-- In the current study, the in vitro equivalence of two formulations that contain the active ingredient cyclosporine, Sandimmun Neoral® (reference product) and Supramunn® (test product), was evaluated through the comparison of the dissolution profiles at three different pHs (1.2; 4.5 and 6.8) taking the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP 32) established methodology as reference as well as the parameters from the FDA (Food and Drug Administration), WHO (World Health Organization) and EMA (European Medicine Agency). The obtained results show a significant difference in the dissolution percentages of the two cyclosporine formulations, which proves that the reference product and the test product have a different chemo-physical behavior that could be due to changes in the formulation and solubility of the product. Finally, the conclusion is that the reference product and the test product do not have an in vitro equivalence which could imply a different in vivo behavior as well. However, it is necessary to perform a bioequivalence study and to determine the in vivo – in vitro correlation hence to establish the degree of interchangeability among both products. -- Key words: cyclosporine, in vitro equivalence, dissolution profile, bioequivalence, interchangeability.
