Evaluation by PEC: The firm has submitted that the Roximax intrauterine foam for the registration of which
we are applying, is an aerosol preparation with the addition of surfactants in its formulation. Therefore, we will
use the same AEROSOL SECTION for the manufacturing of intrauterine foam.
A foam aerosol is an emulsion containing one or more active Pharmaceutical Ingredients, surfactants, aqueous
and non-aqueous liquids and the propellants. If the propellant is in the internal (discontinuous) phase (i.e. of the
oil-in-water type), stable foam is discharged and if the propellant is in the external (continuous) phase (i.e. of
water-in-oil type), a spray or quick-breaking foam is discharged.
Foaming type nozzles are used in this case that tend to produce fewer, but larger, drops than conventional type
pressure nozzles.

be absent and these are called as Microbial Limit Tests.
We followed the same practice and set restricted
microbiological limits as per SAMI’s Specs, that is
TAMC: NMT 100 cfu/g, TYMC: NMT 10 cfu/g as well
as absence of pathogenic organisms including E. Coli,
Salmonella, S. Aureus in our raw material.
5. The submitted acceptance criteria for release We develop the product specifications according to the
and shelf life specifications are same. Scientific general monograph of USP and from the chemistry
justification is required for adopting such reviews of USFDA, EMA. In addition, ICH Q6A states
acceptance criteria. that the acceptance criteria are the same from release
throughout shelf life of product. Therefore, we have also
set the same specification limits for release and shelf life.

Appearance of API, its solubility, pKa, partition
coefficient, stereoisomerism and polymorphic form etc.
were mentioned in detail by the innovator, therefore, all
these required details are gathered from literature data.
As the reference finished product is presented as
immediate-release film-coated tablets for oral
administration containing 20mg or 40mg of Baloxavir
Marboxil as the active substance, therefore, we have
designed our product same as reference product to ensure
pharmaceutical equivalency.
Product dissolution parameters and other related
specification are already disclosed by the manufacturer
of the reference product. Due to poor solubility of API,
to ensure reproducible dissolution results, we have
selected micronized grade of API for development of our
product as suggested by the reference brand in FDA
chemistry review.
Due to unavailability of innovator samples, the
dissolution profile in different pH mediums i.e., pH 1.2,
4.5 and 6.8 buffers as recommended in WHO for CDP is
checked and the release profile found similar to that of
innovator product “Xofluza Tablet” in FDA chemistry
review publically available.
Information related to product packaging, storage and
labeling were also gathered from the above mentioned
product assessment reports i.e. FDA chemistry review as

Following documents are submitted,
-Chromatograms for the testing of AVYCAZ 2004E0

6. Justification / clarification is required regarding Justification is as follows,
target filled weight of ceftazidime Avibactam as Label Claim:
3100mg in batch formula. Ceftazidime: 2g (Ceftazidime pentahydrate /sodium
carbonate)
Avibactam: 0.5g (Avibactam sodium)
Potency of Ceftazidime in raw material = 64.93%
Calculation of proposed weight on the basis of
ceftazidime potency:
Fill weight = label claim x 100 / Potency (%)
Fill weight = 2000 x 100 /64.93
Fill weight = 3080mg/ vial.
Potency of Avibactam in raw material = 16.13%
Calculation of proposed weight on the basis of
ceftazidime potency:
Fill weight = label claim x 100 / Potency (%)
Fill weight = 500 x 100 /16.13
Fill weight = 3099.8mg ≈ 3100mg/ vial
Fill weight of AVIZID injection has been selected
3100mg/vial to calculate batch size which is
maximum of both and have both API > 100%
(Avibactam 100.00%, Ceftazidime 100.6%).
-COA is also enclosed for potency evidence.
7. -Scientific justification /rational for not performing -Sodium carbonate is an excipient and its role is to
the test of sodium carbonate content. stabilize ceftazidime. So, its content is not tested as
API. Furthermore, there is no specific limit for its
assay claimed by innovator. Hence, following
innovator, (AVYCAZ) approximate content of
sodium carbonate per vial may be mentioned on leaflet
which are Approx. 236.1mg.
For the determination of sodium carbonate content, an
agreement has been made with TTI labs (Third party
testing service) due to the unavailability of specific
equipment required for this test.
Stability batches have been tested by Atomic
absorption for the evaluation of sodium carbonate
contents per vial. The analysis of sodium carbonate
performed by Atomic absorption Spectrometer (AAS)
are as:

