Bendroflumethiazide (BFMT) hydrolyses to 5-trifluormethyl 2,4-disulfoa
moylaniline (TFSA) and phenylacetaldehyde. In solid dispersions of BFM
T in polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG) and poloxamer 188 (PPEO) an unknow
n product was detected, isolated and identified as hydroflumethiazide
(HFMT). HFMT was produced by the reaction of TFSA with formaldehyde be
ing formed from PEG and from PPEO under stress conditions.
