摘要:AbstractsThe aim of the present investigation was to improve the solubility and dissolution rate of Iloperidone. Microspheres containing Iloperidone were prepared by spray drying using mucilage extracted from seeds ofCaesalpinia pulcherrima.The novelty of this work is that, the extraction of mucilage and its usage for preparation of drug loaded microspheres. The prepared microspheres were characterized by SEM, DSC, XRPD, FTIR,1H-NMR, particle size, drug content, entrapment efficiency,in vitrodissolution andex vivomucoadhesion. Based on particle size, drug content,ex vivomucoadhesive strength andin vitrodrug release, the best formulation was optimized. Percent entrapment efficiency and mean particle size for optimized formulation was found to be 73.49 and 3.27 ± 1.23 μm, respectively. More precisely, mucilage ofC. pulcherrimacould be significant carrier of (drug and polymer ratio 1:5) microspheres for the development of oral drug delivery.
