摘要
The physicochemical properties of drugs and drug–additive interactions have great importance to elucidate the pharmacological effect of the drug formulations. Plentiful pharmacologically active molecules are amphiphilic in nature. Knowledge about self-assembly, aggregate morphology as well as size and interfacial/micellar properties of such drugs in presence of pharmaceutical excipients (surfactants, electrolytes, polymers, hydrotropes, etc.) is vital from the fundamental and practical point of view. This article reviews the micellar properties and phase separation of drugs as well as drug–additive systems in aqueous and organic solvent–water mixed media. Results of several pharmaceutical excipients/surfactants assisted drug mixed systems have been analyzed through thermodynamic parameters which provide a comprehensive account on the physicochemical aspects of drug/drug–additives systems. Along with amphiphilic drugs, studies of a few non surface-active drugs have also been reviewed. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.