002I 236.93
003I 234.90
This is only an informative test and no acceptance
limits are applicable.
8. Justify the weights taken for ceftazidime and In analytical method validation, weights on as is bases

Sr.# Observations communicated Response by the firm


1. Justification/clarification is required As per innovator, the active substance of Flector 1% gel
regarding fill weight of Diclofenac epolamine is Diclofenac sodium as Diclofenac epolamine salt,
as 646.5mg in applied composition. corresponding to 1g per 100g Diclofenac sodium as drug
substance.
Molecular weight of Diclofenac epolamine = 411.3
Molecular weight of Diclofenac Sodium = 318.1
This means
318.1grams of Diclofenac Sodium = 411.3g Diclofenac
Epolamine
So,
01gram Diclofenac Sodium= (411.3/318.1) = 1.293grams
For 1% Gel
Each 100grams of the Gel will contain 1.293grams
Diclofenac Epolamine corresponding to 1g Diclofenac
sodium.
As each tube contains 50grams gel, so
each tube will contain= 1.293/2=0.64649grams or
646.5mg

# F0079AA) and reference product (batch # BILS000 &
KEZTQ00).
2. Stability study data of 3 batches of Fonkozomib is a lyophilized product, therefore the cake of
Bortezomib 3.5mg Injection 10ml vial in product will have less contact to rubber compared to liquid
horizontal and inverted position. injection product (possibility of incompatibility of product
with rubber is low). Furthermore, referring to Guidance for
industry ANDA’s: Stability testing of Drug substances and
product: that “For primary batches of liquids, solution, semi-
solids and suspensions, the product should be placed into an
inverted (or horizsontal) position and upright (or vertical)
position. For routine stability studies, the applicant should
pick the worst case orientation for the study.” There is no
statement that lyophilized product should be placed into an
inverted position in stability study, therefore we decided that
stability in inverted condition is not necessary.

97/103mg, Felixia Tablets 49/51mg and Felixia Tablets 24/26mg of M/s Tabros Pharma (Pvt.) Ltd., Karachi due to
following reasons:
(i) Re-processing of tablets already used in tests of “Friability” & “Hardness” for compensating the batch
yield, since firm could not submit any rationale for this practice to compensate the yield.
(ii) Manual feeding of the powder in dies cavity of tablet compression machine, since this practice does not
simulate the manufacture procedure applied for commercial production.
(iii) Submitted record of tablets declare that firm does not have sufficient number of tablets to conduct real
time stability studies till claimed shelf life.
The firm didn’t agree with the decision of the Registration Board and decided to appeal against the above said decision
in the Appellate Board as provided under section 09 of the Drugs Act, 1976.
The Appellate Board in its 158th sitting held on 21st October, 2021 decided to dismiss the instant appeals (16/2020,
17/2020 and 18/2020) being without merit and directed the Pharmaceutical Evaluation and Registration (PE&R)
Division to evaluate the CTD applications submitted by the appellant for registration of Flixia Tablets 24mg/26mg,
49mg/51mg and 97mg/103mg (Sacubitril + Valsartan) on priority basis and place the same before the Registration
Board for consideration on merit.
As per directions of the Appellate Board, the above said applications are submitted for consideration of the
Registration Board.

performed product cannot be performed due to its unavailability
in Pakistan. Although, we have considered and
ensured the following parameters which gives the
confidence that in-vitro parameter of our product is
comparable with the innovator;
1) Formulation of our product is qualitatively similar
to that of innovator.
2) Dissolution method adopted as per FDA review of
innovator product and also set the tighter acceptance
criteria of NLT 80% (Q) in 20 minutes.
Previous Decision: Deferred for Performance of Pharmaceutical Equivalence and CDP by Drug product manufacturer.
(M-313)
Firm Response:
In this regard we have to humbly state as under:
• As per DRAP advice, we obtained a NOC from DRAP Karachi for procuring Sivextro (Tedizolid Phosphate)
200mg Tablet for conducting Comparative studies.
• We contacted several online Pharmacies as per list attached with full evidence but unfortunately none responded
favourable.
• Having failed to obtain the Originator’s sample we developed the product as per Innovator formulation and
specifications from the FDA chemistry review and other authorities published data of Innovator.
In view of the above, it is humbly requested that the condition of CDP against Innovator’s product may kindly be waived
off and consider our application for a favourable decision in the next upcoming meeting of the Registration board.
Decision: Registration Board decided to defer the case for submission of Pharmaceutical Equivalence and CDP
studies against Innovator /reference product.

