Telmisartan suffers from low oral bioavailability due to its poor water solubility. The research work presents a formulation of solid dispersed (SD) telmisartan formulation as a ternary mixture of a drug, a polymeric carrier (poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) K30), and an alkalizer (Na2CO3). The preparat...
