Development, characterization, comparative pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies of iloperidone solid SMEDDS and liquisolid compact

Iloperidone (ILO) is an anti-psychotic, used in schizophrenia. It has low bioavailability (36%) due to low solubility and first pass effect. Oral solid self microemulsifying drug delivery system (SMEDDS) and liquisolid compact (LSC) of ILO were developed. The hypothesis is to test in vivo performance (PK and PD effects) of these delivery systems, as both systems improve dissolution. Based on solubility Capmul MCM, Labrafac WL 1349 were selected...
