ovel complexes of two different solid forms of Albendazol and beta-cyclodextrin were investigated in anattempt to obtain promising candidates for the preparation of alternative matrices used in pharmaceuti-cal oral formulations. The interaction between each form of Albendazol and beta-cyclodextrin was studied insolution and solid state, in order to investigate their effect on the solubility and dissolution rate of Alben-dazol solid forms. The solid supramolecular systems were characterized using a variety of techniques including natural-abundance 13C cross-polarization magic-angle-spinning nuclear magnetic resonance,powder X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy.The results obtained showed the highest increment of solubility and dissolution rate, in simulated gastricfluid, for the Albendazole II:beta-cyclodextrin systems. Thus, these new complexes constitute an interestingalternative for improving the oral bioavailability of Albendaz
