Formulation And Evaluation Of Self-Emulsifying Drug Delivery Systems Of Azithromycin To Enhance Its Penetration Through The Epithelial Tight Junctions

Azithromycin (AZM) is a macrolide antibiotic used for the treatment of a number of bacterial infections. It is known to have a low oral bioavailability (37 %) due to its relatively high molecular weight, incomplete solubility and/or poor intestinal permeability, which is potentially restricting its...
