Book Self Emulsifying Systems for Oral Bioavailability Enhancement of Drugs

Download or read book Self Emulsifying Systems for Oral Bioavailability Enhancement of Drugs written by Suryakanta Swain and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-22 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery systems (SNEDDS) have been proved as technologically worthwhile, effortlessly scalable and economically sound delivery systems for enhancing the oral bioavailability of highly lipophilic drugs. Distinct merits of smaller globule size, higher solubilization tendency and robust formulation advantages have made them as one of the most promising alternatives among the diverse lipid-based nanostructured systems. In the last two decades, the phenomenal success of SNEDDS as a potential delivery platform for oral delivery of drugs has gained phenomenal interest in academia and industry with utility of them in non-oral drug delivery too. The current book manuscript provides an overview account on the recent advances in the development of self-nanoemulsifying formulations along with their characterization and applications in enhancing biopharmaceutical performance of the drugs. Besides, the book highlights two research case studies as instances to the pharmaceutical formulation scientists for development of solid self-nanoemulsifying systems of two poorly water soluble drugs, ondansetron and valsartan, for enhancing their oral bioavailability.

Book An Investigation of the Impact of Intestinal Lymphatic Transport on Bioavailability  Systemic Clearance and Disposition of Lipophilic Drugs

Download or read book An Investigation of the Impact of Intestinal Lymphatic Transport on Bioavailability Systemic Clearance and Disposition of Lipophilic Drugs written by Suzanne Mary Caliph and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Highly lipophilic and poorly water soluble drug candidates are common outcomes ofdrug discovery programs in recent years, presenting drug development challenges throughpoor gastrointestinal absorption and insufficient systemic exposure after oral administration.Co-administration with lipidic excipients presents an apparent strategy to improve the oralbioavailability of these compounds by stimulating enhanced solubilisation in the gut andrecruitment of intestinal lymphatic drug transport. The impact of stimulating intestinallymphatic transport to improve oral bioavailability on systemic drug exposure, clearance anddeposition has been poorly understood. The interpretation of lymphatic drug transport data isfurther complicated by variations in dosing excipients and dispersed states, study models,prandial (fed/fasted) states, intravenous dosing conditions and formulations used for theassessment of absolute bioavailability. The studies described in this thesis investigatedvarious factors affecting the intestinal lymphatic transport and oral bioavailability assessmentof highly lipophilic compounds using lymph-cannulated and non lymph-cannulated animals.These factors examined included subtle differences in lipophilicity and lipid solubility ofchemically similar drug analogues, lipid and non-lipid based oral formulations, intravenousdosing states and dosing conditions. The impact of lymphatic drug delivery on systemicexposure, clearance and drug deposition was also examined in comparison with portal routeof drug absorption in this thesis. Oral bioavailability of highly lipophilic analogues wassignificantly enhanced after administration in long chain lipid-based formulations viastimulation of intestinal lymphatic transport and significantly influenced by subtle differencesin lipid solubility, however, not lipophilicity as indicated by log P. After delivery in lymph orthe lipid-based emulsion, systemic clearance (Cl) and volume of distribution (Vd) of a highlylipophilic, lymphatically transported model drug, halofantrine (Hf) were significantly lowerthan when delivered in plasma or lipid-free co-solvent formulation. However, where drug andlipid entered the systemic circulation coincidentally, Cl and Vd were unaffected by the routeof entry, but significantly altered by total plasma lipid levels. These findings suggest that amismatch in plasma lipid levels after intravenous and oral administration may lead todifferences in drug clearance and errors in bioavailability assessment. This thesis alsoinvestigated the influence of absorption route (lymphatics vs. blood) on drugpharmacokinetics and tissue distribution. Brain to blood ratios were found to be significantlylower after stimulation of intestinal lymphatic delivery suggesting that drug association withintestinal lymph lipoproteins might limit brain drug access. Lipophilic model compounds(DDT, Hf) and lipids were assessed following delivery to the systemic circulation inassociation with lymph lipoproteins or plasma, and were found to differ significantly. ForDDT, Cl and Vd were higher whereas for Hf, these parameters were lower due, in particular,to differences in adipose tissue uptake and liver uptake. For compounds like DDT, changes tothe route of absorption may thus directly impact on pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution,whereas for Hf, factors which influence lymphatic transport may, by altering systemiclipoprotein concentrations, indirectly impact pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution.Ultimately, careful control of dosing conditions and thus the extent of lymphatic transportmay be important in assuring reproducible efficacy and toxicity for lymphatically transporteddrugs.

  • Publisher : John Wiley & Sons
  • Release : 2006-03-06
  • ISBN : 3527605150
  • Pages : 602 pages

Download or read book Drug Bioavailability written by Han van de Waterbeemd and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2006-03-06 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The peroral application (swallowing) of a medicine means that the body must first resorb the active substance before it can begin to take effect. The efficacy of drug uptake depends on the one hand on the chemical characteristics of the active substance, above all on its solubility and membrane permeability. On the other hand, it is determined by the organism's ability to absorb pharmaceuticals by way of specific transport proteins or to excrete them. Since many pharmacologically active substances are poorly suited for oral intake, a decisive criterion for the efficacy of a medicine is its so-called bioavailability. Written by an international team from academia and the pharmaceutical industry, this book covers all aspects of the oral bioavailability of medicines. The focus is placed on methods for determining the parameters relevant to bioavailability. These range from modern physicochemical techniques via biological studies in vitro and in vivo right up to computer-aided predictions. The authors specifically address possibilities for optimizing bioavailability during the early screening stage for the active substance. Its clear structure and comprehensive coverage make this book equally suitable for researchers and lecturers in industry and teaching.
