Recently, many technological methods of enhancing the solubility and dissolution characteristics of poorly water soluble drugs have been reported in the literature. Сyclodextrins are able to form water-soluble non-covalent inclusion complexes with many poorly soluble lipophilic drugs. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the possibility of interaction of the antifungal drug Bifonazole (BFZ) through complexation with carboxymethylated-β-cyclodextrin (КМ-β-CD). Based on the data obtained, we can conclude that the presence of KM-β-CD improves solubilization of BFZ more than 50 times.
