Among the different methods used to increase the aqueous drug solubility, the preparation of a solid dispersion with a soluble carrier represents an interesting formulative approach. We substituted polyvinylalcohol with triethyleneglycolmonoethylether and obtained a suitable material for the formulation of a solid dispersion of progesterone, by spray-drying. In particular, we evaluated the influence of the polyvinylalcohol substitution degree and the polymer-drug weight ratios in the preparative mixture on the progesterone dissolution rate in the aqueous environment.

Abstract
Among the different methods used to increase the aqueous drug solubility, the preparation of a solid dispersion with a soluble carrier represents an interesting formulative approach. We substituted polyvinylalcohol with triethyleneglycolmonoethylether and obtained a suitable material for the formulation of a solid dispersion of progesterone, by spray-drying. In particular, we evaluated the influence of the polyvinylalcohol substitution degree and the polymer-drug weight ratios in the preparative mixture on the progesterone dissolution rate in the aqueous environment.
