DEVELOPMENT OF NANOCRYSTAL FORMULATION WITH IMPROVED DISSOLUTION
Abstract
With the advancement in modern pharmaceutical technologies, Nanotechnology is the one of the most establish technology which is used to improve the therapeutic index and to overcome the formulation challenges of poorly water-soluble compounds. Nanocrystals, in nano range, is the interesting approach for poorly soluble drugs. Due to the small size, increased surface area enhanced the dissolution rate and solubility of drug. In this paper, current technologies and methods in nanocrystal preparation, stabilization, pharmaceutical applications and limitations of nanocrystal are reviewed.
Keywords: Nanocrystal, limitations, stabilization, preparation, applications
