Description

Overview
USP monographs for inhalation products are referenced for both product release testing and product development. The Fluticasone Propionate (FP) inhalation aerosol monograph defines dedicated sampling and impactor arrangements to ensure monograph‑compliant measurements.

FP Aerosol — Key information
The FP monograph distinguishes apparatus and flow requirements for Delivered Dose Uniformity (DDU) and Aerodynamic Particle Size Distribution (APSD). It references specialised induction port and inlet geometries and specifies the use of a modified Andersen Cascade Impactor (ACI) configuration for APSD.

DDU (Delivered Dose Uniformity)
DDU testing for FP aerosols requires a specific glass sampling apparatus as specified in the monograph. This apparatus is used to collect emitted dose samples for uniformity assessment.

APSD (Aerodynamic Particle Size Distribution)
APSD measurement is specified using an Andersen Cascade Impactor (ACI) adapted for FP aerosols and powders. The monograph references a specially modified induction port (common to aerosols and powders), a modified inlet cone for aerosols and a preseparator for powders. The APSD method in the FP monograph references the 28.3 L/min ACI configuration (Stages 0–7 plus filter stage), despite alternative powder‑method flow rates elsewhere.
