Refinement of Lower Acceptance Value of the Similarity Factor f2 inComparison of Dissolution Profiles

Abstract: Dissolution testing has become an essential tool in the pharmaceutical industry at various stages of development, manufacturing and marketing. For the comparison of dissolution profiles, similarity factor f 2 is gaining popularity due to its recommendation by various regulatory committees. Dissolution profiles are considered similar if the calculated f 2 value is between 50 and 100.In our opinion,this acceptance limit might not be correctly defined. This article presents the reasons for the same and a new equa… Show more

“…It was therefore decided to adopt a ± 10% deviation at all sampling times. [9] According to the limits for drug dissolution at 1, 2, 6, and 12 h is 21.64-26.45%, 27.86-34.05%, 52.71-64.43%, and 90-110%, respectively. The midpoint values, shown in Table 3, shall be considered as the most desirable dissolution pattern.…”

“…12 In place of 10 as the absolute percentage difference between R and T,we proposed the use of 10% of percentage of drug dissolved from reference product as allowable deviation in the dissolution results of a test product. To consider variability between samples with more specificity,the optional weight (w) was calculated by taking the ratio of the absolute difference of mean percentage drug dissolved between R and T to 10% of percentage of drug dissolved from the reference formulation at each timepoint.…”
