The effect of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose on the release of dexamethasone from aqueous 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin formulations

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of HPβCD on the aqueous solubility of dexamethasone and showed that a water-soluble 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (1:1) inclusion complex was formed by the addition of 0.1% hydroxypropyl methylcellulose.

Interaction of NSA with cyclodextrins and hydroxypropyl cyclodextrin derivatives

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of hydroxyalkylated cyclodextrins (CD) on the solubility and stability of the nonsteroidal antirheumatics (NSA) diclofenac, piroxicam and indomethacin were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effect of polyvinylpyrrolidone on cyclodextrin complexation of hydrocortisone and its diffusion through hairless mouse skin

TL;DR: Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) increased the complexation of hydrocortisone which increased solubility of the drug in the aqueous cyclodextrin solutions and could be increased even further by addition of oleic acid to the a Queen Elizabeth II-class PVP vehicle systems.
