Development and Validation of a Stability-Indicating HPLC Method for the Simultaneous Determination of Florfenicol and Flunixin Meglumine Combination in an Injectable Solution
Thecombination of the powerful antimicrobial agent florfenicol and the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory flunixin meglumine is used
for the treatment of bovine respiratory disease (BRD) and control of BRD-associated pyrexia, in beef and nonlactating dairy cattle.
This study describes the development and validation of an HPLC-UVmethod for the simultaneous determination of florfenicol and
flunixin, in an injectable preparation with a mixture of excipients.The proposed RP-HPLC method was developed by a reversed
phase- (RP-) C18e (250mm× 4.6 mm, 5 m) column at roomtemperature, with an isocraticmobile phase of acetonitrile and water
mixture, and pH was adjusted to 2.8 using diluted phosphoric acid, a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min, and ultraviolet detection at 268 nm.
The stability-indicating method was developed by exposing the drugs to stress conditions of acid and base hydrolysis, oxidation,
photodegradation, and thermal degradation; the obtained degraded products were successfully separated from the APIs. This
method was validated in accordance with FDA and ICH guidelines and showed excellent linearity, accuracy, precision, specificity,
robustness, LOD, LOQ, and system suitability results within the acceptance criteria.This research was supported by the Advanced Veterinary

A Validated Stability-Indicating HPLC Method for Simultaneous Determination of Amoxicillin and Enrofloxacin Combination in an Injectable Suspension
The combination of amoxicillin and enrofloxacin is a well-known mixture of veterinary
drugs; it is used for the treatment of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. In the scientific
literature, there is no high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-UV method for the
simultaneous determination of this combination. The objective of this work is to develop and
validate an HPLC method for the determination of this combination. In this regard, a new, simple and
efficient reversed-phase HPLC method for simultaneous qualitative and quantitative determination
of amoxicillin and enrofloxacin, in an injectable preparation with a mixture of inactive excipients, has
been developed and validated. The HPLC separation method was performed using a reversed-phase
(RP)-C18e (250 mm 4.0 mm, 5 m) column at room temperature, with a gradient mobile phase
of acetonitrile and phosphate buffer containing methanol at pH 5.0, a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min and
ultraviolet detection at 267 nm. This method was validated in accordance with the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) and the International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines and
showed excellent linearity, accuracy, precision, specificity, robustness, ruggedness, and system
suitability results within the acceptance criteria. A stability-indicating study was also carried
out and indicated that this method can also be used for purity and degradation evaluation of
these formulations.The authors are thankful to The Advanced Veterinary Manufacturing Company (Palestine)

Development and Evaluation of Parenteral Solution containing Florfenicol and Flunixin Meglumine for Veterinary Use
Parenteral dosage forms are one of the most commonly used pharmaceutical dosage forms in veterinary medicine, at the same time
the combination therapy of multiple drug products is a common practice in this field. The aim of this research was to develop a high
quality, stable solution that combines Florfenicol and Flunixin meglumine in a multidose injectable dosage form. Different organic
solvents were tested to determine the optimal solvent for the active substances in the formulation. Citric acid was used in the
formulation to overcome the problem of Flunixin instability and ethyl alcohol was incorporated in the formula in order to enhance
syringeability and injectability of the solution. All prepared formulations were evaluated for their chemical and physical stabilities.
The candidate formula showed good physical and chemical stability after two weeks of storage at both room temperature and
accelerated conditions. Samples from three pilot scale batches were stored at accelerated stability conditions for 6 months and
didn’t show any significant physical or chemical instability. A generic parenteral solution drug product containing Florfenicol and
Flunixin meglumine for veterinary use was successfully developed using mixture of organic solvents and excipients.This research was supported by The

A Validated Stability-Indicating HPLC Method for Routine Analysis of an Injectable Lincomycin and Spectinomycin Formulation
Lincomycin and spectinomycin combination therapy is widely used in veterinary medicine for the treatment of gastrointestinal and respiratory infections caused by lincomycin- and spectinomycin-sensitive microorganisms. A simple, reverse phase HPLC method for the analysis of samples of an injectable lincomycin and spectinomycin preparation containing a mixture of inactive excipients has been developed. The HPLC was carried out using the RP-C18 (250 mm × 4.0 mm, 5 μm) column, with the gradient mobile phase consisting of an acetonitrile and phosphate buffer at pH 6; the flow rate of 1 mL/min and ultraviolet detection at 220 nm. This method was validated in accordance with both FDA and ICH guidelines and showed good linearity, accuracy, precision, selectivity, and system suitability results within the acceptance criteria. A stability-indicating study was also carried out and indicated that this method can also be used for purity and degradation evaluation of these formulations
