Nanosizing: a formulation approach for poorly-water-soluble compounds.

TLDR
NanoCrystal Technology is an attrition process wherein large micron size drug crystals are media milled in a water-based stabilizer solution and the process generates physically stable dispersions consisting of nanometer-sized drug crystals.

Experimental and computational approaches to estimate solubility and permeability in drug discovery and development settings

TL;DR: Experimental and computational approaches to estimate solubility and permeability in discovery and development settings are described in this article, where the rule of 5 is used to predict poor absorption or permeability when there are more than 5 H-bond donors, 10 Hbond acceptors, and the calculated Log P (CLogP) is greater than 5 (or MlogP > 415).

Molecular properties that influence the oral bioavailability of drug candidates.

TL;DR: Reduced molecular flexibility, as measured by the number of rotatable bonds, and low polar surface area or total hydrogen bond count are found to be important predictors of good oral bioavailability, independent of molecular weight.
