Drug containing biodegradable poly(+/-)lactide microparticles were prepared by using a spray-drying technique. Formulations containing model drugs in either a dissolved (progesterone) or dispersed state (theophylline) were spray-dried. The spray-drying method was less dependent on the solubility characteristics of the drug when compared with traditional microencapsulation techniques such as phase separation or solvent evaporation techniques. Differential scanning calorimetry and scanning electron microscopy were used to characterize the microparticles. The drug release profiles were characterized by a rapid release phase (burst effect) followed by a slow release phase, the extent of each phase being dependent on the drug loading.
