OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the similarity of dissolution curves in vitro of Azelnidipine tablet between the self-prepared and original preparations, and provide reference for its quality control and clinical application. METHODS: Paddle method was used at rate of 50 r/min, and dissolution test was conducted with media of 500 ml pH1.2 Hydrochloric acid sodium chloride solution, pH4.0 Acetate buffer solution, pH6.8 Phosphate buffer solution, fiber-optic dissolution tester was used to detect the cumulative dissolution the main ingredients in Azelnidipine tablet between the self-prepared and original preparations at different time points, and compared with the results of UV-visible spectrophotometry, then dissolution curve was plotted, f2 was used to evaluate the similarity of their similarity. RESULTS: There was no obvious difference in the results between fiber optic drug dissolution real-time detector and UV-visible spectrophotometry. f2 Similarity factors were more than 50 and the dissolution curves of the self-prepared and original preparations were similar in the different dissolution media, while the dissolution was relatively low in the last 3 media. CONCLUSIONS: Fiber-optic dissolution tester can accurately and conveniently provide the real-time dissolution and reflect its dynamic dissolution process, which provides an effective way to investigate the inner quality of drug completely. However, the formulation and technology of the self-prepared preparation of Azelnidipine tablet need to be further studied.
