Reciprocal Powered Time model for Release Kinetic Analysis of Ibuprofen Solid Dispersions in Oleaster Powder, Microcrystalline Cellulose and Crospovidone

Abstract

An improved derivation for RPT model was provided which the parameter of the model, t50%, unlike to previous derivations was related to the most important property of the drug i.e. its solubility. The model described very well drug release kinetics from the solid dispersions. Cogrinding was an effective technique in enhancing dissolution rate of ibuprofen. Elaeagnus angostifolia fruit powder was suggested as a novel potential hydrophilic carrier in preparing solid dispersion of ibuprofen.
