Abstract

The aim of the work. Comparative studies of the requirements of leading pharmacopeias for the definition, characteristics of semisolid dosage forms (SDF), and the parameters by which their quality are controlled.

Materials and Methods. Pharmacopeia articles and quality indicators for SDF are given in the State Pharmacopoeia of Ukraine (SPU) and in some foreign pharmacopoeias. Methods of information search, analysis of literature sources, comparison and generalization were used in the research.

Results and Discussion. A comparative analysis of pharmacopeias of leading countries and SPU on the characteristics, classification and quality indicators of SDF. In several pharmacopoeias (SPU, Ph. Eur., BP, SPRB) SDF is considered in general pharmacopoeia articles "Semisolid drugs for dermal use", in Pharmacopoeias of the USA, Japan and Russia (USP, JP, SPRF) SDF described in the general article on dosage forms (DF). Based on the analysis of the relevant monographs, approaches to the classification of SDF (by the type of DF, type of dispersed systems, and an affinity for water) are considered. The approaches of SPU and foreign pharmacopoeias to the SDF manufactured in pharmacies have been studied. The requirements of pharmacopoeias regarding the quality indicators, according to which SDFs should be monitored, depending on the method of their application, are analyzed. The main quality indicators that are determined for different SDFs are description, identification (API, antimicrobial preservatives, other excipients if necessary), homogeneity of dosage units (except for drugs of plant origin), pH or acid and peroxide value, consistency, viscosity, container tightness, microbiological purity or sterility, quantification.

Conclusions. The obtained results of the analysis show some differences of the studied pharmacopoeias in relation to SDF and indicators of their quality, which indicates the expediency of harmonization of pharmacopoeia requirements for SDF in order to unify the approaches to confirming their quality.
