The nanoscale formulation of amorphous drugs represents a highly viable supersaturating drug-delivery system for enhancing the bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs. Herein we present a new formulation of a nanoscale amorphous drug in the form of a drug-polyelectrolyte nanoparticle complex (or nanoplex), where the nanoplex is held together by the combination of a drug-polyelectrolyte electrostatic interaction and an interdrug hydrophobic interaction. The nanoplex is prepared by a truly simple, green process that involves the ambient mixing of drug and polyelectrolyte (PE) solutions in the presence of salt. Nanoplexes of poorly soluble acidic (i.e., ibuprofen and curcumin) and basic (i.e., ciprofloxacin) drugs are successfully prepared using biocompatible poly(allylamine hydrochloride) and dextran sulfate as the PE, respectively. The roles of salt, drug, and PE in nanoplex formation are examined from ternary phase diagrams of the drug-PE complex, from which the importance of the drug's charge density and hydrophobicity, as well as the PE ionization at different pH values, is recognized. Under the optimal conditions, the three nanoplexes exhibit high drug loadings of ~80-85% owing to the high drug complexation efficiency (~90-96%), which is achieved by keeping the feed charge ratio of the drug to PE below unity (i.e., excess PE). The nanoplex sizes are ~300-500 nm depending on the drug hydrophobicity. The nanoplex powders remain amorphous after 1 month of storage, indicating the high stability owed to the PE's high glass-transition temperature. FT-IR analysis shows that functional groups of the drug are conserved upon complexation. The nanoplexes are capable of generating prolonged supersaturation upon dissolution with precipitation inhibitors. The supersaturation level depends on the saturation solubility of the native drugs, where the lower the saturation solubility, the higher the supersaturation level. The solubility of curcumin as the least-soluble drug is magnified 9-fold upon its transformation to the nanoplex, and the supersaturated condition is maintained for 5 h.  相似文献

An amorphous solid (glass) may crystallize faster at the surface than through the bulk, making surface crystallization a mechanism of failure for amorphous pharmaceuticals and other materials. An ultrathin coating of gold or polyelectrolytes inhibited the surface crystallization of amorphous indomethacin (IMC), an anti-inflammatory drug and model organic glass. The gold coating (10 nm) was deposited by sputtering, and the polyelectrolyte coating (3-20 nm) was deposited by an electrostatic layer-by-layer assembly of cationic poly(dimethyldiallyl ammonium chloride) (PDDA) and anionic sodium poly(styrenesulfonate) (PSS) in aqueous solution. The coating also inhibited the growth of existing crystals. The inhibition was strong even with one layer of PDDA. The polyelectrolyte coating still permitted fast dissolution of amorphous IMC and improved its wetting and flow. The finding supports the view that the surface crystallization of amorphous IMC is enabled by the mobility of a thin layer of surface molecules, and this mobility can be suppressed by a coating of only a few nanometers. This technique may be used to stabilize amorphous drugs prone to surface crystallization, with the aqueous coating process especially suitable for drugs of low aqueous solubility.  相似文献

Encapsulating a drug molecule into a water‐reactive metal–organic framework (MOF) leads to amorphous drug confined within the nanoscale pores. Rapid release of drug occurs upon hydrolytic decomposition of MOF in dissolution media. Application to improve dissolution and solubility for the hydrophobic small drug molecules curcumin, sulindac, and triamterene is demonstrated. The drug@MOF composites exhibit significantly enhanced dissolution and achieves high supersaturation in simulated gastric and/or phosphate buffer saline media. This combination strategy where MOF inhibits crystallization of the amorphous phase and then releases drug upon MOF irreversible structural collapse represents a novel and generalizable approach for drug delivery of poorly soluble compounds while overcoming the traditional weakness of amorphous drug delivery: physical instability of the amorphous form.  相似文献

