In Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation of Oxatomide β-Cyclodextrin Inclusion Complex

الملخص EN

The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of oxatomide β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex on the physicochemical properties and bioavailability of the drug.

Oxatomide β-cyclodextrin solid complex was prepared with equimolar ratio of both oxatomide and β-cyclodextrin in presence or absence of water soluble polymers using different techniques.

The coevaporated complex prepared in presence of PVP-K15 showed a prompt drug release and significantly increased % dissolution efficiency (P<0.05) compared to the pure oxatomide.

Moreover, the results of bioavailability evaluation of this complex in rabbits compared to commercial drug product indicated a 73.15% increase in the oral bioavailability of oxatomide.

In conclusion, inclusion complex of oxatomide with β-cyclodextrin prepared by coevaporation in presence of PVP-K15 not only results in an enhancement of the oxatomide dissolution rate but also improves the bioavailability of oxatomide.
