An evaluation of the interactions of phenothiazine tranquilizer drugs (promazine hydrochloride; PMZ and promethazine hydrochloride; PMT) with bile salts viz., sodium cholate (NaC) and sodium deoxycholate (NaDC) in aqueous medium, investigated through different physicochemical measurements is presented in this work. The mixed micellization behavior and surface properties of the phenothiazine-bile salt systems have been analyzed by conductivity and surface tension measurements. Application of different theoretical approaches to all the phenothiazine-bile salt mixtures shows a non-ideal behavior. Further, the spectroscopic techniques such as UV-visible and steady state fluorescence have been employed to study the binding of phenothiazines with bile salts. The stoichiometric ratios, binding constants (K), and free energy change (¦¤G) for the phenothiazine-bile salt complexes were estimated from the Benesi-Hildebrand (B-H) double reciprocal plots obtained by using the changes in spectral intensities of phenothiazines on addition of bile salts. The results are discussed in the light of use of bile salts as promising drug delivery agents for phenothiazines and hence improve their bioavailabilty.
