Development and Evaluation of Oleanolic Acid Dosage Forms and Its Derivatives

الملخص EN

Oleanolic acid is a pentacyclic triterpenoid compound that exists widely in medicinal herbs and other plants.

Because of the extensive pharmacological activity, oleanolic acid has attracted more and more attention.

However, the structural characteristics of oleanolic acid prevent it from being directly made into new drugs, which limits the application of oleanolic acid.

Through the application of modern preparation techniques and methods, different oleanolic acid dosage forms and derivatives have been designed and synthesized.

These techniques can improve the water solubility and bioavailability of oleanolic acid and lay a foundation for the new drug development.

In this review, the recent progress in understanding the oleanolic acid dosage forms and its derivatives are discussed.

Furthermore, these products were evaluated comprehensively from the perspective of characterization and pharmacokinetics, and this work may provide ideas and references for the development of oleanolic acid preparations.
