Dear collegues
Does someone know if there are commercial statistical programmes
available for similarity demostration between dissolution profiles,
when the f2 proof is not suitable because of high variability of
dissolution means?
Thank you and kinds regards
Do you intend to widen the criteria for similarity demonstration if f2Back to the Top
criteria is not suitable? What if the bio is ok?
Regards
Kiran

Dear Carlos,
Such a program was employed in the article:
Ded\0xCCk, L. M. Durisov\0xB7: System-approach methods for modeling
and testing similarity of in vitro dissolutions of drug dosage
formulations.
Comput. Methods Programs Biomed. 2002, 69; 49-55.

The program is commercially available:

dear sir
what is the F2 value in dissolution profile and is their
any specific criteria for dissolution while conducting the
bioequivalence study

Dear Vishal,
I am not really sure I understand your question correctly. F2 is used
to compare dissolution profile of two formulations. If you have a
product with multiple strenths and you do the BE on highest or lowest
strength against a reference product, then you use F2 (or F1/ any other
statistical methods) to demonstrate that all other strengths of your
product have similar dissolution profile as that of BE lot and
therefore qualify for bio-waiver (i.e assuming all strengths are dose
proportional/look alike). F2 is also used to demonstrate similarity in
case of SUPAC.
Hope this helps,
