Abstract

In the present study, new indomethacin formulations were developed in order to enhance the indomethacin dissolution rate by preparing solid dispersions using the freeze-drying method. The degree of alterations in the crystallinity of indomethacin was assessed according to the preparation method and by the addition of low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose. Solid dispersions improved the dissolution rate of indomethacin. Combined use of scanning electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry revealed the basis of the increase in dissolution rate of indomethacin when formulated as low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose solid dispersions.
