Using pH-solubility and pH-dissolution rate interrelationships, it has been established that diffusion layer pH could be used to explain the observed rank order in dissolution rates for different salt forms. A non-hydrochloride salt, such as a mesylate salt, may provide advantages over a hydrochloride salt due to its high solubility and lack of common ion effect unless at very low pH.
Solid solubility of griseofulvin and indoprofen in PVP is approximately 0% w/w and approximately 13% w/w, respectively. Drug-polymer hydrogen bonding in indoprofen-PVP dispersions favors solid solubility. Phase separation rate of drug from the solid dispersions depends on the initial drug content and the nature of drug-polymer interactions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
