Use of polymer combinations in the preparation of solid dispersions of a thermally unstable drug by hot-melt extrusion

The objective of the study was to prepare solid dispersions containing a thermally unstable drug by hot-melt extrusion (HME). Carbamazepine (CBZ) was selected as model drug and combinations of Kollidon VA64 (VA64), Soluplus (SOL) and Eudragit EPO (EPO) were utilized as carriers. Preformulation was c...
