Graphic with explanation of proton transfer mechanism between the ionized form of an active pharmaceutical ingredient and excipients in solid dosage forms

Excipient-induced salt disproportionation (conversion from salt form to free form) in the solid state during storage or manufacturing is a severe formulation issue that can negatively influence product performance. However, the role of excipient properties on salt disproportionation and mechanisms of proton transfer between salt and excipients are still unclear.
