Organic solvents are amongst the most powerful solubilization agents for a large number of water-insoluble drugs. A number of equations has been reported for mathematical representation of solute solubility in mixed solvents. The question is then posed-is there a mathematical difference between these models? To address this point, it has been demonstrated that all cosolvency models could be made equivalent by using algebraic manipulations. In order to familiarize the readers with the available cosolvency models, they are briefly reviewed. The models can be divided into two mathematical categories, i.e. linear and non-linear models. The linear models include: the log-linear, extended Hildebrand solubility approach, excess free energy equations, combined nearly ideal binary solvent/Redlich-Kister equation and Margule equations which can be converted to a general single model which expresses the logarithm of mole fraction solubility of a solute as a power series of volume fraction of the cosolvent. The non-linear models include the mixture response surface methods, two step solvation model and modified Wilson model which can be converted to a non-linear general form. Also, it has been shown that both the general single model and a non-linear general model are mathematically identical. To show the applicability of the models on real experimental data, 35 data sets have been collected from the literature. Both linear and nonlinear models produced comparable accuracies when an equal number of constant terms was employed in numerical analyses.
