The morphology of crystals has an appreciable impact role on the physicochemical properties of drugs. Drug properties such as flowability, dissolution, hardness and bioavailability may be affected by crystallinity behaviours of drugs. The objective of this study was to achieve an improved physicomechanical property of carbamazepine powder through recrystallization from aqueous solutions at different pH values. For this purpose, carbamazapine was recrystallized from aqueous solutions at different pH values (1, 7, 11). The morphology of crystals was investigated using scanning electron microscopy; X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) was used to identify polymorphism; thermodynamic properties were analyzed using differential scanning calorimetery (DSC). Dissolution rate was determined using USP dissolution apparatus. Mechanical behavior of recrystallized carbamazepine powders was investigated by making tablets under different compaction pressure and measuring their hardness. SEM studies showed that the carbamazepine crystallization in different media affected the morphology and size of carbamazepine crystals. The shape of carbamazepine crystals changed from flaky or thin plate-like to needle shape. XRPD and DSC results ruled out any crystallinity changes occurring due to the temperature during recrystallization procedure or pH of crystallization media. The crushing strength of tablets indicated that all of the recrystallized carbamazepine samples had better compactiblity than the original carbamazepine powder. In vitro dissolution studies of carbamazepine samples showed a higher dissolution rate for carbamazepine crystals obtained from media with pH 11 and 1. Carbamazepine particles recrystallized from aqueous solutions of different pH values (all media) appeared to have superior mechanical properties to those of the original carbamazepine sample. Morfologija kristala ima važnu ulogu na fizičko-mehanička svojstva lijekova. Kristaliničnost može utjecati na tečnost, oslobađanje, tvrdoću i bioraspoloživost lijekova. Cilj ovog rada bio je poboljšati fizičko-mehanička svojstva praha karbamazepina prekristalizacijom iz vodenih otopina pri različitim pH vrijednostima (1, 7 i 11). Fizičko-mehanička svojstva prekristaliziranog karbamazepina određivana su na sljedeći način: morfologija kristala ispitivana je pretražnom elektronskom mikroskopijom, polimorfi su identificirani rendgenskom difrakcijom praha (XRPD), a termodinamička svojstva analizirana su diferencijalnom pretražnom kalorimetrijom (DSC). Topljivost je određena pomoću aparata po USP. Mehanička svojstva prekristaliziranog karbamazepina ispitivana su tijekom tabletiranja pri različitim tlakovima i mjerenjem tvrdoće nastalih tableta. SEM ispitivanja pokazala su da kristalizacija karbamazepina iz različitih medija utječe na morfologiju i veličinu kristala. Oblik kristala mijenjao se od pahuljastog ili pločastog do igličastog. XRPD i DSC metodom mogle su se pratiti promjene u kristaliničnosti nastale zbog promjene temperature i pH. Mjerenje lomljivosti tableta ukazuje da su svi prekristalizirani uzorci karbamazepina kompaktniji od polaznog praškastog uzorka. Ispitivanja topljivosti in vitro pokazala su da su kristali dobiveni iz otopine pH 11 i 1 topljiviji. Uzorci karbamazepina dobiveni prekristalizacijom iz vodenih otopina različite pH vrijednosti imali su bolja mehanička svojstva od originalnog uzorka karbamazepina.
