Exploring oral drug delivery: In vitro release and mathematical modeling of hydrophobic drug (Na-L-thyroxine) and its cyclodextrin inclusion complex in chitosan microparticles.

Na-l-Thyroxine (Na-l-Thy) is a frequently prescribed synthetic hormone for hypothyroidism treatment. Despite its efficacy, its hydrophobic nature poses a challenge for achieving optimal bioavailability. To address this, researchers explored various delivery methods, including micro-formulations and nano-formulations, for precise and prolonged release of hydrophobic and hydrophilic drugs. In this study, we developed micro-formulations with cyclodextrin and chitosan. Docking studies identified γ-cyclodextrin as the preferred option for forming a stable complex with Na-l-Thyroxine compared to α, and ß-cyclodextrins. Two micro-formulations were prepared compared: Na-l-Thyroxine loaded on chitosan (CS + Na-l-Thy) and Na-l-Thyroxine and γ-cyclodextrin inclusion complex (IC) loaded on chitosan (CS + IC). CS + IC exhibited superior encapsulation efficiency (91.25 %) and loading capacity (18.62 %) compared to CS + Na-l-Thy (encapsulation efficiency: 70.24 %, loading capacity: 21.18 %). Characterization using FTIR, SEM, and TGA validated successful encapsulation of Na-l-Thy in spherical microparticles with high thermal stability. In-vitro release studies at pH 1.2 and 7.4 showed that the CS + IC microparticles displayed gradual, consistent drug release compared to CS + Na-l-Thy -Thy. Both formulations showed faster release at pH 1.2 than at pH 7.4. Reaction kinetics analysis of release studies of CS + Na-l-Thy and CS + IC were best described by Higuchi kinetic model and Korsemeyer-Peppas kinetic model respectively. This study suggests that the CS + IC microparticles are an effective and stable delivery system for sustained release of hydrophobic Na-l-Thy.

Alizarin-embedded γ-cyclodextrin-based metal-organic framework in a methylcellulose/polyvinyl alcohol film for maintaining and monitoring grass carp freshness.

Multifunctional packaging films that monitor and maintain fish freshness hold significant potential for use in the food industry. This study introduces a multifunctional intelligent packaging film comprising alizarin (ALI)-embedded cubic γ-cyclodextrin metal-organic frameworks (γ-CD-MOFs) (denoted as γ-CD-MOFs@ALI) in a methylcellulose/polyvinyl alcohol (MP)-based matrix to achieve colorimetric monitoring and enhanced preservation of fish freshness. The MP/γ-CD-MOFs@ALI reveals a rapid color transition in 3 min from yellow color progressively darkens to purple as the pH increases from 2.0 to 10.0. And it is proved that the as-prepared film owns high antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria (S. aureus), impressive ABTS+ radical scavenging rates of 85.54 ± 1.25 %, and effective ALI sustained-release properties. The intelligent packaging film exhibits an excellent colorimetric response to total volatile basic nitrogen and provides exceptional freshness preservation performance, effectively prolonging the shelf life of Ctenopharyngodon idella (grass carp) under 25 °C to 42 h.

Trapping and reversing neuromuscular blocking agent by anionic pillar[5]arenes: Understanding the structure-affinity-reversal effects.

Selective relaxant binding agents (SRBA) have great potential in clinical surgeries for the precise reversal of neuromuscular blockades. Understanding the relationship between the structure-affinity-reversal effects of SRBA and neuromuscular blockade is crucial for the design of new SRBAs, which has rarely been explored. Seven anionic pillar[5]arenes (AP5As) with different aliphatic chains and anionic groups at both edges were designed. Their binding affinities to the neuromuscular blocking agent decamonium bromide (DMBr) were investigated using 1H NMR, isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), and theoretical calculations. The results indicate that the capture of DMBr by AP5As is primarily driven by electrostatic interactions, ion-dipole interactions and C-H‧‧‧π interactions. The optimal size matching between the carboxylate AP5As and DMBr was ∼0.80. The binding affinity increased with an increase in the charge quantity of AP5As. Further animal experiments indicated that the reversal efficiency increased with increasing binding affinity for carboxylate or phosphonate AP5As. However, phosphonate AP5As exhibited lower reversal efficiencies than carboxylate AP5As, despite having stronger affinities with DMBr. By understanding the structure-affinity-reversal relationships, this study provides valuable insights into the design of innovative SRBAs for reversing neuromuscular blockade.

