ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that inhibiting crystallization by HPMCAS played a key role in enhancing dissolution and absorption of piperine (Pip) from its amorphous solid dispersion (ASD). Nucleation induction time and supersaturation tests were used to evaluate the ability of the polymers to inhibit crystallization of Pip. The prepared solid dispersions were characterized by DSC and FTIR. The dissolution rate of Pip from its ASDs was assayed by a dissolution test. Pip permeability was investigated by single-pass intestinal perfusion studies. The order of the ability of polymers to inhibit Pip crystallization was HF > MF > LF > L100-55. The best inhibition effect of HF can be attributed to its hydrophobicity and steric hindrance. Pip is amorphous in polymer matrices when the ratio of Pip/HPMCAS is lower than 1 : 1 and Pip/L100-55 is lower than 3 : 1. IR spectra show that there are hydrogen bonds between the amide groups of Pip and the carboxyl groups of polymer. The order of the ability of polymers to enhance Pip dissolution is HF > MF > LF > L100-55, which coincided with the ability of polymers to inhibit Pip crystallization. Increased apparent permeability via HF-induced supersaturation and decreased apparent permeability via solubilization with L100-55 are demonstrated. Nucleation induction time and supersaturation tests may be used to screen appropriate polymers for preparing ASDs.
