The quality evaluation of the pharmaceutical products in every step of
the production process is very important to ensure product quality,
safety, efficacy, and bioavailability. The purpose of this research work
was to assess the physico-chemical quality of four brands of paracetamol
tablets by using official test parameters. About four brands paracetamol
500mg tablets were collected from local drug market in Greater Noida and
the tablets were analyzed by different official quality control
evaluation parameters such as weight uniformity test, thickness,
hardness, friability, disintegration, drug release test, and drug
content assay by using modern analytic techniques UV spectrophotometer
as per IP specification limit. Based on the result of this study, all
the selected brands were passed hardness, thickness, diameter, weight
uniformity test and comply with the IP specification limit.
