VALIDATION OF HPLC METHOD FOR SIMULTANEOUS DETERMINATION OF PSEUDOEPHEDRINE HCl, GUAIFENESIN, CHLORPHENIRAMINE MALEATE AND DEXTROMETHORPHAN HBr
Objectives: Pseudoephedrine HCl, Guaifenesin, Chlorpheniramine Maleate and Dextromethorphan HBr combination is a common combination cough syrup. Many validated methods are available for the determination of each compound alone and in combination with other drugs. The local pharmaceutical industry used to analyze such combination in individual assessment which is efforts and time consuming. The objective of this study is to validate a method for simultaneous determinations of the four compounds in one single injection.
Methods: HPLC method had been develop using detector at 210 nm, column C18 4.6 mm × 250 mm, 3µm and mobile phase of Potassium dihydrogen orthophosphate, acetonitrile, orthophosphoric acid, triethanolamine and water. The column oven temperature is 400C, flow rate 0.8 ml/min and 60 minutes run time. The method had been validated according to the ICH guidelines with respect to method specificity, linearity and range, precision, accuracy and robustness. Limit of detection, quantitation limit and solution stability had been assessed.
Results: The average retention times the 4 compounds are 5.5, 12.63, 15.85, 50.44 minutes. The RSD% is less than 1%, the theoretical plates is more than 2000, the tailing factor is not more than 2 and the resolution between the peaks was found to be above 20. The Method showed an appropriate linearity having correlation coefficient r2 0.9996 – 0.9998. The RSD% of results for two analysts in two different apparatus in two days was less than 2. The test solution is stable for 48 hours.
Conclusion: The method is simple and fulfilled all acceptable criteria for all validation parameters. The method is qualified enough to be used for routine analysis of products containing the four components.

UJPR follows the most transparent and toughest ‘Advanced OPEN peer review’ system. The identity of the authors and, reviewers will be known to each other. This transparent process will help to eradicate any possible malicious/purposeful interference by any person (publishing staff, reviewer, editor, author, etc) during peer review. As a result of this unique system, all reviewers will get their due recognition and respect, once their names are published in the papers. We expect that, by publishing peer review reports with published papers, will be helpful to many authors for drafting their article according to the specifications. Auhors will remove any error of their article and they will improve their article(s) according to the previous reports displayed with published article(s). The main purpose of it is ‘to improve the quality of a candidate manuscript’. Our reviewers check the ‘strength and weakness of a manuscript honestly’. There will increase in the perfection, and transparency.
