Abstract: The pharmaceutical sector continues to face difficulties with poorly soluble drug solubility.
Insufficiently soluble drugs have low bioavailability, and their effectiveness is frequently
affected. Numerous approaches have been developed in response to this challenge, including using
various dosage forms, solid dispersions, nano-suspensions, self-emulsifying drug delivery
systems, and cyclodextrin complexes. By improving drug dissolving, decreasing drug particle
size, and increasing drug dispersion, these dosage forms seek to increase drug solubility. Nanotechnology
is one of the latest advances that has the potential to revolutionize the delivery of
drugs and significantly improve the solubility of drugs that are now poorly soluble. Since they
have a larger surface area and can pass through biological barriers, nanoparticles are particularly
well suited for the delivery of drugs. These technologies can potentially enable the development
of more effective and efficient drug formulations for the treatment of various diseases. In addition,
the review highlights recent advances in the field, including emerging technologies such as
nanotechnology, which can revolutionize drug delivery and significantly improve the solubility of
poorly soluble drugs with their potential applications.
