Two decades ago, postmarket discovery of a second crystal form of ritonavir with lower solubility had major implications for drug manufacturers and patients. Since then, ritonavir has been reformulated via the hot-melt-extrusion process in an amorphous form. Here, quantitative low- and mid-frequency Raman spectroscopy methods were developed to characterize polymorphs, form I and form II, in commercial ritonavir 100 mg oral tablets as an alternate analysis approach compared to X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD). Crystallization in three lots of ritonavir products obtained from four separate manufacturers was assessed after storage under accelerated conditions at 40 °C and 75% relative humidity (RH). Results were compared with quantitative XRPD methods developed and validated according to ICH Q2 (R1) guidelines. In a four-week open-dish study, form I crystallization occurred in two of the four products and form II crystallization was detected in another ritonavir product. The limits of detection for XRPD, low-frequency Raman (LFR), and mid-frequency Raman (MFR) were determined to be 0.7, 0.8, and 0.5% for form I and 0.6, 0.6, and 1% for form II, respectively. Root-mean-squared-error of predictions were 0.6-1.0 and 0.6-2.5% for LFR- and MFR-based partial least-squares models. Further, ritonavir polymorphs could also be identified and detected directly from ritonavir tablets using transmission LFR. In summary, LFR was applied for the assessment of polymorphism in real-world samples. While providing analytical performance similar to conventional techniques, LFR reduced the single measurement time from 66 min (XRPD) to 10 s (LFR) without the need for tedious sample preparation procedures.
