Abstract
The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare the oral bioavailability of nanonized progesterone (nano-PG) and micronized progesterone
(micro-PG) sustained release tablet formulation in healthy and pregnant rabbits. High pressure compressed gas technology reduces the particle size
from 1.72 ± 2.5 µm (micro-PG) to 800 ± 35 nm (nano-PG). DSC and XRD showed that both micro-PG and nano-PG were crystalline and exist as
form I. Higher melting enthalpy of nano-PG indicated improved drug stability whereas XRD showed slight reduction in degree of crystallinity
following nanonization. Nano-PG demonstrated 2-fold higher solubility in SDS aqueous solution and signicantly higher permeability (p < 0.05)
across porcine intestine compared to micro-PG. The pharmacokinetics of nano-PG and micro-PG was conducted in healthy and pregnant rabbits.
The Cmax of nano-PG was higher in healthy and pregnant rabbits however the difference was signicant in healthy rabbits only. The nano-PG
demonstrated 30% and 18% higher bioavailability compared to micro-PG in healthy and pregnant rabbits, respectively. In conclusion,
nanonization improves solubility, dissolution and bioavailability of PG in rabbits without affecting solid state characters
