Abstract
Thiamine hydrochloride (THCL), also known as vitamin B1, is an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), present on the list of essential medicines developed by the WHO, which proves its importance for public health. THCL is highly hygroscopic and can occur in the form of hydrates with varying degrees of hydration, depending on the air humidity. Although experimental characterization of the THCL hydrates has been described in the literature, the questions raised in previously published works suggest that additional research and in-depth analysis of THCL dehydration behavior are still needed. Therefore, the main aim of this study was to characterize, by means of quantum chemical calculations, the behavior of thiamine hydrates and explain the previously obtained results, including changes in the NMR spectra, at the molecular level. To achieve this goal, a series of DFT (CASTEP) and DFTB (DFTB+) calculations under periodic boundary conditions have been performed, including molecular dynamics simulations and GIPAW NMR calculations. The obtained results explain the differences in the relative stability of the studied forms and changes in the spectra observed for the samples of various degrees of hydration. This work highlights the application of periodic DFT calculations in the analysis of various solid forms of APIs.

Abstract
Inkjet printing is a form of additive manufacturing where liquid droplets are selectively deposited onto a substrate followed by solidification. The process provides significant potential advantages for producing solid oral dosage forms or tablets, including a reduction in the number of manufacturing steps as well as the ability to tailor a unique dosage regime to an individual patient. This study utilises solvent inkjet printing to print tablets through the use of a Fujifilm Dimatix printer. Using polyvinylpyrrolidone and thiamine hydrochloride (a model excipient and drug, respectively), a water-based ink formulation was developed to exhibit reliable and effective jetting properties. Tablets were printed on polyethylene terephthalate films where solvent evaporation in the ambient environment was the solidification mechanism. The tablets were shown to contain a drug loading commensurate with the composition of the ink, in its preferred polymorphic phase of a non-stoichiometric hydrate distributed homogenously. The printed tablets displayed rapid drug release. This paper illustrates solvent inkjet printing's ability to print entire free-standing tablets without an edible substrate being part of the tablet and the use of additional printing methods. Common problems with solvent-based inkjet printing, such as the use toxic solvents, are avoided. The strategy developed here for tablet manufacturing from a suitable ink is general and provides a framework for the formulation for any drug that is soluble in water.

Abstract
Tailor-made additives can prove an effective method to prolong the lifetime of metastable forms of pharmaceutical compounds by surface stabilization. Pyrazinamide (PZA) is a pharmaceutical compound with four polymorphic forms. The high temperature γ form, which can be produced by spray drying or sublimation growth, is metastable at room temperature and transforms within days when produced by spray drying, and within several months up to years for single crystals produced by sublimation. However, when PZA is cospray dried with 1,3-dimethylurea (DMU), it has been reported to remain in its γ form for several years. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images reveal that the phase transition from γ-PZA to the low temperature forms involves a vapor-mediated recrystallization, while the reverse phase transition upon heating is a nucleation-and-growth solid-solid phase transition. The lifetime-extending effect of DMU on spray-dried PZA has been investigated in more detail and compared with high-energy ball milling of sublimation-grown γ-PZA crystals. Co-ball milling of PZA and DMU is found to extend the lifetime of the high temperature form of PZA to a few months, while separate ball milling leads to an extension of merely a few weeks. DMU acts as an additive that most likely stabilizes the surface of γ-PZA, which would reduce the vapor pressure of PZA, thereby reducing the transition rate. Alternatively, DMU could prevent nucleation of low temperature forms of PZA.
