Hi Kiran,

a generic product must demonstrate BE in the rate (Cmax) and extent of absorption (AUC), right?
If your dissolution method is not predictive (you can’t tell before you have in vivo data!) any difference might – or might not – be relevant.
Run a small pilot study to get an idea. IMHO, it is a waste of time to first tweak the dissolution which possibly was overdiscriminatory.

Scientists often have a naïve faith that
if only they could discover enough facts about a problem,
these facts would somehow arrange themselves
in a compelling and true solution.    Theodosius Dobzhansky
