Abstract:
Objective: To prepare the solid dispersion of Pulsatilla saponin D (PSD-SD) and evalution its in vivo and in vitro drug release behavior. Methods: The PSD-SD was prepared by solvent method. Three carriers were used in the PSD-SD. Infrared spectroscopy (IR), differential thermal analysis (DSC), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to determine the PSD-SD. Dissolution rates and pharmacokinetic parameters were evaluated in vitro and in vivo characteristics of the PSD-SD. Results: When the PEG 6000 was used as carrier, the solubility of PSD was increased from 2.39 to 7.06 mg/mL, and the cumulative release rate of PSD reached 90% in 60 min, and the bioavailability of PSD was increased to 2.24 times. Conclusion: The solid dispersion prepared PSD can increase the solubility, dissolution rate, and bioavailability.