Covalent modification of γ-cyclodextrin with geraniol: An antibacterial agent with good thermal stability, solubility and biocompatibility.

Geraniol (Ger) is an essential oil molecule with excellent biological activity. High hydrophobicity and volatility limit its practical application. Cyclodextrins (CDs) are water-soluble cyclic oligosaccharides with hydrophobic cavities. Physical encapsulation of CDs to improve the solubility and stability of essential oil molecules is not satisfactory. Therefore, this study synthesized the γ-CD derivative (γ-CD-Ger) by grafting Ger onto γ-CD using a bromide-mediated method. Compared to the inclusion complexes (γ-CD/Ger) formed by both, the derivatives exhibit better solubility and thermal stability. The derivative has better antibacterial activity when the ratio of γ-CD to Ger was 1:2. In addition, the derivatives did not exhibit cytotoxic and hemolytic properties. These results indicate that this research provides a water-soluble antibacterial agent with a wide range of promising applications and offers new ideas for the application of alcohol hydrophobic molecules in aqueous systems.

Unraveling the molecular dynamics of sugammadex-rocuronium complexation: A blueprint for cyclodextrin drug design.

Sugammadex, marketed as Bridion™, is an approved cyclodextrin (CD) based drug for the reversal of neuromuscular blockade in adults undergoing surgery. Sugammadex forms an inclusion complex with the neuromuscular blocking agent (NMBA) rocuronium, allowing rapid reversal of muscle paralysis. In silico methods have been developed for studying CD inclusion complexes, aimed at accurately predicting their structural, energetic, dynamic, and kinetic properties, as well as binding constants. Here, a computational study aimed at characterizing the sugammadex-rocuronium system from the perspective of docking calculations, free molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, and biased metadynamics simulations with potential of mean force (PMF) calculations is presented. The aim is to provide detailed information about this system, as well as to use it as a model system for validation of the methods. This method predicts results in line with experimental evidence for both the optimal structure and the quantitative value for the binding constant. Interestingly, there is a less profound preference for the orientation than might be assumed based on electrostatic interactions, suggesting that both orientations may exist in solution. These results show that this technology can efficiently analyze CD inclusion complexes and could be used to facilitate the development and optimization of novel applications for CDs.

Sugammadex shortens operation time and improves operation turnover efficacy in video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery.

BACKGROUND: This study compared sugammadex and neostigmine as agents for routine neuromuscular blockade reversal in video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) to determine the optimal choice that achieves a shorter operation time and improved turnover efficiency while enhancing postoperative outcomes and ensuring patient safety during thoracic surgery. METHODS: This prospective study, conducted from July 2022 to March 2023, compared the effect of sugammadex and neostigmine on operation time and turnover efficiency in VATS, involving 60 participants randomly assigned to either group, with the primary objective of identifying the optimal anesthesia reversal choice for improved outcomes and patient safety during thoracic surgery. RESULTS: In the study, the sugammadex group showed a significantly shorter total operation room occupancy time (130 ± 7 vs 157 ± 7 minutes; p = 0.009) than the neostigmine group. Patients in the neostigmine group had higher mean pulse rates when leaving the operation room (85 ± 3 vs 73 ± 3 beats/min; p = 0.002) and 120 minutes later in the postanesthesia care unit (76 ± 2 vs 68 ± 2; p = 0.016). CONCLUSION: This study's findings suggest that sugammadex may enhance total operating room occupancy time, operation turnover efficacy, and respiratory recovery outcomes in VATS, potentially improving patient care and anesthesia management.

Macrocycles and Acyclic Cucurbit[n]urils as Pseudo[2]catenane Partners for Long-Acting Neuromuscular Blocks and Rapid Reversal In Vivo.

