Improving oral bioavailability of drugs those given as solid dosage forms remains a challenge for the formulation scientists due to solubility problems. The dissolution rate could be the rate-limiting process in the absorption of a drug from a solid dosage form of relatively insoluble drugs. Therefore increase in dissolution of poorly soluble drugs by solid dispersion technique presents a challenge to the formulation scientists. Solid dispersion techniques have attracted considerable interest of improving the dissolution rate of highly lipophilic drugs thereby improving their bioavailability by reducing drug particle size, improving wettability and forming amorphous particles. The term solid dispersion refers to a group of solid products consisting of at least two different components, generally a hydrophilic inert carrier or matrix and a hydrophobic drug. This article reviews historical background of solid dispersion technology, limitations, classification, and various preparation techniques with its advantages and disadvantages. This review also discusses the recent advances in the field of solid dispersion technology. Based on the existing results and authors’ reflection, this review give rise to reasoning and suggested choices of carrier or matrix and solid dispersion procedure.

The aim of the present study was to improve the solubility and dissolution rate of a poorly water-soluble drug by a solid dispersion technique, in order to investigate the effect of these polymers on release mechanism from solid dispersions. Diazepam was used as a model drug to evaluate its release characteristics from different matrices. Solid dispersions were prepared by using polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG-6000), HPMC, HPC and Poloxamer in different drug-to-carrier ratios (1:2, 1:4, 1:6, 1:8, 1:10). The solid dispersions were prepared by solvent method. The pure drug and solid dispersions were characterized by in vitro dissolution study. Distilled water was used as dissolution media, 1000 ml of distilled water was used as dissolution medium in each dissolution basket at a temperature of 37°C and a paddle speed of 100 rpm. The very slow dissolution rate was observed for pure Diazepam and the dispersion of the drug in the polymers considerably enhanced the dissolution rate. This can be attributed to improved wettability and dispersibility, as well as decrease of the crystalline and increase of the amorphous fraction of the drug. SEM (Scanning Electron microscope) studies shows that the solid dispersion having a uniform dispersion. Solid dispersions prepared with PEG-6000, Poloxamer showed the highest improvement in wettability and dissolution rate of Diazepam. Solid dispersion containing polymer prepared with solvent method showed significant improvement in the release profile as compared to pure drug, Diazepam.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/icpj.v1i12.12453 International Current Pharmaceutical Journal 2012, 1(12): 423-430

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.

Mouth Dissolving Tablet

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.

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.

This study aimed to improve the solubility and dissolution of aprepitant, a drug with poor aqueous solubility, using a phosphatidylcholine (PC)-based solid dispersion system. When fabricating the PC-based solid dispersion, we employed mesoporous microparticles, as an adsorbent, and disintegrants to improve the sticky nature of PC and dissolution of aprepitant, respectively. The solid dispersions were prepared by a solvent evaporation technique and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry, and X-ray powder diffraction. The FTIR results showed that aprepitant interacted with the PC carrier by both hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces that can also be observed in the interaction between aprepitant and polymer carriers. The solid dispersions fabricated with only PC were not sufficient to convert the crystallinity of aprepitant to an amorphous state, whereas the formulations that included adsorbent and disintegrant successfully changed that of aprepitant to an amorphous state. Both the solubility and dissolution of aprepitant were considerably enhanced in the PC-based solid dispersions containing adsorbent and disintegrant compared with those of pure aprepitant and polymer-based solid dispersions. Therefore, these results suggest that our PC-based solid dispersion system is a promising alternative to conventional formulations for poorly water-soluble drugs, such as aprepitant.

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.
