Sample	DP 30 min	DP 2 h	DE 30 min	DE 4 h	RDR 5 min
Pure MBZ	21.82±4.32	41.95±1.69	10.31±1.53	38.38±1.77	1
Recrystallized MBZ	17.42±4.55	42.02±3.32	7.94±1.94	37.22±3.38	0.7
RDM-1:1	25.20±2.27	52.80±3.02	12.99±1.17	47.60±2.65	1.4
RDM-1:2.5	54.84±2.55	78.86±2.69	35.77±1.18	71.90±1.77	4.0
RDM-1:5	50.47±1.50	71.88±1.32	32.79±1.27	64.88±1.16	4.0

Notes: DP at 30 min and 2 h; DE at 30 min and 4 h, and RDR at 5 min of MBZ raw material; recrystallized MBZ; RDM-1:1; RDM-1:2.5, and RDM-1:5.

Abbreviations: DE, dissolution efficiency; RDR, relative dissolution rate; h, hours; min, minutes; MBZ, mebendazole; RDM, redispersible microparticles.