Previous Decision (M-312): Deferred for clarification whether applied product contains same Active Pharmaceuticals
Ingredient as that of Reference product or otherwise.
Firm submitted reply:
“Drug product Pemetrexed for injection 100mg/Vial and the RLD (Almita, 100mg/vial) owned by Eli Lilly and
company is supplied as single-use vial as sterile, lyophilized powder and administered as parenteral solutions after
reconstitution, contain the same active ingredient and the same formulation”
Evaluation: FDA product contain Pemetrexed disodium heptahydrate while applied formulation contains Pemetrexed
disodium hemipentahydrate.
Evaluation by PEC : FDA product Almita contains Pemetrexed disodium Heptahydrate however firm applied
Pemetrexed disodium hemipentahydrate. EMA approved product Pemetrexed Krka contains same active ingredient
that is Pemetrexed disodium hemipentahydrate.
Previous Decision: Since the product approved by EMA contains same hydrate form of drug substance as that in the
applied product. Therefore, the Board decided to defer the case for submission of Pharmaceutical Equivalence against
the product containing same hydrate form of drug substance.(M-313)
Firm Reply: Attached herewith a Declaration with reference to our product PEMOSH 100mg (Pemetrexed) for the
drug substance used in RLD (Alimta 100mg/vial) owned by Eli Lilly and in our proposed product PEMOSH
100mg/vial
In which it is concluded that the hydrate crystalline form will not affect the quality of final product , active ingredient
and formulation in proposed generic drug product Pemetrexed for injection is consistent with that in RLD Almita
(Pemetrexed for injection) . The composition of the proposed drug product is qualitatively/quantitatively same to the
reference product.
Decleration
“when Pemetrexed disodium hemipentahydrate and Pemetrexed disodium heptahydrate dissolve in water, the unit
cells under crystalline state will completely dissolve in the water. The unit cells will be destroyed and pemetrexed
disodium will be electrolyzed to pemetrexed acid radical and sodium in water , crystal water previously in unite celss
will integrate together with the water molecule in water solution to perform as free water. Therefore water molecule
in different crystalline form of pemetrexed disodium will present in water solution. That’s to say Pemetrexed
Disodium hemipentahydarate and Pemetrexed disodium heptahydrate will both perform as pemetrexed acid radical,
sodium and free water when they dissolve in water solution, and exert their therapeutic effect in the form of
pemetrexed.”

The pharmaceutical Equivalence of PEMoSH 100mg (Pemetrexed disodium hemipentahydrate) is available


against Reference listed Drug (RLD) Almita 100mg (Pemetrexed disodium heptahydrate) which is USFDA approved
product by Lilly USA, LLC, so when it is equivalent to USFDA approved Almita (heptahydrate) then there is no need
to arrange Pharmaceutical Equivalence with same hydrate i.e hemipentahydrate such as Krka (EMA approved).
Decision: Registration Board noted the fact that the EMA public assessment report of drug product
“Pemetrexed Krka” having drug substance “pemetrexed disodium hemipentahydrate”, declares that it has the
same active substance in comparable amounts to the centrally approved reference medicinal product Alimta
having drug substance “pemetrexed disodium heptahydrate”, hence Board decided to approve the applied
product with USP specifications as per Policy for inspection of Manufacturer abroad and verification of local
storage facility.

follows:
S. No. Deficiencies / Short-comings Justification

1. COA of API is of supplier instead of This is to clarify that our supplier Beijing THTD
manufacturer. Clarify. Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd is also a Pharmaceutical
manufacturer and involved in R & D of new drugs together
2. API accelerated & real time stability studies with production and selling of raw materials. For reference
are of supplier instead of manufacturer. please see
Clarify. (http://en.thtdpharm.com/A/?C-1-44.Html).
3. Form 6, form 7 and form 3 for import of API • Initially we selected Beijing THTD Pharma for
is by supplier instead of manufacturer. Clarify. Vonoprazan Fumarate and received all documents
including COA, method of analysis, stability studies
reports with the name of Beijing THTD
Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. with assurance of the
availability of DMF & GMP. Therefore we
purchased API from Beijing THTD Pharmaceutical
Co.

