Self nano-emulsifying drug delivery system (SNEDDS) has been widely used to enhance dissolution and bioavailability of glibenclamide (GB). In addition, black seed oil, containing bioactive thymoquinone (TQ), showed promising antihyperglycemic effect. Therefore, this work aims to design solid SNEDDS formulation loaded with Black seed oil and GB.

Various SNEDDS formulations were prepared and subjected to pharmaceutical assessment. The solubility of candesartan (CC), glibenclamide (GB), and rosuvastatin (RC) in SNEDDS and supersaturated SNEDDS formulations was evaluated.

This study aimed to formulate chitosan (CS)-coated poly ε-caprolactone nanoparticles (PCL NPs) loaded with BM for direct targeting to the brain via the nasal route. PCL NPs were optimized using response surface methodology and a Box-Behnken factorial design.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAceclofenac (AC) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug used in the treatment of chronic pain in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, with frequent administration during the day. The formulation of sustained release matrix pellets can provide a promising alternative dosage form that controls the release of the drug, with less blood fluctuation and side effects-especially those related to the gastric system. The extrusion/spheronization technique was used to formulate AC matrix pellets.
