The term that includes both the mass of the dosage form and the content of the active substance in the dosage form.
(a)
It is defined as the degree of uniformity in the amount of the drug substance among dosage unit.
(a)
It confirms uniformity of the dosage unit and therefore support product safety, identity and quality. It is allowed for hard capsules, uncoated tablets, and film-coated tablets containing 25 mg or more of the drug substance compromising 25% or more of the weight of the dosage unit.
(a)
It is based on the assay of the individual content of drug substance in several dosage units to determine whether the individual content is within the limits set.
(a)
It ensures that the strength of a therapeutic product remains within specified acceptance limits. It is applicable to dosage units with <25 or <25% of drug substance.
(a)
It is defined as that state in which any residue of the unit remain on the screen of the test apparatus or adhering to the lower surface of the disk, if used, is a soft mass having no palpably firm core.
(a)
It determines whether the tablet, capsule, or granules disintegrate within the prescribed time when placed in liquid medium.
(a)
Uncoated tablets are marked as PASSED in the disintegration test if (a) tablets are completely disintegrated.
If 1-2 uncoated tablets failed, repeat the test on additional (a) tablets.
Enteric coated tablets are marked as PASSED in the disintegration test if after (a) hours, no tablets disintegrated in acid stage.