Long-acting neuromuscular blocks followed by rapid reversal may provide prolonged surgeries with improved conditions by omitting repetitive or continuous administration of the neuromuscular blocking agent (NMBA), eliminating residual neuromuscular block and minimizing postoperative recovery, which, however, is not clinically available. Here, we demonstrate that imidazolium-based macrocycles (IMCs) and acyclic cucurbit[n]urils (ACBs) can form such partners by functioning as long-acting NMBAs and rapid reversal agents through a pseudo[2]catenation mechanism based on stable complexation with Ka values of over 109 M-1. In vivo experiments with rats reveal that, at the dose of 2- and 3-fold ED90, one IMC attains a duration of action corresponding to 158 or 442 min for human adults, covering most of prolonged surgeries. The block can be reversed by one ACB with recovery time significantly shorter than that achieved by sugammadex for reversing the block of rocuronium, the clinically most widely used intermediate-acting NMBA.

γ-Cyclodextrin metal-organic frameworks as the promising carrier for pulmonary delivery of cyclosporine A.

γ-Cyclodextrin metal-organic frameworks (CD-MOFs) are considered as a green and biocompatible material with great potential in drug delivery systems. Original CD-MOFs show the poor aerosol properties, which limit the application in pulmonary drug delivery. To improve the in vitro deposition properties, herein, we synthesized CD-MOFs by the vapor diffusion method using a series of modulators to achieve better pulmonary delivery of cyclosporine A (CsA). The results showed that blank CD-MOFs and drug loaded CD-MOFs prepared with different modulators all preserved the cubical shape, and exhibited the similar crystal form, structural characteristics, thermal behaviors and release properties. In addition, drug loaded CD-MOFs prepared with polyethylene glycol 10000 (PEG 10000) as a modulator exhibited better in vitro aerosol performance than those of synthesized using other modulators, and the in vivo pharmacokinetics data demonstrated that the bioavailability of CsA could be significantly enhanced by inhalation administration of drug loaded CD-MOFs compared with oral administration of Neoral®. The repeated dose inhalation toxicity also confirmed the fine biocompatibility of CD-MOFs as the carrier for pulmonary drug delivery. Therefore, the results demonstrated CD-MOFs as the promising carrier could be used for pulmonary drug delivery.

Removal of fluorouracil from aqueous environment using magnetite graphene oxide modified with γ-cyclodextrin.

Fluorouracil (FU) is a widely utilized antineoplastic medication in the pharmaceutical industry for combating gastrointestinal cancers. However, its presence in wastewater originating from pharmaceutical facilities and hospital effluents has a potential effect on DNA, and cannot be efficiently eliminated through conventional treatment methods. Consequently, the adoption of advanced technologies becomes crucial for effectively treating such wastewater. Accordingly, this study investigated the efficiency of magnetite graphene oxide nanocomposite functionalized with γ-cyclodextrin for removing fluorouracil from aqueous solutions. The magnetite graphene oxide nanocomposite functionalized with γ-cyclodextrin was synthesized via the hydrothermal method. Next, the effect of pH, temperature, adsorbent content, and contact time on the fluorouracil removal efficiency was explored. Ultimately, the experimental data were matched against Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin isotherms and Kinetic models. Accordingly, the efficiency of the absorbent used was dependent on the pH, contact time, temperature, and initial concentration of the adsorbent. The results indicated that the maximum removal efficiency for fluorouracil was achieved within the contact time of 45 min and adsorbent content of 0.020 g. In addition, the optimal pH for removing the medicine was 7. The conditions of the adsorption process followed Langmuir isotherm with correlation coefficients of 0.992 and a quasi-second kinetic model with a correlation coefficient of 0.999, with the maximum adsorption capacity of the adsorbent synthesized for the evaluated medicine estimated as 190.9 mg/g. The results showed that the magnetite graphene oxide nanocomposite functionalized with γ-cyclodextrin could be used as an effective and available adsorbent for removing fluorouracil from pharmaceutical wastewater.

Sugammadex Versus Neostigmine for Reversal of Neuromuscular Blockade in Patients With Severe Renal Impairment: A Randomized, Double-Blinded Study.