The influence of microwave technology on the in vitro dissolution rate and in vivo antihyperglycemic activity of a poorly water soluble drug, repaglinide (RG) was studied. Solid dispersions were prepared by conventional fusion method and microwave method using poloxamer 188. The dispersions were characterized by solubility study, dissolution study, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Microwave generated solid dispersions exhibited remarkable improvement in solubility and dissolution rate compared to that of pure RG. Results of DSC, XRD and SEM study showed conversion of crystalline form of RG to amorphous form. In vivo studies revealed that the microwave generated solid dispersion showed significant improvements in antihyperglycemic activity as compared to RG alone, thus confirming the advantage of improved pharmacological activity of RG by microwave method. In conclusion, microwave method could be considered as simple, efficient and solvent free promising alternative method to prepare solid dispersion of poorly water soluble drug RG with significant enhancement in solubility, dissolution rate and antihyperglycemic activity.  相似文献

Cocrystals of the poorly soluble antifungal drug cis-itraconazole (1) with 1,4-dicarboxylic acids have been prepared. The crystal structure of the succinic acid cocrystal with 1 was determined to be a trimer by single-crystal X-ray. The trimer is comprised of two molecules of 1 oriented in antiparallel fashion to form a pocket with a triazole at either end. The extended succinic acid molecule fills the pocket, bridging the triazole groups through hydrogen-bonding interactions rather than interacting with the more basic piperazine nitrogens. The solubility and dissolution rate of some of the cocrystals are approximately the same as those of the amorphous drug in the commercial formulation and are much higher than those for the crystalline free base. The results suggest that cocrystals of drug molecules have the possibility of achieving the higher oral bioavailability common for amorphous forms of water-insoluble drugs while maintaining the long-term chemical and physical stability that crystal forms provide.  相似文献

The objective of present work was to enhance the solubility and bioavailability of poorly aqueous soluble drug Irbesartan (IBS). The solid dispersions were prepared by spray drying method using low viscosity grade HPMC E5LV. Prepared solid dispersions were characterized by dissolution study, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction studies (XRD). Results of the SEM, DSC and XRD study showed the conversion of crystalline form of IBS to amorphous form. The dissolution rate was remarkably increased in case of solid dispersion compared to pure IBS. Solubility and stability of solid dispersion was increased due to surfactant and wetting property, slowing devitrification and having anti-plasticization effect of HPMC E5LV. In vivo studies were performed in healthy rabbits (New Zealand grey) and compared with plain IBS. Solid dispersions showed increase in relative bioavailability than the plain IBS suspension. In conclusion, the prepared solid dispersions showed remarkable increase in solubility, dissolution rate and hence bioavailability of poorly water soluble drug Irbesartan.  相似文献

In the present study, the solubilizing and amorphizing properties of Valdecoxib (a poorly water soluble anti inflammatory drug) with low molecular weight chitosan (a polymer), have been investigated. Binary systems of varying drug/polymer ratios were prepared using different techniques (physical mixing, co-grinding, kneading) and were tested for dissolution. Drug carrier interactions were investigated in both the liquid and solid state, by phase solubility analysis, differential scanning calorimetry, powder X-ray diffractrometry, FT-IR spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The solubility of the drug increased with increasing polymer concentration showing A(N) type phase solubility diagram. Differential scanning calorimetry, powder X-ray diffractrometry and scanning electron microscopic studies of binary systems suggested generation of amorphous form of drug (in kneading and co ground mixtures). IR spectroscopy revealed the presence of hydrogen bonding in kneading and co ground mixtures. Drug dissolution was improved with increasing the polymer concentration in the mixture (Kneaded>co ground>physical mixture), which was attributed to the amorphonization and/or decreased drug crystallinity, size and polymer wetting effect. Enhanced dissolution combined with its direct compression feasibility and anti ulcerogenic action results in low molecular weight chitosan for developing fast release oral solid dosage forms of valdecoxib.  相似文献

Surfactants are commonly used to increase the solubility of poorly water soluble drugs but the interactions between drug and surfactant can be complex and quantitative relationships can be hard to derive. One approach is to quantify the thermodynamics of interaction and relate these parameters to known solubility or dissolution rate enhancement data. Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) was used to measure the enthalpy and free energy of transfer of a model drug (simvastatin) to a number of surfactant (SDS, HTAB, SDCH and Brij 35) micelles. These data were then compared with the solubility enhancements determined for each surfactant using HPLC assays. As expected, there was correlation between the free energy of transfer for the drug to each surfactant and the solubility enhancement of that surfactant. Although the data set is limited, the results suggest that ITC screening of a range of surfactants against a poorly water soluble drug may allow the selection of the best potential solubilising surfactants.  相似文献

