1. Improve drug solubility and stability By adding surfactants, the wetting and dispersion properties of drug particles are significantly improved, thereby accelerating the dissolution rate of drugs. In addition, surfactants can interact with drug components to form a protective layer, effectively resisting environmental factors and improving drug stability. Surfactant
2. Building a drug delivery system Surfactants play a central role in constructing drug delivery systems, such as liposomes, nanoparticles, and microemulsions. They achieve targeted delivery and sustained release of drugs by adjusting the particle size, stability, and release behavior of the system, thereby improving therapeutic efficacy and reducing side effects.
3. As an auxiliary material to optimize the performance of pharmaceuticals In the preparation process of pharmaceutical preparations, surfactants are often used as excipients to optimize the various properties of the drug. For example, in emulsions and suspensions, surfactants help form stable dosage forms, ensuring uniform distribution and long-term stability of drug components. In summary, the application of surfactants in the field of pharmaceuticals has profound significance. They not only significantly improve the physical and chemical properties of drugs, but also provide strong support for drug development and production. With the continuous advancement of science and technology, we have reason to believe that the application of surfactants in the field of pharmaceuticals will become more extensive and in-depth.
