Saindon et al. used solid-state NMR to show that different brands of prednisolone tablets contained different polymorphs (81). For the listed drugs, the NMR analysis could discern the active component except for the low-dose enala-pril maleate tablets. Excipients obscure some drug resonances which appear at the same chemical shift value, but overall, have little effect on resonances at... 

Figure 172. An apparent log-linear relationship between the change in the dissolution rate of prednisolone tablets and storage time at 4°C. Water content 5.41%. The ratio of the dissolution rate after storage (k) to that before storage (h) is plotted versus storage time. (Reproduced from Ref. 704 with permission.)...

Prednisone and prednisolone tablets are on the list of drugs with high risk potential for therapeutic inequivalence because of differences in bioavailability. Levy et al reported a case of a patient with arthritis who was successfully treated with a proprietary brand of prednisolone 5 mg tablets. Subsequently when prednisone 5 mg tablets...
