Bioavailability pharmaceutical factors affecting

Pharmaceutical factors. The amount of drug that is released from a dose form (and so becomes available for absorption) is referred to as its bioavailability. This is highly dependent on its pharmaceutical formulation. With tablets, for example, particle size (surface area exposed to solution), diluting substances, tablet size and pressure used in the tabletting machine can affect disintegration and dissolution and so the bioavailability of the drug. 

Aqueous solubility is one of the most important physicochemical properties. It is believed that a drug has to be in solution to be absorbed.35 From the pharmaceutical development point of view, the solid state form is another important factor that affects solubility, the dissolution rate, and eventually developability. The solid state form is the determinant of, to some extent, physicochemical stability, intellectual property, and formulation scalability this factor should be carefully examined and optimized. Change in crystallinerity from different chemical processes, in some cases, results in a big difference in bioavailability when the drug is delivered by a solid dosage formulation.
