Bioavailability Enhancement > Poorly permeable drugs
         
  Highly water soluble drugs (Class III), while easily soluble in biological liquids, cannot effectively traverse epithelial membranes (composed of lipid layers) and reach the bloodstream.
 
With Biodis® technology, Physica Pharma offers a solution which addresses the issue of permeability.
Biodis® technology is based on the application of reactive lipid based carriers. These carriers bind to the drug in a non-covalent manner thus forming ion-pairs.

The new molecular complex is absorbed more efficiently across biological barriers due to its enhanced diffusion properties through lipid layers.
 
   
 

Case studies

The case studies presented here demonstrate the effectiveness of Biodis® technology on poorly permeable compounds. They illustrate the application of Biodis® to increase drug plasma concentration or to increase drug permeability trough in vitro cells models.
