersion Technique

The main objective of the current study was to formulate poorly water soluble drug Spirinolactone by using solid dispersion technique in order to achieve a better dissolution rate which would further help in enhancing oral bioavailability. Solid dispersions were prepared using two methods; solvent method and fusion method. Solid dispersion was prepared by using polymers, such as Hydroxy propylymethyl cellulose (HPMC 6cp), Hydroxy propyl cellulose (HPC), Sodium carboxymethylcellulose (Na-CMC), Povidone K12, Povidone K30, Poloxamer 407. Solid dispersions containing Spironolactone with HPC (96.81%), HPMC 6cp (93.05%), Poloxamer 407 (90.84%) and Na-CMC (89.93%) provided higher release rate than the release rate of solid dispersion containing only Spironolactone (35.27%), and Spironolactone with Povidone K12 (76.17%), Povidone K30 (67.92%). So the present study revealed that the solid dispersion may be an ideal means of drug delivery system for poorly water soluble drugs. Further study in this field was required to establish these drug delivery systems so that in future it can be used effectively in commercial basis.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/sjps.v4i2.7776S. J.

Flupirtine is an amino pyridine derivative that functions as a centrally acting non-opioid, non-steroidal analgesic. It is a selective neuronal potassium channel opener that also has NMDA receptor antagonist properties. Its muscle relaxant properties make it popular for back pain and other orthopedics uses. In the present investigation, recently developed mixed hydrotropic solid dispersion technology precludes the use of organic solvent and also decreases the individual concentration of hydrotropic agents, simultaneously decreasing their toxic potential. Mixed-hydrotropic solubilisation technique is the experience to increase the solubility of poorly water soluble drugs in the aqueous solution containing blends of hydrotropic agents, which may give synergistic enhancement effect on solubility of poorly water-soluble drugs and to reduce concentrations of each individual hydrotropic agent to minimize their toxic effects due to high concentration of hydrotropic agents. The Flupirtine loaded solid dispersion was prepared by a solvent evaporation technique using sodium benzoate and a niacinamide hydrotropic mixture. The prepared solid dispersions were valuated regarding their solubility, mean particle size, in-vitro drug release. The prepared solid dispersions were found very stable (chemically). The superior dissolution rate due to its reduced particle size may have contributed to the increased oral bioavailability. This study demonstrated that mixed-solvency may be an alternative approach for poorly soluble drugs to improve their solubility and oral bioavailability.

The oral bioavailability enhancement of poorly water-soluble medicaments is still one of the most complicated aspects of the formulation development. Various approaches are currently available for solubility and rate of dissolution enhancement such as salt formation, solubilization and reduction of particle size, each with its own limitations and advantages. Solid dispersion is one of the most suitable approaches for the formulation development of poorly water-soluble drugs. The popularity of solid dispersion is evident from the increasing number of patent applications and patents granted in this field during recent years. This article reviews the various approaches for the preparation of solid dispersion such as a solvent melting, hot-melt extrusion method, solvent evaporation method, cryogenic processing approaches etc. from the perspective of patents filed or granted for these techniques. Some of the aspects taken into account before the preparation of solid dispersions are carrier selection and physicchemical testing along with an insight into the molecular arrangement of medicaments in solid dispersion. The manuscript further highlights various commercial patented technology platforms such as Solumertm, Hovione and Kinetisol which are based on the concept of solid dispersions.

Tablet is found to be the most popular dosage form among all existing dosage form. However, in certain occurrences as a result of the huge size of dosage forms, and in the uncooperative, pediatric and dysphasia patients, it might make a few problems, to avoid this issues, another type of dosage form is created, which is known as fast dissolving tablet or mouth dissolving tablet. These are the high level dosage form which breaks down within seconds when placed on the toungue. Mouth dissolving tablets have become impressive consideration as a better option in contrast to others because of better convenience to patients. This review discusses the method of preparation, properties, mechanisms; capsules to be incorporated inside the mouth dissolving pill and evaluation of the drugs are emphasized. The solid dispersion is one of the established solubilization techniques for poorly water-soluble drugs. It is basically the interaction between drug and polymer, and hence it is found to be the determining factor in its design and performance. This review additionally summarizes our knowledge on solid dispersions both in the solid as well as liquid state.

Abstract: The poor solubility of rutin leads to poor bioavailability. The present study is aimed to increase the solubility and bioavailability of rutin using solid dispersion technique. The solid dispersions of rutin were prepared by spray-dried method using β-CD, HPMC E6, HPMC E15, PVP K30, SLS, poloxamer 188 and Tween 80 as carriers. The interaction of rutin with the carriers was evaluated by using methods such as dissolved measurement, Fourier-transformation infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The optimization of formulation was carried out by using Central Composite Face design. Independent variables include PVP K30/rutin ratio, Tween 80/rutin ratio, inlet air temperature, and feed flow rate. Dependent variables are the dissolution and product yield. The optimized preparation conditions for rutin solid dispersions were obtained as PVP K30: rutin at a ratio of 5.77, Tween 80: rutin at a ratio of 0.14, inlet temperature of 110.05, flow rate of 1370.9 ml per hour. The results of this study indicate that the solid dispersion of rutin increases significantly the dissolution of rutin in comparison with rutin. The results of the DSC and XRD studies prove the state transition of rutin from crystalline to amorphous. Keywords Rutin, solid dispersion, spray drying, PVP K30, dissolution.

Background:: An increase in poorly water-soluble drugs makes the design of drug delivery systems challenging. Methods:: Currently, a number of prospective solid dispersions have been investigated with potential applications for delivering a variety of poorly water-soluble drugs. A number of traditional solid dispersions and modifiedsolid dispersions offer attractive advantages in the fabrication, design and development of those drugs for effective therapeutics. Results:: Although traditional solid dispersions can produce a higher release rate, resulting in higher bioavailability compared to conventional dosage forms, this method is not always a promising approach. Modified-solid dispersion has demonstrated both the ability of its polymers to transform drug crystals into amorphous forms and molecular interactivity, thereby improving drug dissolution rate and bioavailability, especially with tough drugs. However, the classification of modified-solid dispersion, which guides the selection of the right strategy in solid dispersion preparation, remains ill-defined. Conclusions:: This review focused on effective strategies in using additives in solid dispersion for improving drug bioavailability.

Enhancement of solubility, dissolution rate and bioavailability of the drug is a very challenging task in drug development, nearly 40% of the new chemical entities currently being discovered are poorly water soluble drugs. The solubility behaviour of the drugs remains one of the most challenging aspects in formulation development. This results in important products not reaching the market or not achieving their full potential. Solid dispersion is one of the techniques adopted for the formulation of such drugs and various methods are used for the preparation of solid dispersion. Solid dispersion is generally prepared with a drug which is having poor aqueous solubility and hydrophilic carrier. This article review various methods and concept of solid dispersion, criteria for drug selection, advantage and disadvantage, characterization, and application.
