Cyclodextrin Inclusion Complexes: Novel Techniques to Improve Solubility of Poorly Soluble Drugs: A Review

    For a formulation scientist, the dilemma of solubility is a crucial test during the product development phase that can be resolved by opting various technological strategies. Some of the strategies that are usually applied for enhancing solubility of drugs with low aqueous solubility include micronization, solvent deposition and solid dispersion. With these approaches, some advantages as well as drawbacks, are affiliated. The strategy of complexation amid all techniques, has been applied more accurately for the improvement of dissolution profile, aqueous solubility, and bioavailability of poorly soluble drug candidates. Cyclodextrin are unique cyclic carbohydrates that have been exploited as successful complexing agents having capability of forming inclusion complexes with insoluble drugs. Numerous strategies have been considered to analyze the methods for preparation of inclusion complexes. In this review, we have pursued the discussion on different complexation techniques and in a nutshell, emphasized the applications and economical/technical limitations related to these techniques.
