ABSTRACT
The aim of this study is to develop an anti-hyperlipidemic, orally soluble atorvastatin. This is a BCS Class II drug. Development of atorvastatin providing improved bioavailability and reduced variability is required. It was prepared by ultrasonic method. The content of the selected drug (SBF4) is 98%, which represent the highest concentration of the drug currently in production. The presence of surfactants and co-surfactants provides greater stability with increased drug release. Development of self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (SNEDDS) formulations to improve the solubility and release rate of poorly soluble hypolipidemic drugs. Among the formulations, BF2, BF4 and BF6 showed the highest concentration of 85.10 ± 1.23%, while the commercial formulation showed only 58.49 ± 1.22 cumulative drug release after 90 min. This is the larger drug spread for SNEDDS selection. The aim of the current study is to prepare a stable dose of atorvastatin calcium that improves drug partitioning compared to the existing commercial product (Lipitor 10 mg) and finally differs in oral bioavailability and absorption and reduction in patients. Effects of nutrients on absorption Comparison of drugs with commercial products.
