| Abstract | The solid dispersion technique is the most effective method for improving the dissolution rate of poorly water-soluble drugs, however this is reliant on a suitable carrier and solvent being selected. The work presented explores D-glucosamine HCl (G-HCl) as a potential hydrophilic carrier to improve dissolution rate of a poorly water-soluble drug, carbamazepine (CBZ), from physical mixtures and solid dispersion formulations. The effect of different solvents in the preparation of solid dispersion formulations was also investigated. Solid dispersions of the drug and G-HCl were prepared using different ratios by the conventional solvent evaporation method. Different solvents (ethanol, acetone and water) were used as second variable in the preparation of solid dispersions. Physical mixtures of CBZ and G-HCl were also prepared for comparison. The properties of all solid dispersions and physical mixtures were studied using a dissolution tester, FT-IR, SEM and DSC. These results showed that the presence of glucosamine can increase dissolution rate of CBZ compared to pure CBZ. All solid dispersions of CBZ-G-HCl showed considerably a higher dissolution rate than the corresponding physical mixtures. The presence of water during preparation of the solid dispersions reduced the dissolution rate of CBZ due to formation of carbamazepine dihydrate during the preparation of solid dispersion, as proved by DSC and FT-IR studies. To facilitate comparison, the dissolution efficiency was calculated for solid dispersions prepared with different solvents and the dissolution efficiency can generally be ranked as follows: ethanol>acetone>ethanol-water>acetone-water when the ratios of drug to carrier were 4:1 and 2:1. It has thus been shown that the use of G-HCl in solid dispersion formulations can significantly enhance the dissolution rate of poorly water-soluble drugs such as carbamazepine. This amino sugar could be used as a new carrier in solid dispersion formulations and would have significant commercial potential. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
