Abstract

The inclusion complexes of warfarin with β-cyclodextrin, 2-hydroxypropyl-β-CD and methyl-β-CD have been investigated in aqueous solution. The apparent binding constants of warfarin are found to be 542±19, 442±18 and 112±6M-1 respectively, calculated from the increments in fluorescence emission of the drug. The influence of the β-CDs on the absorption rate of the drug is investigated with in situ experiments in a chronically isolated internal loop, in the small intestine of the rat. The first-order disappearance (absorption) rate constant decreases to 3.6×10-4 min-1 in β-CD, to 5.0×10-4 min-1 in 2-hydroxypropyl-β-CD and to 1.4×10-3 min-1 in methyl-β-CD compared to 3.2×10-3 min-1 in isotonic phosphate buffer (pH=7.4) solution, all of them showing a good agreement with the percentage of free warfarin in their complexed solutions: 16%, 18% and 47% calculated, respectively.
