    Abstract:
    Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used as a screening technique for assessing the compatibility of ibuproxam with some currently employed pharmaceutical excipients. The influence of processing effects (simple blending, cogrinding or kneading) on drug stability was also evaluated. On the basis of DSC results, ibuproxam was found to be compatible with corn starch, avicel and sodium carboxymethylcellulose. Some drug-excipient interaction was observed with polyethyleneglycol 4000, palmitic acid, stearic acid, Ca and Mg stearate. Actual solid-phase interactions of the drug with polyvinylpolypyrrolidone and polyvinylpirrolidone K30 were induced by mechanical treatments. Hot-stage microscopy (HSM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were of help in interpreting the DSC results and excluding in all cases relevant pharmaceutical incompatibilities.
