RESUMEN
Supramolecular structures based on cyclodextrins have been extensively used for drug delivery systems over decades. However, combining host and guest molecules in a pharmaceutical formulation is not a trivial process, being one of the majors concern the inclusion complex compatibility with other excipients presented in the final formulation. Herein, experimental and theoretical calculations were used to investigate the competition of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) with atenolol (ATE) or losartan (LOS), antihypertensive drugs widely used in the treatment of hypertension. Our findings, using nuclear magnetic resonance and isothermal titrations calorimetry experiments and molecular dynamic simulations demonstrated that LOS remain included into CD cavity after excipient (SDS) addition, which was not verified for ATE ternary system, being the drug displaced by SDS molecule.
