Effects
(1) The nanoparticles were highly stable in the plasma releasing only a minute amount of SAX (2.5 ng/mL) which was less than the Cmax of the pure SAX (51 ng/mL) . (2) An accumulation of 53 ng/mL SAX from the nanoparticles whereas the pure SAX showed no detectable amount of the drug after 24 h. (3) Nanoparticles had an (AUC0-t) of 3.42 times lower than the pure SAX, indicating the stability of the prepared formulation in the plasma.
