ydrochlorthiazide (HCT) is one of the most commonly prescribed antihypertensive drugs. In an attempt to gain an insight into the physicochemical and molecular aspects controlling the complex architecture of native ß-cyclodextrin (ßCD) with HCT, we performed multiple-temperature-pH isothermal titration calorimetric measurements of the HCT:ßCD system, together with proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H NMR), phase solubility analysis and molecular modeling methods. The AL-type diagrams, obtained at different pH values and temperatures, suggested the formation of soluble 1:1 inclusion complexes of ßCD with HCT. The corresponding stability constants (K1:1) were determined by phase solubility studies and compared with those obtained by ITC, with good agreement between these two techniques being found. The three-dimensional array of the complex was studied by 1H NMR and molecular modeling methods. Both techniques confirmed the formation of the inclusion complex, with good agre
