Popis: The release of several nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) including analgin, paracetamol, orthofen, naproxen, aspirin, and sodium salicylate from various lipophilic suppository bases has been investigated in vitro. Individual release patterns of NSAIDs from suppositories and the significant dependence of this process on the chemical nature of the base and surfactant were shown. It was found that a determining factor in the selection of a rational suppository base is the completeness of drug release from the suppositories because the correspondence of most of the studied suppositories to pharmacopoeial requirements for melting point and total deformation time did not guarantee that the drugs had high bioavailability. The optimum bases from a biopharmaceutical viewpoint for production of suppositories of the aforementioned NSAIDs were found. The results can be used by scientific and commercial laboratories for the creation of the optimum base for production of suppositories and other NSAID medicinal forms and for the development of a common approach to evaluating the quality of suppositories.
