Nanostructured liquid crystalline particles provide long duration sustained-release effect for a poorly water soluble drug after oral administration

Research output: Contribution to journalArticleResearchpeer-review

Abstract

This study is the first to demonstrate the ability of nanostructured liquid crystal particles to sustain the absorption of a poorly water soluble drug after oral administration. Cubic (V2) liquid crystalline nanostructured particles (cubosomes) formed from phytantriol (PHY) were shown to sustain the absorption of cinnarizine (CZ) beyond 48 h after oral administration to rats.
