Abstract

Ketoprofen is a medicinal compound derivative of phenyl alkanoic acid that works as an anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and analgesic. In the Biopharmaceutical Classification Systems, ketoprofen is a class II drug with high permeability but low solubility. Due to its low solubility, the absorption and bioavailability of ketoprofen are very limited, which can affect its therapeutic effectiveness. This study aimed to increase ketoprofen's solubility by forming multicomponent solids using 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid coformer with adding hydrophilic polymers ((hydroxypropyl)methylcellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone K90, and polyethylene glycol 4000). The results showed that ketoprofen with 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid coformer prepared using the solvent evaporation method formed a eutectic mixture. Adding hydrophilic polymers to the ketoprofen - 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid multicomponent solid increased the crystallinity and decreased the melting point of the multicomponent solids. The multicomponent solids of ketoprofen - 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid with the addition of hydrophilic polymers had solubility and dissolution efficiency significantly higher (p<0.05) than the ketoprofen - 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid multicomponent solids without hydrophilic polymers.

Abstract

Ketoprofen is a potent non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug compound but is difficult to dissolve in water. This research aims to increase the solubility of ketoprofen through cocrystallization using a urea coformer with the addition of the inorganic salt NaCl. Cocrystallization was carried out using the solvent evaporation method using methanol. The characterization of the cocrystal results included PXRD, DSC, and FTIR. At the same time, the solubility evaluation was carried out using a solubility test in distilled water and a dissolution test in phosphate buffer media pH 7.4. The results showed that ketoprofen forms a cocrystal with the urea coformer, whereas adding NaCl produces a ketoprofen-urea-NaCl cocrystal with a lower crystallinity and melting point. The solubility of ketoprofen-urea-NaCl cocrystals in distilled water was 183.82 ± 2.84 mg/L, while ketoprofen-urea and ketoprofen cocrystals were 174.23 ± 6.83 and 171.12 ± 6.29 mg/L, respectively. The dissolution test in phosphate buffer medium pH 7.4 showed the dissolution rate of ketoprofen-urea-NaCl cocrystals > ketoprofen-urea cocrystals > ketoprofen.
