Encapsulation of a drug into electrospun fibers spun from water soluble polymers to control solubility and release

Electrospun fibers prepared from water-soluble polymers (PVP, PVA, and HPMC) were loaded with pregabalin, a BCS I drug, to address its fast release and adverse effects. The drug dissolved partially (1.8–2.8 wt%) in the polymers, with excess pregabalin in crystalline form within the fibers. The solub...
