Solubility enhancement of simvastatin by arginine: Thermodynamics, solute–solvent interactions, and spectral analysis

We examined the solubility of simvastatin in water in 0.01 mol⋅dm−3, 0.02 mol⋅dm−3, 0.04 mol⋅dm−3, 0.09 mol⋅dm−3, 0.18 mol⋅dm−3, 0.36 mol⋅dm−3, and 0.73 mol⋅dm−3 arginine (ARG) solutions. The investigated drug is termed the solute, whereas ARG the cosolute. Phase solubility studies illustrated a hig...
