Solid dispersion was prepared by solvent evaporation technique and it is optimized by using different of polymer and lipid ratios. The prepared solid dispersions were evaluated for solubility study, assay and in vitro dissolution study. The solid state property was characterized by differential scanning Calorimetry(DSC). The solubility and dissolution rate were found significantly increased in these solid dispersion systems compared with pure drug alone. The highest improvement of solubility and dissolution rate was found with PEG 6000 and 45 mg phosphatidycholine. DSC studies of solid dispersions confirmed the there is no interaction between drug with excipients. This is attributed to improve bioavailability due to enhancement in rate and extent of drug release. The preparation of solid dispersion is a promising strategy to improve the solubility and dissolution of drug of low solubility and thereby bioavailability of the drug. The solvent evaporation method could be considered as a simple method for preparation of solid dispersion within a shorter period of times.

This volume offers a comprehensive guide on the theory and practice of amorphous solid dispersions (ASD) for handling challenges associated with poorly soluble drugs. In twenty-three inclusive chapters, the book examines thermodynamics and kinetics of the amorphous state and amorphous solid dispersions, ASD technologies, excipients for stabilizing amorphous solid dispersions such as polymers, and ASD manufacturing technologies, including spray drying, hot melt extrusion, fluid bed layering and solvent-controlled micro-precipitation technology (MBP). Each technology is illustrated by specific case studies. In addition, dedicated sections cover analytical tools and technologies for characterization of amorphous solid dispersions, the prediction of long-term stability, and the development of suitable dissolution methods and regulatory aspects. The book also highlights future technologies on the horizon, such as supercritical fluid processing, mesoporous silica, KinetiSol®, and the use of non-salt-forming organic acids and amino acids for the stabilization of amorphous systems. Amorphous Solid Dispersions: Theory and Practice is a valuable reference to pharmaceutical scientists interested in developing bioavailable and therapeutically effective formulations of poorly soluble molecules in order to advance these technologies and develop better medicines for the future.

Recent advances in novel drug delivery systems (NDDS) aim to enhance safety and efficacy of drug molecules by formulating a convenient dosage form for administration and to achieve better patient compliance. One such approach was fast dissolving tablets which have gained acceptance and popularity in the recent time. Several pharmaceutical industries prepared fast dissolving tablets by direct compression technique by selecting suitable super disintegrants. Direct compression technique offers important advantages such as increased output, reduced cost, less machinery and improved drug stability compared to wet granulation method.The aim of the work is to enhance the solubility, dissolution rate and oral bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs lovastatin and simvastatin by formulating them as solid dispersions using various techniques with PEG-6000 as a carrier and subsequent preparation of fast dissolving tablets with the prepared solid dispersions using different concentrations of super disintegrants and comparing them with that of the marketed product.

Amorphous ternary solid dispersion has become one of the strategies commonly used for improving the solubility and bioavailability of poorly water soluble drugs. Such multicomponent solid dispersion can be obtained by different techniques, this chapter provides an overview of ternary solid dispersion by co-milling method from the perspectives of physico-chemical characteristics in vitro and in vivo performance. A considerable improvement of solubility was obtained for many active pharmaceutical ingredients (e.g., Ibuprofen, Probucol, Gliclazid, Fenofibrate, Ibrutinib and Naproxen) and this was correlated to the synergy of multiple factors (hydrophilicity enhancement, particle size reduction, drug-carrier interactions, anti-plasticizing effect and complexation efficiency). This enhanced pharmacokinetic properties and bioavailability of these drug molecules (1.49 to 15-folds increase in plasma drug concentration). A particular focus was accorded to compare the ternary and binary system including Ibuprofen and highlighting the contribution of thermal and spectral characterization techniques. The addition of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP K30), a low molecular weight molecule, into the binary solid dispersion (Ibuprofen/Œ≤-cyclodextrin), leads to a 1.5,Äì2 folds increase in the drug intrinsic dissolution rate only after 10¬†min. This resulted from physical stabilization of amorphous Ibuprofen by reducing its molecular mobility and inhibiting its recristallization even under stress conditions (75% RH and T¬†=¬†40¬∞C for six months).

Bicalutamide is poorly soluble drug which is non-steroidal androgen having pKa 12. Aqueous in vitro solubility of bicalutamide is low at 50 g/mL at pH 7 and 37 C. The drug exhibits low bioavailability related to its poor water solubility. Therefore, bicalutamide bioavailability can be improved by increasing its solubility. Solid dispersion technique is most effective technique to improve solubility of drug. Solid dispersions of bicalutamide were prepared by using solvent evaporation technique using HPMC and surfactant like SLS. Solubilities were calculated by using In-vitro dissolution technique. 1:4 drug: HPMC ratio was found efficient with 2% SLS concentration. Using this solid dispersion tablet was formulated and evaluated. In evaluation it was found that Bicalutamide showing 97.251% release at 120 min which is higher than standard drug."
