Abstract
Experimental Solubilities of budesonide, hydrocortisone, and prednisolone in ethanol + water mixtures at 298.2 K are reported. The Solubility of drugs was increased with the addition of ethanol and reached file maximum values of the Volume fractions of 90 %, 80 %, and 80 % of ethanol. The Jouyban-Acree model was used to fit the experimental data, and the Solubilities were reproduced using previously trained versions of the Jouyban-Acree model and the Solubility data in monosolvents in which the overall mean relative deviations (OMRDs) of the models were 5.1 %, 6.4 %, 37.7 %, and 35.9 %, respectively, for the fitted model, the trained version for ethanol + water mixtures, and generally trained versions for Various organic solvents + water mixtures. Solubilities were also predicted by a previously established log-linear model of Yalkowsky with the OMRD of 53.8 %.