• Later on DMF & GMP was provided by Beijing


THTD Pharma with the name of Hefei Lifeon
Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

• We inquired about change of manufacturer.


Beijing THTD provided us undertaking in which it is
mentioned that:
“Hefei Lifeon Pharmaceutical Co., limited is the
manufacturer for commercial scale manufacturing of
Vonoprazan Fumarate”.
4. You have applied paddle speed = 100RPM in The product Vonoprazan Fumarate tablet is not a compendial

speed of paddle with reference to USP general pharmacopoeia as well as in any reference literature so there
chapter <1092> (the dissolution procedure; was no limitation of any specific fixed rpm so we used 100
Development and validation) rpm during development and stability studies to achieve good
dissolution i.e. > 85% at later time point.
As product is fast dissolving in all three pH mediums (pH
1.2, 4.5 and 6.8 see CDP results) so the only reason of 100
rpm was just to increase method robustness and to get
uniform and precise results. Moreover product related
changes e.g. change of formulation or changes of
manufacturing procedure are not expected during
development and stability studies.
• USP general chapter <1092> also allows 100 rpm for
Paddle apparatus with sufficient justification.
• USP also recommends 100 RPM with Apparatus 2
in some of monographs of tablets.
• Further we would like to inform you that now we
have performed dissolution profile study of our
product at 75 rpm in three pH medium (pH1.2, 4.5
and 6.8) and test results in all three mediums meeting
acceptance criteria. (Documents are enclosed as
Annexure I).
• Moreover we would like to inform that 75 rpm can
be used for routine quality control testing for release
of commercial scale batches where product related
changes are expected during manufacturing.
5. Calculations of assay are not as per analytical • As per analytical method the solution is prepared in
method. Clarify only one dilution whereas practically we prepared same
concentration of solution in two steps. Therefore the
final concentration of standard solution is same in
analytical method as well as in calculations.
This practice is in line with USP pharmacopeia, as in
USP monographs usually only final concentration of
standard solution is provided.
Furthermore we are enclosing the revised method which
shows the same method as applied during analysis and
calculations. (See Annexure II)

Previous Decision: Deferred for further deliberations.(M-297)


Reply by firm: This is in reference to our application of Melinta Tablets 10 and 20 mg (Vonoprazan Fumarate tablets)
deferred in 297th meeting of registration board for further deliberation.

Our case was deferred as API supplier cancelled contract manufacturing agreement with manufacturer who supplied
API for stability studies of our product and contracted a different API manufacturer for future supplies.

M/S Beijing THTD Pharmaceutical Technology Co. Ltd. is our supplier. Previously they had contract with M/S
Shandong Yikang Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd and they supplied API from that source which we used in stability studies
but later they authorized M/S Hefei Lifeon Pharma for commercial scale manufacturing of Vonoprazan Fumarate and
provided all documents (CoA, MOA, Stability data, MSDS and DMF) in the name of this new manufacturing site
(M/S Hefei Lifeon Pharma).

Now we would like to inform you that we have arranged API from the new source (M/s. Hefei Lifeon Pharma) for
repeat stability studies of our product Melinta tablets 10 and 20 mg (Vonoprazan Fumarate tablets).
All documents related to purchase of API from M/S Hefei Lifeon Pharma like copy of DRAP receiving NOC, Form3,
Form6, Form7, GMP, COAs are enclosed with the application for ready reference.

As we have already submitted 06 months accelerated stability data along with 18 months data of real time stability
study with previous manufacturer, we would request competent authority to allow us to submit 03 months stability
data of our product with new source of API for registration.

We shall provide a written undertaking to continue 06 months accelerated stability studies and real time stability
studies till shelf life and also submit stability data to competent authority if required.

We further request to pend our application till submission of fresh stability data of 03 months.
I hope your kind honour will consider our application and give us favour in this regard.
Previous Decision: Registration Board acceded firm’s request and deferred for submission of stability data as per
requirement decided in 293rd meeting.(M-307)

As product is fast dissolving in all three pH mediums (pH

Previous Decision: Deferred for further deliberations.(M-297)


Reply by firm: This is in reference to our application of Melinta Tablets 10 and 20 mg (Vonoprazan Fumarate tablets)
deferred in 297th meeting of registration board for further deliberation.

Our case was deferred as API supplier cancelled contract manufacturing agreement with manufacturer who supplied
API for stability studies of our product and contracted a different API manufacturer for future supplies.

