| 摘要 |
Self-emulsifying drug delivery systems are provided to improve dissolution, stability, and bioavailability of drug compounds of dronabinol or other cannabinoids. The drug compound(s) 5 are dissolved in an oily medium (e.g. triglycerides and/or mixed glycerides and/or free fatty acids containing medium and/or long chain saturated, mono-unsaturated, and/or poly-unsaturated free fatty acids) together with at least one surfactant. The surfactant promotes self-emulsification, thereby promoting targeted chylomicron/lipoprotein delivery and optimal bioavailability through the mammalian intestinal tract. A dosage form can optionally include co-solvents, anti-oxidants, 0 viscosity modifying agents, cytochrome P450 metabolic inhibitors, P-GP efflux inhibitors, and amphiphilic/non-amphiphilic solutes to induce semi-solid formation for targeted release rates. @80 -- Formulation (i) - Formulation (ii) 60 60 -6- Formulation (iii) -X-- Formulation (iv) -*- Formulation (v) 0- -2- Marketed Product 0 20 40 60 80 Time (min) Fig. 1 |