BACKGROUND: Sugammadex is not advised for patients with severe renal impairment, but has been shown in a variety of other populations to be superior to neostigmine for reversal of neuromuscular blockade. The objective of this study was to determine if reversal of rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade with sugammadex versus reversal of cisatracurium-induced neuromuscular blockade with neostigmine results in a faster return to a train-of-four ratio (TOFR) ≥90% in patients with severe renal impairment. METHODS: We conducted a prospective, randomized, blinded, controlled trial at a large county hospital. A total of 49 patients were enrolled. Inclusion criteria included patients age ≥18, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status III and IV, with a creatinine clearance <30 mL/min, undergoing general anesthesia with expected surgical duration ≥2 hours and necessitating neuromuscular blockade. Subjects received either cisatracurium 0.2 mg/kg or rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg for induction of anesthesia to facilitate tracheal intubation. Subjects were kept at moderate neuromuscular blockade during surgery and received either 2 mg/kg sugammadex or 50 µg/kg neostigmine with 10 µg/kg glycopyrrolate for reversal of neuromuscular blockade. Neuromuscular monitoring was performed with electromyography (TwitchView), and the TOFR was recorded every minute after administration of the reversal agent. The time from administration of neuromuscular reversal until the patient reached a TOFR ≥90% was recorded as the primary outcome. RESULTS: The mean time to recovery of TOFR ≥90% was significantly faster with sugammadex at 3.5 (±1.6) min compared with neostigmine at 14.8 (±6.1) min ( P < .0001; mean difference, 11.3 minutes; 95% confidence interval [CI], 9.0-13.5 minutes). There were no major adverse events in either group. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with severe renal impairment, neuromuscular blockade with rocuronium followed by reversal with sugammadex provides a significantly faster return of neuromuscular function compared to cisatracurium and neostigmine, without any major adverse effects.

Phase III clinical trial comparing the efficacy and safety of adamgammadex with sugammadex for reversal of rocuronium-induced neuromuscular block.

BACKGROUND: Preliminary clinical trials of adamgammadex, a new cyclodextrin-based selective reversal agent, have demonstrated its efficacy in reversing neuromuscular block by rocuronium. METHODS: This multicentre, randomised, double-blind, positive-controlled, non-inferiority phase III clinical trial compared the efficacy and safety of adamgammadex and sugammadex. We randomised 310 subjects to receive adamgammadex (4 mg kg-1) or sugammadex (2 mg kg-1) at reappearance of the second twitch of the train-of-four (TOF), and standard safety data were collected. RESULTS: For the primary outcome, the proportion of patients with TOF ratio ≥0.9 within 5 min was 98.7% in the adamgammadex group vs 100% in the sugammadex group, with a point estimate and 95% confidence interval (CI) of 1.3% (-4.6%, +1.3%); the lower limit was greater than the non-inferiority margin of -10%. For the key secondary outcome, the median (inter quartile range) time from the start of administration of adamgammadex or sugammadex to recovery of TOF ratio to 0.9 was 2.25 (1.75, 2.75) min and 1.75 (1.50, 2.00) min, respectively. The difference was 0.50 (95% CI: 0.25, 0.50); the upper limit was lower than the non-inferiority margin of 5 min. In addition, there were no inferior results observed in secondary outcomes. Adamgammadex had a lower incidence of adverse drug reactions compared with sugammadex (anaphylactic reaction, recurarisation, decreased heart rate, and laryngospasm; P=0.047). CONCLUSIONS: Adamgammadex was non-inferior to sugammadex with a possible lower incidence of adverse drug reactions compared with sugammadex. Adamgammadex may have a potential advantage in terms of its overall risk-benefit profile. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: Chinese Clinical Trial Registry, ChiCTR2000039525.

Sugammadex for reversal of moderate-to-deep rocuronium block in a clinical setting: A retrospective report of 10 dogs.

