Milling was found to be an advantageous mean to prepare amorphous DEX nonchemically degraded. It appears to be a very useful process that allowed generating crystalline polymorphic transformation, either from the milling induced amorphous sample or from a mechanically damaged polymorphic form. The paper illustrates the interest of milling as a complementary tool to screen crystal polymorphism and to determine the relative stability of polymorphs when the decision is difficult. Physical characterizations were mainly carried out using X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry.Show less >
