Abstract: Quality control is a key requirement in all production stages of the drug, in order to avoid failures and detect quality deviations. The aim of this study was to evaluate the physical and chemical quality of 40 mg propranolol tablets from four national laboratories: the reference product (R), 2 samples of similar drugs (S1 and S2) and 1 sample generic drug (G). The physicochemical properties of the products were evaluated for the determination of average weight, hardness, friability, disintegration, content uniformity and dissolution. Determination of drug content was carried out by UV spectrophotometry at a wavelength of 290 nm. According to the results, it was found that all the samples tested meet the specifications set by the Brazilian Pharmacopoeia 6th Edition.
