Predicting Aqueous Solubility Of Pharmaceutical Agents By Solid Dispersion Prepared By Solvent Evaporation Method, Karthik Reddy Patlolla Jan 2015

Predicting Aqueous Solubility Of Pharmaceutical Agents By Solid Dispersion Prepared By Solvent Evaporation Method, Karthik Reddy Patlolla

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Solubility of active pharmaceutical agents is a crucial process that determines drug absorption and ultimately its bioavailability. Many of the new therapeutically beneficial compounds discovered are lipophilic requiring various solubility enhancement strategies to improve their solubility. Among these strategies, solubility enhancement using solid dispersions is a leading method. To obtain a desirable increase in the solubility of a poorly-soluble compound, a good understanding of the molecular descriptors influencing the enhancement of solubility is essential. Therefore, the major research objective was to determine the descriptors which significantly influence the solubility enhancement by solid dispersions. After enhancing the solubility of selected poorly-soluble …
