ABSTRACT

The solid complex of gliclazide and β-cyclodextrin was prepared by neutralization method and the precipitation solvent evaporation method was used to prepare gliclazide nanospheres. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry were used to examine whether gliclazide solid complex and gliclazide nanospheres were successfully formed in this study. The dissolution rate of gliclazide from its nanospheres was faster than its solid complex and pure drug. The morphology of particles for nanospheres showed no crystal character of gliclazide. In summary, the results indicate that nanotechnology provides better effects in solubility and dissolution rate of gliclazide than neutralization method.
