This study examines pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic salts of memantine, specifically focusing on hydrogen sulfate, sulfate, and dihydrogen phosphate salts, with the aim of finding alternatives to the commonly used chloride salt in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Through comprehensive solid-state characterization, including powder X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis, and solubility testing, we unveil complex polymorphic behaviors, reversible solid-state transitions, and significant differences in solubility and stability among the salts. Notably, the hydrogen sulfate salt emerges as a promising candidate for drug formulations, offering improved solubility, nonhygroscopic nature, and favorable morphological characteristics compared to the existing chloride salt. This work establishes a foundation for further investigation into memantine salts as potential therapeutics with improved efficacy. |
