Enhancement of bioavailability of herbal drugs for treating viral therapy using SNEDDS as the delivery system

Abstract

SNEDDS were developed with the objective of treating low bioavailability of drugs for antiviral drugs due to its low solubility. The scientist has increased their interest in improving bioavailability and absorption of poorly-water soluble drugs using Self-Emulsifying lipid technology. SNEDDS was an isocratic mixture contains an Oil, Surfactant, Co-surfactant, and Drug in accurate amount. The SNEDDS was primarily prepared as liquid-SNEDDS, but S-SNEDDS was more stable as compared to L-SNEDDS. As viral infection was major threat for people due to its limited efficacy and Serious adverse effects. The most damaging viral diseases was treated with help of SNEDDS as delivery system. They were a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. The plant and plant source were major source from which the extracted metabolites used for synthesis of drug through metabolic pathway. The phytochemicals and extracts were better and safe alternative for synthetic drugs. The phytochemicals like Curcumin, Myricetin, Apigenin etc. used as drug for treating antivirals using SNEDDS. This technique was used for quantitative and qualitative analysis. Also, the ternary phase diagram gives dramatic representation of Oil, surfactant and Co-surfactant which shows its concentration. Some characterization techniques were Droplet size, Zeta potential, XRD, DSC, FTIR, and TGA. Also, QbD provides a platform for systemic production of drug formulations. QbD was used for its better bioavailability.
