Enhancing the Solubility of Curcumin Using a Solid Dispersion System with Hydroxypropyl-β-Cyclodextrin Prepared by Grinding, Freeze-Drying, and Common Solvent Evaporation Methods
Cyclodextrins (CDs) and their derivatives significantly increase drug solubility by forming drug/CD complexes known as solid dispersions (SDs), which consist of an inclusion complex (IC), where the drug is entrapped within the CD cavity, and a non-IC. Here, the SDs of curcumin (CUR) and hydroxypropy...
