Summary
Bioavailability and pharmacokinetic studies with piroxicam-β-cyclodextrin (CHF 1194) showed that absorption of piroxicam administered as a complex is faster than that of piroxicam alone for the oral and rectal routes of administration in rabbits and dogs. This inclusion complex, which has a molar ratio of 1:2.5, produced the optimal absorption of all the combinations tested. CHF 1194 has excellent bioavailability by the 2 routes tested and the kinetics are characterised by a rapid onset of peak plasma concentrations that are greater than those obtained with piroxicam alone.