M/S Beijing THTD Pharmaceutical Technology Co. Ltd. is our supplier. Previously they had contract with M/S
Shandong Yikang Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd and they supplied API from that source which we used in stability studies
but later they authorized M/S Hefei Lifeon Pharma for commercial scale manufacturing of Vonoprazan Fumarate and
provided all documents (CoA, MOA, Stability data, MSDS and DMF) in the name of this new manufacturing site
(M/S Hefei Lifeon Pharma).

Now we would like to inform you that we have arranged API from the new source (M/s. Hefei Lifeon Pharma) for
repeat stability studies of our product Melinta tablets 10 and 20 mg (Vonoprazan Fumarate tablets).
All documents related to purchase of API from M/S Hefei Lifeon Pharma like copy of DRAP receiving NOC, Form3,
Form6, Form7, GMP, COAs are enclosed with the application for ready reference.

As we have already submitted 06 months accelerated stability data along with 18 months data of real time stability
study with previous manufacturer, we would request competent authority to allow us to submit 03 months stability
data of our product with new source of API for registration.

We shall provide a written undertaking to continue 06 months accelerated stability studies and real time stability
studies till shelf life and also submit stability data to competent authority if required.

We further request to pend our application till submission of fresh stability data of 03 months.

I hope your kind honour will consider our application and give us favor in this regard.
Previous Decision: Registration Board acceded firm’s request and deferred for submission of stability data as per
requirement decided in 293rd meeting.(M-307)

following conclusions,
Conclusions
1. Olopatadine HCl is stable after 24h in solution.
2. Olopatadine HCl is stable at 105°C after 24h.
3. Olopatadine HCl is stable at 150°C.
4. The product is stable at daylight radiation after 24 h. The
appearance of the product was not changed after the exposure
5. After the treatment with Hydrochloride acid, 1N, Olopatadine
HCl is found to be stable.
6. After the treatment with Sodium hydroxide, Olopatadine HCl
is found to be stable.
7. Oxidizing conditions: After oxidizing conditions Olopatadine
HCl suffers a slight degradation (2%).
8. Combined conditions:
- Acid condition at 60°: Olopatadine shows a little degradation
(0.5%)
- Alkaline conditions at 60°C: Olopatadine shows a very slightly
degradation.
- Oxidizing conditions at 60°C: The product degrades around
20%.
9. After each degradation test, the peak of Olopatadine HCl was
shown to represent a pure substance since the purity angle was
below the purity threshold in each case. This demonstrates that
the product peak is homogeneous and does not mask any other
impurities.
As conclusion the HPLC method adopted by manufacturer is as
per USP and same will be used for FPP analysis and suitable to
determine the impurities originated after the forced degradation
conditions; and during stability conditions conducted at Zone II
or Zone-IVA/IVB or any, the method is stability indicating.
Decision:
• Registration Board decided to approve registration of Xepat-OD 0.7% Opthalmic Solution with USP
specifications by M/s Sante Pvt Ltd.
• Manufacturer will place first three commercial batches of product on long term stability studies
throughout proposed shelf life and on accelerated studies for six months.
• Manufacturer will perform process validation of first three commercial batches as per the commitment
submitted in the registration application.
• Moreover, Manufacturer will conduct degradation studies on commercial Batches.

able to withstand. Some other physical tests are performed
to assess the strength of the compact as well as response to

but firm used 100 ul. In the assay as per USP final concentration of standard and
justification is needed sample is 0.1 mg/ml
OR 0.1 µg/µl ( Note 1 mg = 1000µg , and 1 ml = 1000µl),
in USP in the assay the injection volume prescribed is 50
µl, so final concentration to be injected with 50 µl injection
volume would be 0.1 x 50 = 5 µg
The Firm in the assay prepared the standard and sample
concentration 2 times less to the concentration specified in
USP i.e 0.05 mg/ml OR 0.05 µg/µl, so the final
concentration injected into the chromatograph in the assay
with 100 µl volume injection is 0.05 x 100=5 µg.
So in the assay the same concentration of standard and
sample injected which was required as per USP.
Also By Using 100 µl, RSD of standard in system suitability
is less than 2%, which is within the limit. (Data submitted)

overage added in the formulation
2. 3.2.P.8 Justify the selection of limit of assay test For the case of Vitamin preparations
as “90 – 150 %” while the official limit normally and most of the cases followed
of vitamin preparations is 120%. Compendial limits are 90-130%. In our
nivitex inj 500mcg we have added 30% of
overage in the batch formula. Unit contains
30% of overage of API,

