A diagram that shows the structure of a drug crystallized in aqueous fluid. The diagram is circular in shape and has a blue background. In the center of the diagram there is a purple flower-like structure that appears to be made up of small circular cells. The cells are arranged in a radial pattern with the outermost cell being the largest and the innermost being the smallest.
On the left side of the image there are two arrows pointing towards the center one labeled "Protective layer of polyethylene glycol" and the other labeled "Lipid-soluble drug in bilayer". On the right side there appears to have a red-colored substance possibly a drug which is likely a bilayer.
The image also has text that explains that the drug crystallizes in aqueous fluid which helps to protect the surface of the glycol from damage caused by the drug.
