Objective To prepare ebastine dispersible tablets by hot-melt dispersion method using hypromellose as a carrier.Methods Ebastine was heated to melt and dispersed in hot solution of hypromellose.The mixture was adsorbed by mannitol and then used to prepare dispersible tablets.The characteristics of hot-melt dispersion were analyzed by the methods of differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray powder diffraction.A comparison of dissolution curves between self-made dispersible tablets and original ebastine tablets was performed.Results The analysis of X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry showed that the ebastine in solid matrix remained the main crystalline characteristics.The dissolution of ebastine hot-melt dispersion was 95.07% in 15 min in vitro, which was significantly higher than that of micronized ebastine raw material.Moreover, the accumulative dissolution of ebastine dispersible tablets in 30 min was about 30% higher than the original drug.Conclusion The method of hot-melt dispersion using hypromellose as a carrier improved the ebastine dissolution significantly.