The present work describes the effect of PVP on the complexation efficiency of cyclodextrins towards efavirenz, a poorly soluble antiretroviral agent imparting irritating sensation to buccal cavity. The phase solubility study indicates 1:1 stoichiometry for binary and ternary systems. DSC and XRPD revealed complete inclusion only in the lyophilized systems. The ternary systems were autoclaved before being lyophilized for the best results. Proton NMR suggests that the chlorobenzene part of benzoxazinone ring of the drug is involved in inclusion and was confirmed by 2D-COESY. The thermodynamic parameters, indicative of complexation efficiency were calculated calorimetrically by determining the interaction enthalpy of efavirenz with cyclodextrins in the presence and absence of PVP. The value of stability constants increased in the order β-CD?<?HP-β-CD?<?M-β-CD and is still higher in the presence of PVP illustrating the facilitation of the inclusion. Molar enthalpy of interaction of autoclaved solid formulation determined calorimetrically indicated stronger interaction for efavirenz:M-βCD-PVP system (?12.20?kJ/mol) which showed highest solubility and dissolution rate. The in vitro measurement of permeability showed a ten fold increase in the flux for the autoclaved formulation containing efavirenz-M-β-CD-PVP. In conclusion, encapsulation by cyclodextrins increases the solubility and suppresses the oral irritation of efavirenz. PVP further increases the complexation efficiency and decreases the bulk of cyclodextrins.  相似文献

On the basis of the discretely charged sphere model of lysozyme, the release behavior of lysozyme from the branched polyelectrolyte-lysozyme complexation is investigated by adding salt and changing the pH values of the solution. It is found that, with the increase of the salt ionic strength of the solution, the lysozymes are gradually released from the oppositely charged polyelectrolyte as a result of the screening of electrostatic attraction between the two ionic species by adding the salt. Interestingly, there exists a critical salt ionic strength at which all proteins are released from the branched polyelectrolyte, and the polyelectrolyte-protein complexation is broken completely. Beyond the critical value, the increase of the salt ionic strength causes self-association of the proteins released from the branched polyelectrolyte-protein complexation. The self-association of the protein is detrimental in biological systems. By calculating the second virial coefficient, we found that the optimal salt content for the dispersion of proteins coincides with the critical ionic strength, because the second virial coefficient reaches its maximum at the critical ionic strength. Similarly, increasing the pH value of the solution can also release the lysozymes from the polyelectrolyte, because the increase of pH value of the solution changes the charge distribution and net charge of the lysozyme, weakens the attraction between lysozymes mediated by polyelectrolyte, and finally leads to the dissolution of the complexation of branched polyelectrolyte with lysozymes in strong alkaline solution. In addition, by exploring the effect of architecture of the polyelectrolyte on the release behavior of proteins, we found that it is more difficult to release proteins from the branched polyelectrolyte than from the linear polyelectrolyte.  相似文献

Summary: Carboxymethyl Konjac Glucomannan–Chitosan (CKGM‐CS) nanoparticles, which are well dispersed and stable in aqueous solution, were spontaneously prepared under very mild conditions by polyelectrolyte complexation. Investigations of the physicochemical properties of these nanoparticles were undertaken. This study showed that the nanoparticulate system driven by complex formation has potential as an advanced drug‐delivery system for water‐soluble drugs.

