OBJECTIVE: To establish a method for the dissolution determination of Dronedarone hydrochloride tablet, and evaluate the quality consistency of its generic and original preparations. METHODS: UV spectrometry was performed on the column of 288 nm, dissolution media of Phosphate buffer solution (pH4.5),0.1 mol/L Hydrochloric acid solution [adding into 0.5% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)], Phosphate buffer solution [pH6.8, adding into 0.5%SDS] and water, volume of dissolution medium was 1 000 ml, rotation speed was 75 r/min, the dissolution of generic and original preparations of Dronedarone hydrochloride tablet was detected, and the similarity of dissolution curve was evaluated by calculating the similarity factor (f2). RESULTS: The linear range of dronedarone hydrochloride was 2.147-25.764 μg/ml; RSDs of precision, stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 2.0%; recoveries 4 dissolution media were 99.53%-101.05%(RSD=0.48%,n=9), 98.95%-100.05% (RSD=0.39%,n=9), 99.54%-100.20% (RSD=0.24%,n=9) and 98.54%-100.06%(RSD=0.44%,n=9). In the 4 dissolution media, f2 of the dissolution curve of 3 batches of generic and original preparations of Dronedarone hydrochloride tablet was 56, 60, 63, 68, 68, 52, 59, 67, 65, 68, 76, 62, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The method is suitable for the dissolution determination of Dronedarone hydrochloride tablet; meanwhile, the in vitro dissolution curves of generic and original preparations of Dronedarone hydrochloride tablet show similarity, so the quality consistency is good.
