Third-Generation Solid Dispersion Through Lyophilization Enhanced Oral Bioavailability of Resveratrol.

ABSTRACT: Resveratrol (RES) is a biopharmaceutical classification system (BCS) class II compound with low solubility and high permeability. Several strategies have been explored to overcome the low bioavailability of RES, making the formation of solid dispersions (SDs) one of the most promising. This study aimed at the development of a RES third-generation SD prepared by lyophilization as a strategy to improve RES solubility, dissolution, and oral bioavailability. Eudragit E PO was selected as the hydrophilic carrier in a 1:2 (RES:carrier) ratio, and Gelucire 44/14 as the surfactant, at 16% (w/w) of RES. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), polarized light microscopy (PLM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), and pa