OBJECTIVE: To compare recovery times of sugammadex with spontaneous recovery from rocuronium-induced neuromuscular block (NMB) in dogs. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective, unmatchedcase-control study. ANIMALS: A total of 10 dogs administered sugammadex and 10 dogs recovering spontaneously from rocuronium-induced NMB. METHODS: Files of dogs administered rocuronium between March and August 2023 were inspected. The train-of-four (TOF) count at the time of sugammadex administration and the time between administration and TOF ratio >90% (recovery time) were recorded. The recovery time for those not administered reversal agents was considered from the first TOF value >0 until TOF ratio >90%. The dose of sugammadex and the cumulative dose of rocuronium were recorded. Rocuronium doses and recovery times were compared using Mann-Whitney tests. The coefficient of determination (R2) between the cumulative rocuronium dose and sugammadex dose and the recovery time were calculated. RESULTS: Dogs in the sugammadex and spontaneous recovery groups were administered intravenously (IV) 0.76 (0.4-2.6) and 0.61 (0.3-2.9) mg kg-1 of rocuronium, respectively (p = 0.325). Recovery time after 3.9 (2.9-5.5) mg kg-1 of sugammadex IV was 1 (1-3) minutes and was 20 (10-35) min for spontaneous recovery (p < 0.0001). The R2 for rocuronium and sugammadex doses and recovery times were 0.19 (p = 0.2) and 0.012 (p = 0.758). CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Sugammadex 2.9-5.5 mg kg-1 reversed moderate (TOF count 1-3) or deep (TOF count 0) rocuronium-induced NMB within 3 minutes, substantially faster than spontaneous recovery.

Analysis of the factors contributing to residual weakness after sugammadex administration in pediatric patients under 2 years of age.

BACKGROUND: Sugammadex reverses the neuromuscular blockade induced by rocuronium and vecuronium and is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for use in patients aged over 2 years. There is, however, a paucity of data regarding its dosing profile in infants and children younger than 2 years. AIMS: The aim of this study was to assess the risk of recurarization, or re-paralysis, in children under 2 years of age to increase awareness on the importance of appropriate neuromuscular blocked monitoring and reversal. METHODS: All patients aged ≤24 months who underwent an operative procedure at a tertiary medical center between January 1, 2018, and December 31, 2021, and received both rocuronium for neuromuscular blockade and sugammadex for neuromuscular blockade reversal, were identified in the electronic medical record. Patients were excluded from analysis if they (1) received vecuronium, cisatracurium, atracurium, or succinylcholine for neuromuscular blockade, (2) received neostigmine for reversal, or (3) underwent more than one operation within 24 h. We performed a survival analysis of sugammadex redose using a Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS: We reviewed 2923 records. Sugammadex was redosed in 123 (4.2%) cases. The median [IQR] time to redose was 7 [4-17] min, and the median [IQR] amount of redose administered was 2.74 [1.96-3.99] mg/kg. Increasing patient age (p < .01) and weight (p < .01) were associated with reduced hazard rate of sugammadex redose. For a patient of median weight, increasing age from 3 to 13 months was associated with a 53% risk reduction (HR: 0.47; 95% CI: 0.24-0.91). For a patient of median age, increasing weight from 4.7 to 9.2 kg was associated with 41% risk reduction (HR: 0.59; 95% CI: 0.32-1.07). We failed to detect any other associations. CONCLUSIONS: In this single-center, retrospective cohort study of pediatric surgery patients, there was an association between the hazard of sugammadex redose with both increased age and weight.

High-performance cation electrokinetic concentrator based on a γ-CD/QCS/PVA composite and microchip for evaluating the activity of P-glycoprotein without any interference from serum albumin.

The development of cation electrokinetic concentrators (CECs) has been hindered by the lack of commercial anion-exchange membranes (AEMs). This paper introduces a γ-cyclodextrin-modified quaternized chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol (γ-CD/QCS/PVA) composite as an AEM, which is combined with a microchip to fabricate a CEC. Remarkably, the CEC only concentrates cationic species, thereby overcoming the interference of the highly abundant, negatively charged serum albumin in the blood sample. P-Glycoprotein (P-gp) is recognized as an efflux transporter protein that influences the pharmacokinetics (PK) of various compounds. The CEC was used to evaluate the activity of P-gp by detecting the positively charged rhodamine 123 (Rho123 is a classical substrate of P-gp) with no interference from serum albumin in the serum sample. Using the CEC, the enrichment factor (EF) of Rho123 exceeded 105-fold under DC voltage application. The minimal sample consumption of the CEC (<10 µL) enables reduction of animal sacrifice in animal experiments. Here, the CEC has been applied to evaluate the transport activity of P-gp in in vitro and in vivo experiments by detecting Rho123 in the presence of P-gp inhibitors or agonists. The results are in good agreement with those reported in previous reports. Therefore, the CEC presents a promising application potential, owing to its simple fabrication process, high sensitivity, minimal sample consumption, lack of interference from serum albumin and low cost.

