| Abstract: |
The article offers information on the active pharmaceutical ingredients (APis) with adequate aqueous solubility are formulated with a variety of components. It discusses that a lack of bioavailability is not the only concern when formulating a drug; developers must also consider the chemical stability of these compounds; and mentions that the enhanced bioavailability of an API means that a greater proportion of the active compound can reach a patient's systemic circulation. |
