On the use of linear model-based optimization to obtain optimum solubility permeability balance (OSPB) in cinnarizine-hydrotropic blends
JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR LIQUIDS(2023)
Abstract
The objectives of this work are (1) To scrutinize the various hydrotropes for acting as cinnarizine solubility augmenting excipient, (2) To show the existence of solubility-permeability interplay phenomenon on cinnarizine-hydrotrope blend through an in vitro experimental set up and (3) To apply linear model-based optimization (by using Design Expert (R) software) for finding out optimum solubility permeability balance on cinnarizine-hydrotrope blend. Among the tested six-different hydrotropic molecules such as nicotinamide, sodium acetate, sodium benzoate, sodium citrate, sodium salicylate and urea, the cinnarizine solubility values were found to increase from 2.39 +/- 0.00 to 57.98 +/- 0.02 and 150.42 +/- 0.02 mu g/ml, respectively, for sodium benzoate and sodium salicylate at 40 % w/v concentration levels. However, the solubility enhancement effect produced by these two hydrotropic molecules was occurred at the expense of cinnarizine permeability value (from 44.00 x 10-5 to 35.00 +/- 12.00 (x10- 5) cm/sec) indicating the presence of solubility-permeability interplay/tradeoff phenomenon. Indeed, the Box-Behnken design yielded the optimized formula for preparing cinnarizinehydrotrope blends possessing the maximum drug solubility value without significant reduction of drug permeability value. Hence, the quality by design approach plays a crucial role in optimizing the cinnarizinehydrotropic formulations.