Exploration of the Conformational Scenario for α-, ß-, and γ-Cyclodextrins in Dry and Wet Conditions, from Monomers to Crystal Structures: A Quantum-Mechanical Study.

Cyclodextrins (CDs) constitute a class of cyclic oligosaccharides that are well recognized and largely applied in the drug delivery field, thanks to their biocompatibility, low cost, and the possibility to be derivatized in order to tune and optimize the complexation/release of the specific drug. The conformational flexibility of these systems is one of their key properties and requires a cost-effective methodology to be studied by combining the accuracy of results with the possibility of exploring a large set of conformations. In the present paper, we have explored the conformational potential energy surface of the monomers and dimers of α-, ß-, and γ-cyclodextrins (i.e., 6, 7, and 8 monomeric units, respectively) by means of fast but accurate semiempirical methods, which are then refined by state-of-the-art DFT functionals. Moreover, the crystal structure is considered for a more suitable comparison with the IR spectrum experimentally recorded. Calculations are carried out in the gas phase and in water environments, applying both implicit and explicit treatments. We show that the conformation of the studied molecules changes from the gas phase to the water, even if treated implicitly, thus modifying their complexation capability.

Reversal of rocuronium induced neuromuscular block with sugammadex in patients under 2 years of age. A series of 280 cases.

AIM: Neuromuscular muscle relaxants are still indispensable for surgical procedures requiring general anesthesia, and the use of these agents may result in postoperative residual curarization. Sugammadex may offer a distinct advantage to pediatric patients where residual neuromuscular blockade may be poorly tolerated. Sugammadex is approved for use in adults and children over two years. This is the main reason why large-scale studies could not be conducted in the group of patients younger than two years old. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sugammadex for reversing deep rocuronium-induced neuromuscular blockade in children under two years of age. METHODS: Pediatric patients younger than two years of age who underwent neurosurgery under sevoflurane anesthesia were included in the study. Neuromuscular block was achieved by the administration of rocuronium. It was antagonized by the administration of 5 mg/kg sugammadex and evaluated using train-of-four (TOF). Primary outcome measure was the time from sugammadex administration to return of the TOF ratio to 0,9. Postoperative adverse events were also recorded. RESULTS: Two hundred eighty patients (10 day-24 months of age; 3-18 kg) were included in this study. Reversal of deep rocuronium-induced neuromuscular block with sugammadex was rapid in all patients. No residual curarization or recurarization was observed. No adverse events or hypersensitivity reactions were observed after administration of sugammadex. CONCLUSION: Reversal of rocuronium-induced deep neuromuscular block in infants was rapid and safe. Sugammadex provided safe extubation in patients younger than two years of age who had undergone neurosurgery. Research Fund.

Solubility and Pharmacokinetic Profile Improvement of Griseofulvin through Supercritical Carbon Dioxide-Assisted Complexation with HP-γ-Cyclodextrin.

Since griseofulvin was marketed as a non-polyene antifungal antibiotic drug in 1958, its poor water solubility has been an issue for its wide applications, and over the last sixty years, many attempts have been made to increase its water solubility; however, a significant result has yet to be achieved. Through supercritical carbon dioxide-assisted cyclodextrin complexation with the addition of a trace amount of water-soluble polymer surfactant, the griseofulvin inclusion complex with HP-γ-cyclodextrin was prepared and confirmed. The 1:2 ratio of griseofulvin and HP-γ-cyclodextrin in the complex was determined based on its NMR study. After complexation with HP-γ-cyclodextrin, griseofulvin's water solubility was increased 477 times compared with that of griseofulvin alone, which is the best result thus far. The complex showed 90% of griseofulvin release in vitro in 10 min, in an in vivo dog pharmacokinetic study; the Cmax was increased from 0.52 µg/mL to 0.72 µg/mL, AUC0-12 was increased from 1.55 µg·h/mL to 2.75 µg·h/mL, the clearance was changed from 51.78 L/kg/h to 24.16 L/kg/h, and the half-life time was changed from 0.81 h to 1.56 h, indicating the obtained griseofulvin complex can be a more effective drug than griseofulvin alone.
