Abstract:

It is estimated that at least 10% of orally administered drugs can form inclusion complexes with CDs and nearly half of them can be improved in the aspects of their physical and chemical properties. CDs have been used in drugs either for complexes or as auxiliary additives such as solubilizers, diluents or tablet ingredients to improve the solubility, stability and bioavailability of drugs, deodorize and detoxicate drugs,and control release of drugs.
