Thermodynamic Assessment of the Pyrazinamide Dissolution Process in Some Organic Solvents.

ABSTRACT: Pyrazinamide is a first line drug used for the treatment of tuberculosis, a pathology that caused the death of more than 1.3 million people in the world during 2022, according to WHO, being a drug of current interest due to its relevance in pharmaceutical and medical sciences. In this context, solubility is one of the most important physicochemical parameters in the development and/or optimization of new pharmaceutical forms, so the present work aims to present a thermodynamic study of the solubility of pyrazinamide in nine organic solvents of pharmaceutical interest. Using the shake-flask method and UV/Vis spectrophotometry, the solubility of this drug was determined at 9 temperatures; the maximum solubility was obtained in dimethyl sulfoxide at 318.15 K (x2=0.0816±0.004) and the minimum
