TLDR
In this paper, it was observed that a eutectic mixture of sulfathiazole and urea produces a microcrystalline suspension of the drug in water, which can be used to adjust the therapeutic effect of medical compounds.Abstract:
1) Sulfathiazole forms eutectic mixtures with urea, l-ascorbic acid, acetamide, nicotinic acid, nicotinamide, or succinimide. It was observed that a eutectic mixture of sulfathiazole and urea produces a microcrystalline suspension of sulfathiazole in water. 2) Sulfathiazole in a eutectic mixture with urea shows higher absorption and excretion after oral administration than ordinary sulfathiazole. 3) Since urea does not possess solubilizing action on sulfathiazole and also it does not enhance absorption of the drug physiologically, the accelerated absorption or excretion must be attributed to the physical state of sulfathiazole in its eutectic mixture with easily soluble compound, such as urea. 4) It is assumed that this new form of preparation will give a means of adjusting therapeutic effect of medical compounds.read more

Comparison of polyethylene glycol and polyoxyethylene stearate as excipients for solid dispersion systems of griseofulvin and tolbutamide II
TL;DR: Polyoxyethylene 40 stearate generally is superior to polyethylene glycol 2000 in promoting the dispersion of the drugs in solids, disintegration of the compactedsolids, and solubilization of the drug during dissolution.
