Pharmaceutical Cocrystals of Pain Relieving Drugs
Abstract: Cocrystallisation of two components into one crystal form can enhance the solid-state properties of drug compounds. Cocrystals are considered as the next generation modified-active pharmaceutical ingredients with improved physical-chemical, (aqueous solubility, dissolution, hygroscopicity, bioavailability, stability, increase of melting point, purity of an active pharmaceutical ingredients (API), intellectual property positions) and pharmacokinetic properties. Cocrystal formation may overcome dissolution problems of highly lipophilic APIs because the new crystalline lattice being formed often …
