The purpose of this work is to improve the dissolution and bioavailability characteristics of glibenclamide as compared to Daonil tablets (Hoechst). Solid dispersions of glibenclamide in Gelucire 44/14 (Formula 1) and in polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG 6000) (Formula 2) were prepared by fusion method. In vitro dissolution studies showed that the dispersing systems containing glibenclamide and Gelucire 44/ 14 or PEG 6000 gave faster dissolution rates than the reference product Daonil. The in vivo bioavailability study was assessed in six healthy male volunteers in crossover design with a 1-week washout period. Both formulas were found to be significantly different from Daonil with regard to the extent of absorption as indicated by the area under serum concentration-time curve. Both formulas are not significantly different from Daonil with respect to time of peak plasma concentration Tmax. It is concluded from this pilot study that the ranking of the in vitro dissolution is similar to the ranking of in vivo availability. The ranking of the three preparations in term of dissolution rate and extent of absorption is as follows: Formula 2>Formula 1 >Daonil.

The present study was undertaken to evaluate the impact of various combinations of nonionic surfactants on self-nanoemulsifying performance of two grades of Lauroglycol (Lauroglycol-90 and Lauroglycol-FCC) in glibenclamide (GBN) nanoemulsion. Formulations (L1-L30) were prepared by spontaneous emulsification method. Prepared formulations were subjected to thermodynamic stability and self-nanoemulsification test.

Amalgamation of solid dispersion and melt adsorption technologies was utilized for enhancing the dissolution rate of poorly soluble drugs. Glibenclamide was employed as a model drug. PEG6000 and Gelucire44/14 were used as hydrophilic carriers for the preparation of solid dispersions, and lactose was utilized as an adsorbent for the preparation of solid dispersion adsorbates.

Solid dispersions (SDs) of glibenclamide (GBM); a poorly water-soluble drug and polyglycolized glycerides (Gelucire with the aid of silicon dioxide (Aerosil 200); as an adsorbent, were prepared by spray drying technique. SDs and spray dried GBM in comparison with pure GBM and corresponding physical mixtures (PMs) were initially characterized and then subjected to ageing study up to 3 months. Initial characterization of SDs and spray dried GBM by DSC and XRPD showed that GBM was present in its amorphous form (AGBM).