The main aim of this study was to enhance the dissolution rate of a poorly water-soluble antioxidant drug, quercetin, by fabricating its nanoparticles, complexes and solid dispersions using evaporative precipitation of nanosuspension (EPN). We studied the influence of the type of antisolvent, drug concentration and solvent to antisolvent ratio on the quercetin particles formed during EPN. With water as antisolvent, the particles were big, irregular and flake type but with benzene or hexane as antisolvent, the particles were smaller and needle type. Smallest particles of 220 nm diameter were achieved with hexane as antisolvent, lowest drug concentration and highest solvent to antisolvent ratio. The relative dissolution values showed that the dissolution rate of the EPN prepared quercetin nanoparticles was much higher than that of the raw drug. Quercetin formed inclusion complexes with β-cyclodextrin, and solid dispersions with polyvinylpyrrolidone and pluronic F127, where quercetin was present in an amorphous form and/or was dispersed at a molecular level. The dissolution rate of quercetin in its complexes and solid dispersions improved significantly from the raw quercetin as indicated by the percent dissolution efficiency. It was interesting to note that at lower carrier concentration, the solid dispersions of quercetin with polyvinylpyrrolidone and pluronic F127 presented better dissolution than its complex with β-cyclodextrin but at higher carrier concentration, there was no significant difference in the dissolution behavior of the three formulations. Using Korsmeyer-Peppas model, diffusion was found to be the main release mechanism.  相似文献

The physicochemical characteristics and oral absorption of a poorly water-soluble drug, K-832, adsorbed onto porous silica (Sylysia 350), were compared with those of K-832 adsorbed onto non-porous silica (Aerosil 200). K-832 and silica were treated with supercritical CO(2) (scCO(2)) to produce K-832-Sylysia 350 and K-832-Aerosil 200 formulations. Scanning electron microscopy, polarizing microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, and differential scanning calorimetry results suggested that K-832 mainly existed in an amorphous state in both formulations. The specific surface area of both formulations was much larger than that of pure K-832 crystals. The dissolution rate of K-832 from both formulations was considerably greater than that from corresponding physical mixtures due to rapid wetting of the hydrophilic carrier surfaces and amorphous state, the dissolution from the K-832-Sylysia 350 formulation being the fastest. In vivo absorption tests on the two formulations indicated no significant differences in their peak concentration (C(max)) and the area under their plasma concentration-time curve (AUC), while the concentrations of K-832 in the K-832-Sylysia 350 formulation were significantly higher than those in the K-832-Aerosil 200 formulation 1 h and 1.5 h after administration of these formulations (p<0.05). This could be attributed to the different dispersion states of K-832 in the formulations due to their different three-dimensional structures (porous and non-porous). In physical stability tests, the amorphous drugs in both formulations were stable at room temperature for at least 14 months. Thus, the absorption of poorly water-soluble drugs could be greatly improved by adsorption onto porous silica using scCO(2).  相似文献

A strategy to incorporate and release anti-cancer drugs of daunorubicin (DNR) and doxorubicin (DOX) in preformed microcapsules is introduced, which is based on charge interaction mechanism. Oppositely charged poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and poly(styrene sulfonate) (PSS) were assembled onto PSS doped-CaCO3 colloidal particles in a layer-by-layer manner to yield core-shell particles. After removal of the carbonate cores, hollow microcapsules with entrapped PSS were fabricated, which showed spontaneous loading ability of positively charged DNR and DOX. The drug loading was confirmed quantitatively by observations under confocal laser scanning microscopy, transmission electron microscopy and scanning force microscopy. Quantification of the drug loading was performed under different conditions, revealing that a larger amount of drugs could be incorporated at higher drug feeding concentrations and higher salt concentrations. However, putting additional polyelectrolyte layers on the microcapsules after core removal resulted in weaker drug loading efficiency. The drug release behaviors from the microcapsules with different layer numbers were studied too, revealing a diffusion controlled release mechanism at the initial stage (4 h).  相似文献

The formation of inclusion complexes with para-sulfonated calix[n]arene (PSC[n]A) was studied for carbamazepine (CBMZ), a poorly water soluble anticonvulsant drug. The effect of PSC[4]A and PSC[6]A on aqueous solubility of carbamazepine was studied extensively. The complete complexation of the drug was achieved after 48 h of shaking with PSC[n]A in water and evaporation of water to get solid complex. The interaction between PSC[n]A and CBMZ in solid state inclusion complexes was accomplished by aqueous phase solubility studies, HPLC, DSC, PXRD, FTIR, UV–Vis, and FT-Raman spectroscopy. The solubility of CBMZ increases as a function of PSC[n]A concentration. The results of the two phase solubility experiments are in good conformity to signify the formation of 1:1 (PSC[6]A:CBMZ) and 2:1 PSC[4]A:CBMZ complexes. The order of dissolution rate of CBMZ is inclusion complex > physical mixture > drug alone. The purpose of this study was to enhance solubility resulting in high dissolution rate and bioavailability of this essentially water insoluble drug.  相似文献

