Strategies to improve amiodarone bioavailability in post operative atrial fibrillation
Owing to the poor water-solubility and/or first-pass metabolism leading to a low bioavailability of AMD, several approaches have been studied by scientists for a solution. Inclusion complex and solid dispersions have been effective in improving the solubility of AMD whereas nanomedicine offers an excellent platform for overcoming all the problems of bioavailability. Nanocarriers, liposomes and LNCs have been effectively used in experimental studies for the same. Epicardial application of AMD hydrogels have been clinically evaluated to improve the bioavailability of AMD in post operative atrial fibrillation whereas a bilayered transdermal patch applied on epicardium was also found to be equally effective in goat.
