Dissolution profiles in 0.1N hydrochloric acid using both the paddle stirrer apparatus and the spin filter apparatus were obtained for prednisone tablets made by seven different manufacturers and prednisolone tablets made by eight different manufacturers. Dissolution parameters were correlated with results obtained in three human bioavailability trials which were previously reported. Also, results obtained in one apparatus were correlated with those obtained in the other apparatus. Such correlations may be useful in the setting of in vitro dissolution rate specifications for commerical prednisone and prednisolone tablets.
