Enhanced release of solid dispersions of etodolac in polyethylene glycol

This work examines the release of etodolac from various molecular weight fractions of polyethylene glycol (PEG) solid dispersions. Solid dispersions of etodolac were prepared in different molar ratios of drug/carrier by using solvent and melting methods. The release rate of etodolac from the resulting complexes was determined from dissolution studies by use of USP dissolution apparatus 2 (paddle method). The physical state and drug:PEG interaction of solid dispersions and physical mixtures were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (IR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The dissolution rate of etodolac is increased in all of the solid dispersion systems compared to that of the pure drug and physical mixtures. The solid dispersion compound prepared in the molar ratio of 1:5 by the solvent method was found to have the fastest dissolution profile. The physical properties did not change after 9 months storage in normal conditions.     

Characteristics of Rofecoxib-Polyethylene Glycol 4000 Solid Dispersions and Tablets Based on Solid Dispersions

The aim of this work was to report the properties of rofecoxib-PEG 4000 solid dispersions and tablets prepared using rofecoxib solid dispersions. Rofecoxib is a poorly water soluble nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug with a poor dissolution profile. This work investigated the possibility of developing rofecoxib tablets, allowing fast, reproducible, and complete rofecoxib dissolution, by using rofecoxib solid dispersion in polyethylene glycol (PEG) 4000. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to characterize the solid state of solid dispersions. The effect of PEG 4000 concentration on the dissolution rate of rofecoxib from its solid dispersions was investigated. The dissolution rate of rofecoxib from its solid dispersions increased with an increasing amount of PEG 4000. The extent of dissolution rate enhancement was estimated by calculating the mean dissolution time (MDT) values. The MDT of rofecoxib decreased significantly after preparing its solid dispersions with PEG 4000. The FTIR spectroscopic studies showed the stability of rofecoxib and absence of well-defined rofecoxib-PEG 4000 interaction. The DSC and XRD studies indicated the amorphous state of rofecoxib in solid dispersions of rofecoxib with PEG 4000. SEM pictures showed the formation of effective solid dispersions of rofecoxib with PEG 4000 since well-defined change in the surface nature of rofecoxib and solid dispersions were observed. Solid dispersions formulation with highest drug dissolution rate (rofecoxib: PEG 4000 1:10 ratio) was used for the preparation of solid dispersion–based rofecoxib tablets by the direct compression method. Solid dispersion–based rofecoxib tablets obtained by direct compression, with a hardness of 8.1 Kp exhibited rapid drug dissolution and produced quick anti-inflammatory activity when compared to conventional tablets containing pure rofecoxib at the same drug dosage. This indicated that the improved dissolution rate and quick anti-inflammatory activity of rofecoxib can be obtained from its solid dispersion–based oral tablets.

Mechanism of increased dissolution of diazepam and temazepam from polyethylene glycol 6000 solid dispersions

Solid dispersion literature, describing the mechanism of dissolution of drug-polyethylene glycol dispersions, still shows some gaps; (A). only few studies include experiments evaluating solid solution formation and the particle size of the drug in the dispersion particles, two factors that can have a profound effect on the dissolution. (B). Solid dispersion preparation involves a recrystallisation process (which is known to be highly sensitive to the recrystallisation conditions) of polyethylene glycol and possibly also of the drug. Therefore, it is of extreme importance that all experiments are performed on dispersion aliquots, which can be believed to be physico-chemical identical. This is not always the case. (C). Polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG6000) crystallises forming lamellae with chains either fully extended or folded once or twice depending on the crystallisation conditions. Recently, a high resolution differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)-method, capable of evaluating qualitatively and quantitatively the polymorphic behaviour of PEG6000, has been reported. Unraveling the relationship between the polymorphic behavior of PEG6000 in a solid dispersion and the dissolution characteristics of that dispersion, is a real gain to our knowledge of solid dispersions, since this has never been thoroughly investigated. The aim of the present study was to fill up the three above mentioned gaps in solid dispersion literature. Therefore, physical mixtures and solid dispersions were prepared and in order to unravel the relationship between their physico-chemical properties and dissolution characteristics, pure drugs (diazepam, temazepam), polymer (PEG6000), solid dispersions and physical mixtures were characterised by DSC, X-ray powder diffraction (Guinier and Bragg-Brentano method), FT-IR spectroscopy, dissolution and solubility experiments and the particle size of the drug in the dispersion particles was estimated using a newly developed method. Addition of PEG6000 improves the dissolution rate of both drugs. Mechanisms involved are solubilisation and improved wetting of the drug in the polyethylene glycol rich micro-environment formed at the surface of drug crystals after dissolution of the polymer. Formulation of solid dispersions did not further improve the dissolution rate compared with physical mixtures. X-ray spectra show that both drugs are in a highly crystalline state in the solid dispersions, while no significant changes in the lattice spacings of PEG6000 indicate the absence of solid solution formation. IR spectra show the absence of a hydrogen bonding interaction between the benzodiazepines and PEG6000. Furthermore, it was concluded that the reduction of the mean drug particle size by preparing solid dispersions with PEG6000 is limited and that the influence of the polymorphic behavior of PEG6000 (as observed by DSC) on the dissolution was negligible.     

