Enhanced oral bioavailability of aceclofenac has been achieved using chitosan cocrystals of aceclofenac and its entrapment into alginate matrix a super saturated drug delivery system (SDDS). Prepared SDDS were evaluated by various physiochemical and pharmacological methods. The result revealed that the primary cocrystals enhanced the solubility of the drug and the thick gelled polymer matrix that formed from swelling of calcium alginate beads makes it to release the drug in continuous and sustained manner by supersaturated drug diffusion. The Cmax, Tmax and relative bioavailability for aceclofenac cocrystal and aceclofenac SDDS were 2.06±0.42 μg/ml, 1 h, 159.72±10.84 and 2.01 μg/ml, 1 h, 352.76±12.91, respectively. Anti-inflammatory activity of aceclofenac was significantly improved with the SDDS. With respect to the results, it revealed that the SDDS described herein might be a promising tool for the oral sustained release of aceclofenac and likely for that of various other poorly soluble drugs.

The majority of conventional osteoarthritis (OA) treatments are based on molecular adjustment of certain signaling pathways associated with osteoarthritis (OA) pathogenesis, however there is a significant need to search for more effective and safe treatments. This study centers around formulating Aceclofenac (ACF) with high bioavailability in combination with Citronellol oil and collagen. The optimal concentrations of Citronellol oil/D-Limonene oil, Tween 80, and Transcutol HP were determined using a pseudoternary phase diagram.

Amphiphilic micelles based on chitosan (CS) were applied as drug carriers of aceclofenac (ACF) as a potential method to induce its bioavailability and therapeutic efficiency. -octyl-,-succinyl CS (OSCS), an amphiphilic CS derivative, was successfully synthesized and loaded physically by ACF at different pH values and using different dosages of ACF, forming ACF-loaded polymeric micelles (PMs). The obtained PMs and ACF-loaded PMs were characterized by different analytical techniques, including AFM, TEM, DLS, UV-vis spectrophotometry, H NMR spectroscopy, and FT-IR spectroscopy.

Aceclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug with poor aqueous solubility and a short half-life resulting in low bioavailability. Aceclofenac-loaded solid lipid microparticles based solidified reverse micellar solution (SLMs-SRMS) for oral drug delivery was investigated to improve the bioavailability and control drug release. Hot homogenization method was adopted to prepare the SLMs using a homolipid irvingia fat and Phospholipon® 90H with or without propylene glycol 6000 (PEGylation) in different ratios and characterized .
