Abstract
Pharmaceutical properties of two brands of commercial dipyridamole sugar-coated tablets were compared. Product A, a home-made tablet preparation sugar-coated in a special procedure (i. e. single-liquid sugar coating), is characterized by thinner coating than that of product B, an imported tablet sugar-coated in conventional procedure. It was found out in the experiment that product A is slightly less in weight variation of tablet, and harder and slightly more stable than product B. Further, Product A showed disintegration time1/4 as short as product B and dissolution rate was several times faster.