Preparation, characterization and in vitro dissolution studies of solid dispersion of meloxicam with PEG 6000

The poor solubility and wettability of meloxicam leads to poor dissolution and hence showing variations in bioavailability. The present study is aimed to increase solubility and dissolution of the drug using solid dispersion techniques. The solid binary systems were prepared at various drug concentrations (5-40%) with polyethylene glycol 6000 by different techniques (physical mixing, solvent evaporation). The formulations were characterized by solubility studies, differential scanning calorimetry, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and in vitro dissolution rate studies. The solubility of drug increased linearly with increase in polymer concentration showing A(L) type solubility diagrams. Infrared spectroscopy studies indicated the possibility of hydrogen bonding with polymer. The differential scanning calorimetry and powder X ray diffraction demonstrated the presence of polymer as eutectica or monotectica in solid dispersion along with the physical characteristics of the drug (crystalline, amorphous or a mixture of both). The solid dispersions of the drug demonstrated higher drug dissolution rates than physical mixtures and pure meloxicam, as a result of increased wettability and dispersibility of drug in a solid dispersion system.     

Formulation and optimization of orodispersible tablets of flutamide

The present study aimed to formulate orodispersible tablets of flutamide (FTM) to increase its bioavailability. Orodispersible tablets were prepared by direct compression technique using three different approaches namely; super-disintegration, effervescence and sublimation. Different combined approaches were proposed and evaluated to optimize tablet characteristics. Sodium starch glycolate (SSG) was used as the superdisintegrant. The prepared powder mixtures were subjected to both pre and post compression evaluation parameters including; IR spectroscopy, micromeritics properties, tablet hardness, friability, wetting time, disintegration time and in-vitro drug release. IR studies indicated that there was no interaction between the drug and the excipients used except Ludipress. The results of micromeritics studies revealed that all formulations were of acceptable to good flowability. Tablet hardness and friability indicated good mechanical strength. Wetting and dispersion times decreased from 46 to 38 s by increasing the SSG concentration from 3.33 to 6.66% w/w in tablets prepared by superdisintegration method. The F8 formulation which was prepared by combined approaches of effervescence and superdisintegrant addition gave promising results for tablet disintegration and wetting times but failed to give faster dissolution rate. The incorporation of 1:5 solid dispersion of FTM: PEG 6000 instead of the pure drug in the same formulation increased the drug release rate from 73.12 to 96.99% after 15 min. This increase in the dissolution rate may be due to the amorphization of the drug during the solid dispersion preparation. The presence of the amorphous form of the drug was shown in the IR spectra.     

Preparation and physicochemical characterizations of tanshinone IIA solid dispersion

This investigation describes a novel approach to prepare solid dispersions of tanshinone IIA using a laboratory-scale planetary ball mill. Poloxamer 188 was employed as the surfactant carrier to improve the solubility and dissolution of the poorly soluble drug, tanshinone IIA. Solubility and dissolution were evaluated compared to the corresponding physical mixtures and pure drug. Furthermore, the physicochemical properties of the solid dispersions were investigated using scanning electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and ultraviolet spectrophotometry. The solid dispersion significantly enhanced drug solubility and dissolution compared with pure drug and the physical mixtures. Scanning electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analyses of tanshinone IIA/poloxamer 188 system confirmed that there were intermolecular interactions between tanshinone IIA and poloxamer 188 and no conversion to crystalline material. Tanshinone IIA existed in a microcrystalline form in the system. These results suggested that improvement of the dissolution rate could be correlated to the formation of a eutectic mixture between the drug and the carrier. After 60 days the solid dispersion samples were chemically and physically stable. The present studies indicated that the planetary ball mill technique could be considered as a novel and efficient method to prepare solid dispersion formulations.     

Dissolution of artemisinin/polymer composite nanoparticles fabricated by evaporative precipitation of nanosuspension

Objectives An evaporative precipitation of nanosuspension (EPN) method was used to fabricate composite particles of a poorly water‐soluble antimalarial drug, artemisinin, with a hydrophilic polymer, polyethylene glycol (PEG), with the aim of enhancing the dissolution rate of artemisinin. We investigated the effect of polymer concentration on the physical, morphological and dissolution properties of the EPN‐prepared artemisinin/PEG composites. Methods The original artemisinin powder, EPN‐prepared artemisinin nanoparticles and artemisinin/PEG composites were characterised by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), X‐ray diffraction (XRD), dissolution testing and HPLC. The percentage dissolution efficiency, relative dissolution, time to 75% dissolution and mean dissolution time were calculated. The experimental drug dissolution data were fitted to various mathematical models (Weibull, first‐order, Korsemeyer–Peppas, Hixson–Crowell cube root and Higuchi models) in order to analyse the release mechanism. Key findings The DSC and XRD studies suggest that the crystallinity of the EPN‐prepared artemisinin decreased with increasing polymer concentration. The phase‐solubility studies revealed an A_L‐type curve, indicating a linear increase in drug solubility with PEG concentration. The dissolution rate of the EPN‐prepared artemisinin and artemisinin/PEG composites increased markedly compared with the original artemisinin powder. Conclusions EPN can be used to prepare artemisinin nanoparticles and artemisinin/PEG composite particles that have a significantly enhanced dissolution rate. The mechanism of drug release involved diffusion and erosion.
