The combination of a highly soluble salt form of a drug with a polymeric precipitation inhibitor has the potential to prolong drug supersaturation even following salt disproportionation. In this study, dissolution profiles of ibuprofen sodium in the presence of various cellulosic polymers, including hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), methylcellulose (MC), and hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC), were examined in order to assess degree and duration of supersaturation. In addition, the roles that the polymers played in altering drug solubility, media viscosity, physical form, and particle morphology were also assessed. A deep dive into the mechanisms of supersaturation revealed that intermolecular hydrogen bonding between ibuprofen and HPMC was driving supersaturation through nucleation inhibition and crystal growth modification. Polymer viscosity was proposed as the primary factor prolonging supersaturation of ibuprofen in the presence of MC, while mechanisms other than hydrogen bonding were likely to be attributed to supersaturation with the most hydrophobic polymer evaluated, HPC. Overall, the study suggested that induction of intermolecular interactions between ibuprofen and HPMC were more effective at inhibiting nucleation and maintaining prolonged supersaturation than physical modulation of solution properties, such as viscosity.

Heavy lanthanide complexes (Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu) and yttrium (III) complexes with ibuprofen ligands (Hibu) were synthesized and characterized by simultaneous thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), attenuated total reflection mid-infrared spectroscopy (ATR-MIR), complexometric titration, X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) in order to determine stoichiometry, thermal stability and the ligand coordination modes of the compounds. The volatiles released were also analyzed by online coupled thermogravimetry-infrared spectroscopy evolved gas analysis (TG-EGA-MIR), to identify the main product resulting from the heating of terbium complex. In addition, ibuprofen and the synthesized compounds were tested to assess cytotoxic/proliferative and anti-inflammatory activity. The results of the cytotoxicity assays showed that compounds [Yb(ibu)3], [Lu(ibu)3] and [Y(ibu)3] decreased the cytotoxic activity of ibuprofen. Furthermore, [Yb(ibu)3] and [Lu(ibu)3] exhibited a significant anti-inflammatory profile, superior to that of ibuprofen. Under the stimulatory effect of lipopolysaccharide, these compounds displayed anti-inflammatory activity characterized by low TNF-α and H2O2 production and high IL-10 production, emerging as interesting alternatives for further biological applications.
