In vitro dissolution profiles were obtained in phosphate buffer and hydrochloric acid media, which were fitted to several mathematical models. Plasma concentrations were obtained from 48 healthy dogs to achieve in vivo profiles. Therapeutic concentrations were observed for 60 h for formulation 1 and 4, 48 h for formulation 2 and 3 and 24 h for the sample of doxycycline. None of the pharmacokinetic parameter differed significantly between formulation 1 and 2 or between formulation 3 and 4; however, doxycycline differed significantly in comparison. The in vivo-in vitro correlation coefficient obtained from point-to-point analysis >0.999 for formulation 3 and 4 and >0.9581 for the others. To validate the model, the absorbed fractions for all formulations were estimated to predict plasma concentration profiles. In conclusion, adequate in vitro-in vivo correlation was established for long-acting formulations of doxycycline indicating that in vitro dissolution tests could be used as a surrogate for bioavailability studies.Item type | Current location | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item holds |
