RESUMO
The therapeutic potential of two important flavonoids, i.e. hesperidin and naringenin, remains unutilized due to pharmacokinetics issues, especially poor aqueous solubility. Hydrotropic solid dispersions with different agents like sodium salicylate, niacinamide, benzoic acid, and urea etc. can change the solubility profile of poorly soluble drugs. The current study investigated the potential of different hydrotropic agents in improving the solubility of both natural bioactives. The hydrotropic solid dispersion in 1:3 w/w drug: sodium salicylate ratio showed maximum solubility and dissolution amongst all the tested hydrotropes. This novel and economical approach could be explored for other poorly soluble pharmaceuticals.
