Preparation and Characterization of Microemulsion of Cilostazol for Enhancement of Oral Bioavailability

Abstract: Cilostazol is a promising drug for antiplatelet combination therapy that is very important for treatment for various cardiovascular disorders. However, oral delivery of this drug is greatly impeded by the poor solubility in aqueous solutions. The aim of this study was to develop microemulsion (ME) delivery system capable of improving the drug bioavailability. In this study, Capmul MCM C8 (glycerol monocaprylate) based MEs containing Tween 20(polysorbate 20) and/or Labrafil M 1944(poly oxyglycerides) as surfact… Show more

“…Among several strategies adapted to improve bioavailability, the major concern has always been on enhancing drug's water solubility 1,4,5 . Solubility of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in the gastric medium is of prime significance as its fair absorption through the intestine and its bioavailability depends on this property.…”
