AMBULATORY BLOOD PRESSURE MONITORING: A NON-INVASIVE GOLD STANDARD FOR HYPERTENSIVE THERAPY

Blood pressure (BP) is one of the major prognostic indicators in cardiovascular patients and in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Accurate measurement of BP is important to classify an individual to confirm BP related risk and to continue treatment. The limitations of conventional technique can be surpassed by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM). ABPM strengthens its superiority ...

LIQUISOLID TECHNIQUE: A NOVEL APPROACH FOR SOLUBILITY ENHANCEMENT

Liquisolid Technique is one of the novel approach for drug delivery system for oral route. Bioavailability of any drug is mainly dependent upon its dissolution rate and dissolution rate is dependent upon solubility of that drug. So, if any drug has less solubility then of course its bioavailability will be less. Hence there is need of enhancement of solubility of poorly soluble drugs for enhancing...
