Influence of hydrophilic polymers on celecoxib complexation with hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin.

Complexation of celecoxib with hydroxypropyl beta-cyclodextrin (HPbetaCD) in the presence and absence of 3 hydrophilic polymers-polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP), hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), and polyethylene glycol (PEG)-was investigated with an objective of evaluating the effect of hydrophilic polymers on the complexation and solubilizing efficiencies of HPbetaCD and on the dissolution rate of celecoxib from the HPbetaCD complexes. The phase solubility studies indicated the formation of celecoxib-HPbetaCD inclusion complexes at a 1:1M ratio in solution in both the presence and the absence of hydrophilic polymers. The complexes formed were quite stable.
