<p>Particle Size Distribution is a very important parameter to be tested before drug product release. A correct particle size distribution ensures the bioavailability of the active drug on the target site of action. An unapproved particle size distribution may lead to waste of drug doses and decreased efficacy of the dose. For example, a very fine particle/droplet distribution of Nasal Spray (<10 micron) will deposit more spray droplets in the lungs and gastrointestinal tract than the nasal passageway which is the target site of action. To ensure maximum deposition of the spray droplets in the nasal passageway the particle size should be more than 10 micron. Therefore, particle size distribution analysis is an obligatory test before product release.</p>