Minutes of 316th meeting of Registration Board (15-18 March, 2022) | 578


So considering the addition of 30% of
overage, assay limits are set as 90-150%.
We have now revised the specs and make it
more stringent after complete stability data
and market feedback, so the revised limits
are now set as 90-130%.
3. 3.2.P.8 Justify how UV method was adopted for M/s Bio-labs have the registration of our
the testing of drug product, since the product Mine injection as per manufacture
testing method of drug substance specification and UV-VIS
manufacturer for assay of mecobalamin Spectrophotometer method is DRAP
was based on HPLC approved method. Since stability data is
proved at old batches of 2018 so the applied
method is UV-VIS Spectrophotometer
which has been updated now. Validation of
the applied testing method has been
provided in terms of all the parameters as per
validation guidelines.
4. 3.2.P.8 Justify the effective date on stability Effective data on stability data sheet is 01-
data sheet is 01-01-2020 but the stability 01-2020 because old data has been provided
starts at 29-08-2018 on the new formats. Formats for
interpretations of stability results are new
and revised with old stability data for
presentation.
5. 3.2.P.8 Justify the results of assay as all the Results of assay showed normal decrease in
batches just showed minor decrease in assay results, which is well within the trend
assay results less than which is usually as of vitamins preparation. In the stability
observed in vitamin preparations. data provided, assay results decreases
Scientific justification / clarification is gradually e.g. in batch number A-431 assay
required in this regard. results decreases from 12.62% to 109.93%
(stability sheet for real time analysis
provided), in batch number A-433 assay
results decreased from 121.21% to 107.23%
and in batch number A-456 results
decreased from 121.2% to 106.83%.
Decision: Deferred for following:
• Justification for applying UV spectrophotometric method for the Assay test of drug product, since the
testing method of drug substance manufacturer for assay of mecobalamin was based on HPLC
• Justification for the declining trend of Assay results.
• Justification of the percentage of overage added in the formulation.

Regulatory Authorities warning:
WARNING: LACTIC ACIDOSIS
Postmarketing cases of metformin-associated lactic acidosis have
resulted in death, hypothermia, hypotension, and resistant
bradyarrhythmias. The onset of metformin associated lactic
acidosis is often subtle, accompanied only by nonspecific
symptoms such as
malaise, myalgias, respiratory distress, somnolence, and
abdominal pain. Metformin associated lactic acidosis was
characterized by elevated blood lactate levels (>5 mmol/Liter),
anion gap acidosis (without evidence of ketonuria or ketonemia),
an increased lactate/pyruvate ratio; and metformin plasma levels
generally >5 mcg/mL.
Risk factors for metformin-associated lactic acidosis include renal
impairment, concomitant use of certain drugs (e.g. carbonic
anhydrase inhibitors such as topiramate), age 65 years old or
greater, having a radiological study with contrast, surgery and
other procedures, hypoxic states (e.g., acute congestive heart
failure), excessive alcohol intake, and hepatic impairment.
Steps to reduce the risk of and manage metformin-associated lactic
acidosis in these high-risk groups are provided.
If metformin-associated lactic acidosis is suspected, immediately
discontinue GLUCOPHAGE or GLUCOPHAGE XR and institute
general supportive measures in a hospital setting. Prompt
hemodialysis is recommended.

• The firm has stated that 4-aminophenol is generated by the hydrolysis of Paracetamol. Hydrolysis depends
upon the pH, temperature and time. Hydrolysis is increased at higher pH, temperature and with time. The
optimum pH to avoid hydrolysis is 5.5-6.0 while the limits is specifications are 6.3-7.3 because the pH of
Ibuprofen sodium dihydrate has a pH of 7.1-7.3 at a concentration as in the finished product. No buffer can
be used as paracetamol is incompatible with the buffers.
• Therefore, the pH increase can only be justified when the product is stored at 25oC since all the parameters of
the preparation are in conformance at a pH between 6.4 to 7.3.
• The product can be administered in any post operative setting to manage post operative acute pain. The firm
has not provided any reference for the indications.
• However, as per TGA Australia following is the indication.

