The effect of pressure on the size and morphology of levofloxacin hydrochloride particles precipitated by supercritical antisolvent precipitation (SAS) was investigated. It is shown that the crystallization of levofloxacin from the two-phase CO2—dimethylforamide—levofloxacin hydrochloride system leads to the production of particles with a bimodal size distribution. Crystallization from a single-phase system leads to a change in the mixing mode of CO2 and solution, and as a result, preci pitation of particles with a monomodal size distribution is observed. Liquid—gas equilibrium curves were obtained for the CO2— dimethylforamide—levofloxacin hydrochloride system at a temperature of 40°C.
