Calcium Acetate Capsules Type of Posting Revision Bulletin Posting Date 27–Dec–2019 Official Date 01–Jan–2020 Expert Committee Chemical Medicines Monographs 6 Reason for Revision Compliance In accordance with the Rules and Procedures of the 2015–2020 Council of Experts, the Chemical Medicines Monographs 6 Expert Committee has revised the Calcium Acetate Capsules monograph. The purpose for the revision is to add Dissolution Test 4 to accommodate FDA-approved drug products with different dissolution conditions and/or tolerances than the existing dissolution tests. • Dissolution Test 4 was validated using a YMC-Pack ODS-A C18 brand of L1 column. The typical retention time for calcium acetate is about 4.3 min. The Calcium Acetate Capsules Revision Bulletin supersedes the currently official monograph. Should you have any questions, please contact Michael Chang, Senior Scientific Liaison (301-230-3217 or [email protected]).
