Abstract

This book describes the physicochemical fundamentals and biomedical principles of drug solubility. Methods to study and predict solubility in silico and in vitro are described and the role of solubility in a medicinal chemistry and pharmaceutical industry context are discussed. Approaches to modify and control solubility of a drug during the manufacturing process and of the pharmaceutical product are essential practical aspects of this book.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a book / chapter, done in computer models (in silico), not in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
