Most compounds face the solubility problems. Hence, with the advancement of chemical science, the need of development of pharmaceutical technologies is also increasing. Pharmaceutical approaches to correct the bioavailability are definitely being cost-effective in comparison with chemical approaches which are also time-consuming. Hence various methods of solubility enhancement are being developed. To overcome the problem of the low solubility of drug, the technique of ‘liquisolid compacts’ is a new and promising approach towards dissolution enhancement. Liquisolid compacts possess acceptable flowability and compressibility properties. The concept of powdered solutions enables one to convert a liquid drug or poorly water-soluble solid drug dissolved in a suitable non-volatile solvent into a dry, non-adherent, free flowing and readily compressible powder by its simple admixture with selected carrier and coating materials and compressed it. Characterization of liquisolid compacts by various methods such as UV/HPLC, Infrared Spectroscopy, Powder X-Ray Diffraction Analysis, Differential Scanning calorimetry, In vitro Dissolution studies, etc.
