Effect of temperature and moisture on the miscibility of amorphous dispersions of felodipine and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone)

TLDR
It appears that felodipine-PVP solid dispersions are susceptible to moisture-induced immiscibility when stored at a relative humidity >or=75%.

Melt extrusion with poorly soluble drugs

TL;DR: This review assesses the utility of ME as a means of enhancing solubility of poorly soluble drugs/chemicals and highlights the potential advantages of employing a fusion of techniques, including pharmaceutical co-crystals and spray drying/solvent evaporation, facilitating the design of formulations of API exhibiting specific physico-chemical characteristics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modification of physicochemical characteristics of active pharmaceutical ingredients and application of supersaturatable dosage forms for improving bioavailability of poorly absorbed drugs.

TL;DR: This review discusses strategies for overcoming physicochemical problems during the development at the preformulation and formulation stages with emphasis on overcoming the most typical problem, low solubility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of Electrospun and Extruded Soluplus®-based Solid Dosage Forms of Improved Dissolution

TL;DR: Electrospinning and extrusion of a poorly water-soluble active pharmaceutical ingredient were used to improve its dissolution, which is a major challenge in the field of pharmaceutical technology, and resulted in significantly improved dissolution.

Spectroscopic characterization of interactions between PVP and indomethacin in amorphous molecular dispersions.

TL;DR: A comparison of the carbonyl stretching region of γ indomethacin, known to form carboxylic acid dimers, with that of amorphous indometHacin indicated that the amorphously phase exists predominantly as dimers.
Journal ArticleDOI

The relationship between the glass transition temperature and the water content of amorphous pharmaceutical solids.

TL;DR: It was found that there is a rapid initial reduction in the glass transition temperature from the dry state as water is absorbed, followed by a gradual leveling off of the response at higher water contents, indicating that water acts as a plasticizer in a way similar to that of other small molecules and not through any specific or stoichiometric interaction process(es).
