Solid dispersion is one of the mostly discussed but still remained as a challenging aspect for improving dissolution rate and hence bioavailability of a poorly water soluble drugs. The focus of this review is to highlight technology and various approaches for the preparation of solid dispersion, materials used various advantages, disadvantages and future prospects with its pharmaceutical applications. This article also focuses the use of factorial design along with its types, uses and applications for the optimization of solid dispersion formulation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
