REVIEW ON ANTIHYPERLIPEDEMIA LIPOPHILIC DRUGS AND THEIR NOVEL FORMULATION APPROACHES
Journal Title: International Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 9, Issue 9
Abstract
It has been ranked as one of the greatest risk factors contributing to prevalence and severity of coronary heart diseases (CHD). CHD, stroke, atherosclerosis and hyperlipidemia are the primary cause of death. The increased levels of serum total cholesterol and low density lipoprotein (LDL) have been reported as a primary risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Hyperlipidemia is irregularly elevated levels of any or all lipids or lipoproteins in the blood i.e. fatty substances are found in the blood. Many drugs have been reported to inihibit the enzymes responsible for the synthesis of Cholesterol. Wherein, solubility is the key parameter for any active ingredient to maintain the desired therapeutic effects. Since various types of formulations are being currently prepared to enhance its solubility which in turn may improve the bioavailability of the drug? Studies reveal that different methodologies were carried out to overcome the bioavailability issue which is the key limiting factor. The present study focuses on the different types of novel formulation approaches of lipid soluble drug.
