Ionized form of acetaminophen with improved compaction properties

Abstract

The most widely used antipyretic and analgesic drug, acetaminophen, has the long standing problem of extremely poor tableting properties and has been considered as non-ionizable. Here we report the synthesis of the first ionized solid-state structure, acetaminophen HCl monohydrate, and demonstrate its excellent tableting properties.
