title: Self dispersing mixed micelles forming systems for enhanced dissolution and intestinal permeability of hydrochlorothiazide.
abstract: Mixed micelles provide promising strategy for enhancing dissolution and permeability of drugs. However, their fluid nature limited the stability of the loaded drug and hindered the development of stable oral dosage form. Accordingly, the objective was to develop solid self dispersing mixed micelle forming systems (MMFS) for enhanced dissolution and intestinal permeability of hydrochlorothiazide. Pseudoternary phase diagrams were constructed using sodium cholate, lecithin with either poloxamer 407 or PEG 4000 to determine the composition of MMFS. Both polymer free and poloxamer or PEG containing MMFS were prepared as homogenous matrices or as solid self dispersing powder. The later was developed by adsorption of MMFS on avicel-aerosil mixture. Differential scanning calorimetry provided an evidence for existence of hydrochlorothiazide as molecular dispersion in the MMFS. Dispersing polymer free, PEG 4000 or poloxamer based MMFS in aqueous medium produced micelles having size values of 119, 52.6 and 28nm, respectively. The zeta potential values were -61.8, -59.5 and -19.5mV for the same systems, respectively. Preparation of solid self dispersing MMFS enhanced the dissolution rate of hydrochlorothiazide. The intestinal absorption of hydrochlorothiazide from its aqueous solution and polymer incorporating mixed micellar systems was monitored using in situ rabbit intestinal perfusion technique. The permeability results showed a clear trend for enhanced membrane transport of the drug after being incorporated into poloxamer containing mixed micellar system. The study thus introduced a versatile easily formulated solid self dispersing system with high potential for solving the dissolution and permeability problems of class IV drugs.
