Of those three types of cyclodextrin, the most used is cyclodextrins. However, it is contraindicated for
parenteral dosage form. In this case, the formulators use
the derivates of -cyclodextrins.
Cyclodextrins-Complexed
Drugs
Miconazole
It has poor solubility
After being complexed with cyclodextrin, the
solubility increases up to 55-fold and dissolution
rate goes up to 255-fold.
PGE2 (Prostarmon)
Piroxicam (Brexin)
Itraconazole (Sporanox)
Aripiprazole
Omeprazole
Dexamethasone
Highlight..!!!
Before being complexed with
cyclodextrin, ITRACONAZOLEs
solubility is about 1 ng/mL.
After being complexed with
cyclodextrin, the solubility
increases to 10 mg/mL.
Clathrates
It is a cage-like lattice of one type of
molecules entraps a second type of
molecules.
Clathrates
Several compounds can
form clathrates.
Gallic acid
Urea
Thiourea
Zeolith

Cholesterol
Vitamin A
Methane clathrate is associated
Linoleic and linolenic acid
with the source of energy and
can cause tsunami.
PRODRUG APPROACH
Prodrugs
An ideal prodrug is a chemical entity that has no pharmacological
activity against a designated physiological target, but is
metabolically transformed into a compound with the desired
activity
Prodrugs can be used:
To improve drug delivery or pharmacokinetics (solubilicity & lipophilicity)
To change properties of the drugs
To decrease toxicity
To target the drug to specific cells or tissues

Codeine Morphine
Lipophilicity Vs Solubility
An increase in lipophilicity is usually
accompanied by a decrease in water
solubility
Prodrugs to Increase
Solubility
Introduction of an ionizable functional group
allowing various salts of such prodrugs to be
formed.
Phosphate esters Prednisolone phosphate
Amino acid esters Valacyclovir
Hemiesters of dicarboxylic acids, Chloramphenicol
sodium succinate
Highlight..!!!
Salting-In Addition of salt will INCREASE
solubility of the compound.
Salting-Out Addition of salt will DECREASE
solubility of the compound
Prodrugs to Increase
Lipophilicity
Many prodrugs feature the
addition of a hydrophobic
group in order to increase
their lipid solubility to improve
their gastrointestinal
absorption.
