A stability-indicating HPLC method was developed and validated for the quantitative determination of fexofenadine in tablet dosage forms. An isocratic seperation was achieved using a Zorbax, Eclipse XBD, C-8 Column having 150 x 4.6 mm i.d., 5 µm particle size column with flow rate of 1.2 ml/min and using UV detector to monitor the eluate at 210 nm. The mobile phase consist of phosphate buffer: acetonitrile: methanol (60:20:20; v/v/v) with pH 3.7 adjusted with o-phosphoric acid. The drug was subjected to oxidation, hydrolysis, photolysis and thermal degradation. Fexofenadine was found to degrate in acidic, basic and oxidation condition. Complete seperation of degraded product was achieved from parent compound. All degradation products in an overall analytical run time of approximately 60 min with the parent compound fexofenadine eluting at approximately 12.1 ±0.9 min. The method was linear over the concentration range of 1-100 µg/ml (r2= 0.9970) with limit of detection and quatification of 0.2 µg/ml and 0.6 µg/ml, respectively. The method has the requisite accuracy, selectivity, sencitivity, precision and robustness to assay fexofenadine in tablets. Degradation products resulting from stress studies did not interfere with the detection of fexofenadine and the assay is thus stability indicating.

Background: An enantiomeric separation of stability-indicating high-performance liquid chromatographic method was developed and validated for the analysis of Meclizine enantiomers. The degradation behaviour of Meclizine Hydrochloride was investigated under different stress conditions recommended by International Conference on Harmonization (ICH). Experiment: Enantiomeric resolution of the drug and complete separation from its degradation products were successfully achieved on a Phenomenex® lux cellulose 1 C18 (250 mm × 4.6 mm i.d, 5 µm particle size) column, using UV detector at a wavelength of 230 nm, with mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile, 20mM ammonium bicarbonate at the ratio of 75:25 (v/v), and a flow rate of 1 mL/min. The drug was subjected to alkaline, acidic, neutral, oxidative and photolytic conditions in order to mimic stress conditions. Result: The degradation products were well resolved from main peak and proving the stability-indicating power of the method. The developed method provided linear responses within the concentration range 1-5 µg/mL, and regression analysis showed a correlation coefficient value (r2) of 0.999. The HPLC method was validated as per ICH guidelines with respect to specificity, precision, linearity and robustness. Limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were found to be 0.25 µg/mL and 1.00 µg/mL respectively. Conclusion: The method provides good sensitivity and excellent precision and reproducibility. The method was highly selective, where degradation products and co formulated compounds did not interfere. The proposed method was successfully applied in pharmaceutical preparations.

The present work was focused on the development of rapid, specific and novel stability indicating high performance liquid chromatographic method for determination of racecadotril (RAC) in bulk and capsule formulation. The drug and formulation were subjected to hydrolysis (acidic, alkaline and neutral), oxidative and thermal stress, as per ICH guidelines Q1A (R2). Degradation products of RAC formed under various stress conditions were well separated using a mobile phase containing acetonitrile and water (60:40 V/V) with 0.5% formic acid. Quantification was performed using RP C18 column with the detection wavelength of 230 nm.The method was considered linear in the concentration range of 5-100 μg mL−1 for RAC. Limit of detection and quantitation was found to be 0.15 and 0.45 μg mL−1 respectively. Identification of major stress degradation products was performed using qudrupole electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS) in positive mode. RAC was found to be very unstable under basic condition and is converted into 2-(3-(acetylthio)-2-benzylpropanamido) acetic acid and 2-benzyl-N-(2-hydroxyvinyl) acrylamide. The drug is more stable at neutral pH as compared to acidic and oxidative stress. Under acidic conditions, benzyl 2-(2-benzyl-3-mercaptopropanamido) acetate is the probable degradation product. A stability indicating HPLC method was developed for quantitation of RAC. A strict control should be exerted on the level of basic impurities in formulations.

A sensitive, selective, precise and stability-indicating, new high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the analysis of carvedilol both as a bulk drug and in formulations was developed and validated. As the method could effectively separate the drug from its degradation products, it can be employed as a stability-indicating one. The method was validated for linearity, selectivity, precision, robustness, LOD, LOQ and accuracy. The chromatographic separation was achieved on a Chromolit RP8e, 100x4.6 mm, analytical column. The mobile phase consisted of a mixture of acetonitrile and water (45:55, V/V) (pH 2.5), pH adjusted with formic acid. The absorbance was monitored with a UV detector at 280 nm and the temperature of the analyses was 40?C. The flow rate was 0.5 mL/min. The linearity (r? 0.999), reproducibility (0.68-1.27 %) and recovery (99.71-101.58) were found to be satisfactory. This method enables the simultaneous determination of carvedilol and its degradation products, as well as stability. .
