Question

Examples of BCS class III drugs are:

• A. Acyclovir, Atenolol, Captopril
• B. Taxol, Ellagic acid, Aspirin
• C. Aspirin, Paracetamol, Amoxycillin
• D. Chloroquine, Diltiazem, Metoprolol

Hint:

BCS Class III drugs have good solubility but low permeability, making them ideal candidates for formulations that can enhance their absorption and bioavailability.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

BCS Class III drugs are characterized by high solubility and low permeability. Drugs like Acyclovir, Atenolol, and Captopril fall under this class due to their high solubility but relatively low permeability across the gastrointestinal tract. These drugs often benefit from formulations that enhance their absorption.
