โœฆ Synopsis


The LD50 values were utilized to assess the relative rate of absorption of two very poorly soluble drugs. Formulations of these drugs were studied by micronization; addition of surfactant, alkaline or buffering agents, and/or bile salts; coprecipitation; melt or fusion techniques; or granulation with hydrophilic agents. Differences in toxicities were demonstrated from formulations compared to pure drugs by the LD50 method. This study shows that the LD50 is a practical, rapid method of achieving comparative evaluations of drug formulations.

Pharmacokinetic studies in mice traditionally require one animal per time point, resulting in dosing and euthanizing a large number of animals and producing suboptimal quality of pharmacokinetic data due to inter-animal variability and dosing error. These studies are time-consuming and labor-intensi
