Dissolution Testing and Content Uniformity Analysis for Metformin Tablets Using Vildagliptin as an Internal Standard
Poor-quality medicines, brand or generic, do not meet acceptable standards. Further studies must explore the status of generic medicines in Qatar and the region, especially during the GCC crisis. The research goal is to assess whether the multi-sourced antidiabetic medication, Metformin Hydrochloride (MH) tablets marketed in Qatar and other selected worldwide locations fulfill the compendial quality control parameters and in vitro bioequivalence/interchangeability requirements. Could we safely replace branded Glucophage® with generic MH without compromising the patient’s interest? This laboratory experimental study assessed the quality control parameters and in vitro bioequivalence/interchangeability requirements of sixteen marketed products of MH tablets from 11 countries in addition to 33 MH products from Qatar’s market based on the US Pharmacopeia (USP 34) guideline recommendations.
