Quality control of pharmaceuticals requires development of fast, efficient and reliable methods for determination of active compounds as well as known and very often unknown impurities within defined concentration ranges. In this work, a simple and rapid HPLC-UV-DAD method for identification and quantification of pholcodine process related impurities and some degradation products was developed and validated. Pholcodine and its five structural analogues such as morphine, codeine, thebaine, oripavine, and papaverine were separated in less than 10 minutes using reversed phase LiChrospher C-8 column. For optimal chromatographic performance with reproducible retention times, gradient elution with 2% ammonium hydroxide in water and acetonitrile was used. The method was validated by establishing its selectivity, specifity, sensitivity, linearity, intra- and inter-day precision and robustness. All tested parameters confirmed that the method is suitable for determination of pholcodine and its five impurities in pharmaceutical drug samples. The results obtained from real sample analysis give support to the suitability of the proposed method for the purpose of quality control.

In the present study gradient reversed-phase UPLC method was developed for simultaneous determination and separation of impurities and degradation products from drug product. The chromatographic separation was performed on acquity UPLC BEH C18 column (50 mm×2.1 mm, 1.7 µm) using gradient elution. Other UPLC parameters which were optimised are flow rate, 0.7 mL/min; detection wavelength, 220 nm; column oven temperature, 40°C and injection volume 7 µL. Stability indicating capability was established by forced degradation experiments and separation of known degradation products. The method was validated as per International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guideline. For all impurities and mesalamine, LOQ (limit of quantification) value was found precise with RSD (related standard daviation) of less than 2.0%. In essence, the present study provides an improved low detection limit and lower run time for evaluation of pharmaceutical quality of mesalamine delayed-release formulation. Moreover, the developed method was successfully applied for quantification of impurities and degradation products in mesalamine delayed-release formulation. The same method can also be used for determination of related substances from mesalamine drug substance.
