Abstract
Amorphous solid dispersion (ASD) is one of the most effective approaches for delivering poorly soluble drugs. In ASDs, polymeric materials serve as the carriers in which the drugs are dispersed at the molecular level. To prepare the solid dispersions, there are many polymers with various physicochemical and thermochemical characteristics available for use in ASD formulations. Polymer selection is of great importance because it influences the stability, solubility and dissolution rates, manufacturing process, and bioavailability of the ASD. This review article provides a comprehensive overview of ASDs from the perspectives of physicochemical characteristics of polymers, formulation designs and preparation methods. Furthermore, considerations of safety and regulatory requirements along with the studies recommended for characterizing and evaluating polymeric carriers are briefly discussed.
期刊介绍：
The Asian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences (AJPS) serves as the official journal of the Asian Federation for Pharmaceutical Sciences (AFPS). Recognized by the Science Citation Index Expanded (SCIE), AJPS offers a platform for the reporting of advancements, production methodologies, technologies, initiatives, and the practical application of scientific knowledge in the field of pharmaceutics. The journal covers a wide range of topics including but not limited to controlled drug release systems, drug targeting, physical pharmacy, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, pharmacogenomics, biopharmaceutics, drug and prodrug design, pharmaceutical analysis, drug stability, quality control, pharmaceutical engineering, and material sciences.
