Abstract: Most of the drugs that have been invented are of BCS Class II. Therefore, dissolution rate enhancement is the key aspect for absorption of these drugs. Liquisolid technology is very efficient in the dissolution rate enhancement of these drugs. Moreover, use of other polymers such as Eudragit and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose in the liquisolid approach can cause sustained release of drugs. This review focuses on the formulation approaches of liquisolid tablets or compacts along with its fundamental principles.
