Formulation of a fast-disintegrating drug delivery system from cyclodextrin/naproxen inclusion complex nanofibrous films Naproxen is a well-known non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that suffers from limited water solubility. The inclusion complexation with cyclodextrin (CD) can eliminate this drawback and the free-standing nanofibrous film (NF) generated from these inclusion complexes (ICs) can be a promising alternative formula as an orally disintegrating drug delivery system. For this, naproxen/CD IC NFs were generated using the highly water soluble hydroxypropylated derivative of βCD (HPβCD) with two different molar ratios of 1/1 and 1/2 (drug/CD). The complexation energy calculated by the modeling study demonstrated a more favorable interaction between HPβCD and naproxen for the 1/2 molar ratio than 1/1. HPβCD/naproxen IC NFs were generated with loading concentrations of ∼7–11% and without using toxic chemicals. HPβCD/naproxen IC NFs indicated a faster and enhanced release profile in aqueous medium compared to pure naproxen owing to inclusion complexation. Moreover, rapid disintegration in less than a second was achieved in an artificial saliva environment.