Naringenin, a flavonoid specific to citrus fruits shows a variety of therapeutic effects like anti-inflammatory, anticarcinogenic, and antitumour effects. But it is associated with some limitations like poor water solubility, poor dissolution, lower half-life, and rapid clearance from the body. With the aim of improving amorphous nature, water solubility, and dissolution profile of naringenin and its complexes were prepared with β-cyclodextrin in three different molar ratios (1:1, 1:2, and 1:3) by solvent evaporation method. These complexes were characterized for solubility, drug content, chemical interaction (using FTIR), phase transition behavior (using DSC), crystallinity (using XRPD), surface morphology (using SEM), and in vitro dissolution study. The results were also critically compared with the results obtained from naringenin-phospholipid complexes (from author’s previous study). The prepared complexes showed high drug content (ranging from 69.53 to 84.38 %) and about two fold improvement in water solubility (from 41.81 to 76.31 μg mL?1 in the complex with 1:3 ratio). SEM of the complexes showed irregular and rough surface morphology. FTIR, DSC, and XRPD data confirmed the formation of the complex. Unlike the free naringenin which showed a total of only 48.78 % drug release at the end of 60 min, the complex showed 98.0–100 % in dissolution study. Thus it was concluded that the β-cyclodextrin of naringenin may be of potential use for improving bioavailability of poorly soluble phytoconstituents/herbal drugs. On critical comparison with the phospholipid complex of naringenin both the techniques were found almost equally effective in improving the solubility and the dissolution performance of naringenin in the complex form.  相似文献

Finasteride is a practically insoluble in water drug that belongs to the Class II of the BCS (poor solubility and high permeability). Solid dispersions are solid products consisting of at least two different components, generally a hydrophilic matrix and a hydrophobic drug. Solid dispersions are a successful strategy to improve drug release of poorly water-soluble drugs such as finasteride. Natural cyclodextrins are doughnut-shaped molecules with an internal hydrophobic cavity and a hydrophilic external surface. The lipophilic cavity enables cyclodextrins to form non-covalent inclusion complexes with a wide variety of poorly water-soluble drugs such as finasteride. The aim of this study was to investigate the formation of finasteride:PEG 6000 and finasteride:Kollidon K25 solid dispersions and finasteride:??-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes by solvent evaporation method using a mixture of water:ethanol (1:1). The formation of finasteride:PEG 6000 and finasteride:Kollidon K25 solid dispersions and finasteride:??-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes was investigated and characterized by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), infrared (IR) spectroscopy, and dissolution studies from capsules containing a quantity equivalent to 5 mg of finasteride. The DSC thermograms revealed the transformation of finasteride into the amorphous state in solid dispersions with PEG 6000 and Kollidon K25, and in inclusion complexes with ??-cyclodextrin. The IR spectra demonstrated molecular interaction in solid dispersions of finasteride with PEG 6000, and in inclusion complexes with ??-cyclodextrin. Dissolution rate of solid dispersions and inclusion complexes was significantly greater than that of corresponding physical mixtures and pure drug, indicating that the formation of solid dispersions and inclusion complexes increased the solubility of the poorly soluble drug, finasteride.  相似文献

Solid dispersions are used in pharmaceutical technology in order to improve solubility and/or dissolution kinetics of poorly water soluble drugs [1, 2, 3]. A preliminary study concerning progesterone structure after melting revealed the existence of a drug polymorphism after cooling, and gave the opportunity to specify the manufacturing conditions in order to obtain the stable form of this hormone [4]. In this work, two different types of progesterone solid dispersion have been compared. The first one is obtained by a slow cooling rate of the drug in the presence of polyoxyethylene glycol 6000 and the second one after quenching in the presence of saccharose distearate. DSC and radiocrystallographic studies of the solid dispersions served to specify the nature of the compounds obtained and to characterize the physical structure of the hormone in the solidified melts.  相似文献
