ABSTRACT:
The novel method of using nano co-crystals to increase the solubility, stability, and bioavailability of poorly soluble medications is covered in this review. It draws attention to the fact that many pharmaceutical medications have solubility issues, and by fusing the advantages of crystal and co-crystal technology, nano co-crystals present a possible remedy. This method improves oral bioavailability and medication dissolving rates by utilizing nanoscale formulations. The study addresses advanced characterisation techniques, examines the formulation uses of nano co-crystals in drug development, and evaluates a variety of preparation methodologies, including top-down and bottom-up approaches. It highlights how this technology has the ability to completely transform the pharmaceutical sector by enhancing therapeutic efficacy and medication delivery.