3.2. Describe the particulars of drug substance on the basis of which 20% overage has been
P.2.2.2 claimed for Folic acid & Cyanocobalamin
The unusual assay limits were due to the overages in Cyanocobalamin and Folic acid.
Initially the upper limit was set to 150% due to 20% overage. Now, based on stability
data, the upper limit of assay has been revised to 125%.and we will cut down the
overages accordingly. Revised specifications and testing procedure are submitted.
Reply • Some active pharmaceutical ingredients including several vitamins in certain
dosage forms or packaging condition may be susceptible to degrade or deteriorate
and may not remain their native form over the shelf life of product. Degradation
or deterioration of vitamins is one of the major factors that lead manufacturer to
require excess amount of vitamins in their products, to ensure the amount of the
drug substance meets the requirement of 100% of the label claim amount
throughout the shelf life of the product. (Referred Pharmacopeial Forum
Vol.42.42 (3) [May-June 2016], Stimuli to the Revision Process, Factors to
Consider in Setting Adequate Overages of Vitamins and Minerals in Dietary
Supplements).
• ELEZO BF Capsules was developed as per the formulation of reference listed drug
(RLD) i.e. Ferrex 150 Forte Capsule manufactured by Mis.Contract Pharmacal
Corp. Hauppauge, NY 11788 USA. During chemical testing of RLD product,
assay of Folic Acid (Vitamin B9) was observed around 110% and assay of
Cyanocobalamin (Vitamin B12) was observed around 110%. On the basis of assay
results of RLD product, formulation of ELEZO BF Capsules was suggested with
20% overage for both Folic Acid (Vitamin B9) and Cyanocobalamin (Vitamin
B12) to compensate any process loss followed by the expected loss in assay during
stability studies due to nature of the molecules.
• The stability trending of our product shows about 4.29 to 6.41 % loss in assay of
Folic Acid (Vitamin 89) under accelerated condition as well as 2.37 to 4.05% loss
under long term condition, and 9.41 to 13.03% loss in assay of Cyanocobalamin
(Vitamin B12) under accelerated condition as well as 2.47 to 4.59% loss under
long term condition.
• Moreover, 20% overage was not fixed, as mentioned above, it is a global practice
to take overages for vitamins during development studies and this was also evident
in assay results of the RLD product as well.
• However, after evaluation of the stability data and till the latest time period i.e. 24
months, we recommend to reduce the overage of Folic Acid (Vitamin B9) from
20% to 7% and Cyanocobalamin (Vitamin B12) from 20% to 13%.
3.2. P.5.1 • Justify the unusual Assay limits of Cyanocobalamin & Folic acid.
• Submitted drug product specifications does not include test of dissolution.
Justification shall be submitted in this regard.
Reply • Assay limits were set considering the overage of Cyanocobalamin, folic acid and
based on USP specifications for Cyanocobalamin Gel that is 90 to 155 %.
• On the basis of analysis of stability data, we have revised the Assay limit of
cyanocobalamin & Folic acid from 90%-150% to 90-125% from 9th month interval
to onwards.
• While we have come to conclude that the product is stable till 24 months therefore
we will further reduce the overages up to 90 to 120 %, please find submitted
revised specifications.
• Dissolution test for cyanocobalamin not performed due to following reasons:
“It falls in BCS Class Ill and having a good solubility
The dissolution of the product is ensured by its Disintegration time which is
established within 10-15 mins during its shelf life through stability studies (stability
summaries are attached for your reference).

Label claim of Cyanocobalamin in applied formulation is 25mcg/ capsule and the
concentration of the API in dissolution test is about 0.05 PPM which is difficult to
detect
As per USP general chapters for dissolution of water-soluble multivitamins and
mineral tablets, it is recommended to perform dissolution of One index water-soluble
vitamin, one index element, and folic acid (if present)
Definition of Index Vitamin and Index element as per USP:

Index water-soluble vitamin:


"Riboflavin is the index vitamin when present in the formulation. For formulations
that do not contain riboflavin, pyridoxine is the index vitamin. If neither riboflavin nor
pyridoxine is present in the formulation, the index vitamin is niacinamide (or niacin),
and in the absence of niacinamide (or niacin), the index vitamin is thiamine. If none
of these four water-soluble vitamins are present in the formulation, the index vitamin
is ascorbic acid."
Index element:
"Iron is the index element when present in the formulation. For formulations that do
not contain iron, the index element is calcium. If neither iron nor calcium is present,
the index element is zinc. In the absence of all three of these elements, magnesium is
the index element."
Therefore, we performed dissolution of Folic acid and Iron content only.
