BIOENHANCER: AN AGENT FOR INCREASING BIOAVAILABILITY
Prerana Sahu* and Dr. Rajesh Kumar Nema
Abstract
Bioenhancer are an agent which are not medicinal individuals however
while they combine with an effective pharmaceutical drug start to the
increase of the pharmacologic response of the drug. When every drug
molecule are being introduced every year but many of these molecules
have problems like their solubility, stability, bioavailability and longlasting
side effects. Low bioavailability is one of the serious but
treatable problems in the case of the drug molecule. There are also
some other circumstances that are obliged for low bioavailability such
as low aqueous solubility or effluence by P-gp, etc. These review aims
is to discuss the idea of bioavailability to execute a better therapeutic
response in suitable dose using natural drugs and natural products like ginger, caraway, aloe,
quercetin, glycyrrhizin piperine, curcumin, etc. The use of natural products is for the amount
and existent of the drug at which the drug is absorbed improvement because these are harmfree,
non-toxic, inexpensive, easily procured, non-addictive, pharmacologically inert and nonallergenic
nature, etc. Bioenhancers are utilized for numerous classes of drug-like
neutraceuticals, antibiotics, antitubercular and anticancer for instant accouterments.
Bioenhancers are also used in several novel drug delivery compositions such as Liposomes,
transferosomes, ethosomes, nanoparticles, etc. This review gives the origin of Bioenhancers
from natural authorities such as plants and animals with their mechanism and importance in
formulation with its future prospective.
Keywords: Bioenhancers, Bioavailability, Piperine, Quercetin.
