Abstract

Nine polymorphic modifications of doxazosin mesylate have been obtained by recrystallization in organic solvents under variable conditions. Different polymorphs of doxazosin mesylate were characterized by powder X-ray crystallography diffractometry (PXRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric analysis (TG). Transformation of Form 1 and Form 2 was not occurred in three relative humidities (0%, 51%, and 99%) at 20±0.5 for 30 days.
