Improved pharmacokinetics and antihyperlipidemic efficacy of rosuvastatin-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers

In the present study, rosuvastatin calcium-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers were developed and optimized for improved efficacy. The ROS-Ca-loaded NLC was prepared using melt emulsification ultrasonication technique and optimized by Box–Behnken statistical design. The optimized NLC composed of glyceryl monostearate (solid lipid) and capmul MCM EP (liquid lipid) as lipid phase (3% w/v), poloxamer 188 (1%) and tween 80 (1%) as surfactant. The...
