Abstract
This work aimed to develop and characterize a water-soluble, high-release active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) composite based on the practically water-insoluble API N-butyl-N-methyl-1-phenylpyrrolo[1,2-a]pyrazine-3-carboxamide (GML-3), a substance with antidepressant and anxiolytic action. This allows to ensure the bioavailability of the medicinal product of combined action. Composites obtained by the method of creating amorphous solid dispersions, where polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) or Soluplus(®) was used as a polymer, were studied for crystallinity, stability and the release of API from the composite into purified water. The resulting differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), powder X-ray diffractometry (PXRD), and dissolution test data indicate that the resulting composites are amorphous at 1:15 API: polymer ratios for PVP and 1:5 for Soluplus(®), which ensures the solubility of GML-3 in purified water and maintaining the supercritical state in solution.
