Abstract

The studies prior to the formulation are broadly known as preformulation studies and these studies should focus on those physicochemical properties of compounds that could affect drug performance and development of an efficacious and specific dosage form. The preformulation studies were carried out of Ambroxol HCl in terms of tests for identification (physical appearance, melting point and IR spectra), solubility profile and quantitative estimation of drug by considering formulation of medicated chewing gum (MCG).
