The purpose of this study was to prepare and characterize solid dispersions of the antibacterial agent Cefdinir with PEG 4000 and PVP K-30 with a view to improve its dissolution properties. Investigations of the properties of the dispersions were performed using release studies, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR). The results obtained showed that the rate of dissolution of Cefdinir was considerably improved when formulated in solid dispersions with PVP K-30 and PEG 4000 as compared with pure drug and physical mixtures. The results from XRD studies showed the transition of crystalline nature of drug to amorphous form, while FTIR studies demonstrated the absence of drug-carriers interaction.

This study aimed to elucidate the impact of a common anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), along with hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) and Soluplus (Sol) on the release of griseofulvin (GF), a poorly soluble drug, from amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs). Solutions of 2.5% GF and 2.5%–12.5% HPC/Sol with 0.125% SDS/without SDS were prepared in acetone–water and spray-dried. The solid-state characterization of the ASDs suggests that GF–Sol had better miscibility and stronger interactions than GF–HPC and formed XRPD-amorphous GF, whereas HPC-based ASDs, especially the ones with a lower HPC loading, had crystalline GF. The dissolution tests show that without SDS, ASDs provided limited GF supersaturation (max. 250%) due to poor wettability of Sol-based ASDs and extensive GF recrystallization in HPC-based ASDs (max. 50%). Sol-based ASDs with SDS exhibited a dramatic increase in supersaturation (max. 570%), especially at a higher Sol loading, whereas HPC-based ASDs with SDS did not. SDS did not interfere with Sol’s ability to inhibit GF recrystallization, as confirmed by the precipitation from the supersaturated state and PLM imaging. The favorable use of SDS in a ternary ASD was attributed to both the wettability enhancement and its inability to promote GF recrystallization when used as a minor component along with Sol.

Spray-drying is an increasingly popular technology for the production of amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) in the pharmaceutical industry that is used in the early evaluation and industrial production of formulations. Efficient screening of ASD in the earliest phase of drug development is therefore critical. A novel miniaturized atomization equipment for screening spray-dried solid dispersions (SDSDs) in early formulation and process development was developed. An in-depth comparison between the equipment/process parameters and performance of our novel screening device and a laboratory Büchi B290 mini spray-dryer was performed. Equipment qualification was conducted by comparing the particle/powder attributes, i.e., miscibility/solid state, residual solvent, and morphological properties of binary SDSDs of itraconazole prepared at both screening and laboratory scales. The operating mode of the miniaturized device was able to reproduce similar process conditions/parameters (e.g., outlet temperature (Tout)) and to provide particles with similar drug–polymer miscibility and morphology as laboratory-scale SDSDs. These findings confirm that the design and operation of this novel screening equipment mimic the microscale evaporation mechanism of a larger spray-dryer. The miniaturized spray-dryer was therefore able to provide a rational prediction of adequate polymer and drug loading (DL) for SDSD development while reducing active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) consumption by a factor of 120 and cycle time by a factor of 4.

Solid dispersions of ofloxacin (OFX) and of a number of carriers including chitosan and the water soluble polymers polyethylene glycol (PEG) 4000, PEG 20000, and polyvinylpyrrolidone K- 90 were prepared by solvent evaporation method in order to increase the dissolution of the drug. The solid dispersions were subjected to X-ray diffraction, DSC, and dissolution to characterize their physicochemical and dissolution properties. The results demonstrated a decrease in drug crystallinity at higher amounts of carrier. Dissolution studies indicated that the dissolution rate of OFX was markedly increased in these solid dispersion systems compared with the pure drug. The results also showed that the increase in dissolution rate was higher when the weight fraction of carriers increased. An influence of molecular weight of PEG on OFX dissolution could also be observed. In solid dispersion with 1:9 ratio drug to carrier, PEG 4000 gave highest drug dissolution rate, whereas in 1:1 ratio, chitosan seems to be the best carrier for drug release. It was concluded that chitosan might be the carrier of choice for dissolution enhancement in solid dispersions with high content of drug.
