A propranolol hydrochloride tablet having a low content of N-nitroso propranolol impurities and a method for preparing the same
By using excipients such as mannitol, glyceryl behenate, and magnesium stearate, along with a combination of crospovidone, alanine, and glycine, the problems of poor tableting effect and impurity formation in propranolol hydrochloride tablets were solved, resulting in better tableting effect and prolonged efficacy.

AI Technical Summary
The existing propranolol hydrochloride tablets have poor flowability during the tableting process, resulting in poor tableting effect. In addition, the secondary amine in propranolol hydrochloride is prone to react with nitrosating agents to produce impurities such as N-nitrosoprene propranolol, which affects the efficacy.
Mannitol, glyceryl behenate, and magnesium stearate were used as excipients, and a mixture of crospovidone, alanine, and glycine was added as an inhibitor. By controlling the flowability and uniform dispersion of the excipients, the formation of N-nitrosoprene propranolol was reduced.
It improves the tableting effect and stability of propranolol hydrochloride tablets, reduces the generation of impurity N-nitrosopranolol, prolongs the efficacy, and improves patient compliance.
