Development of a stability-indicating high performance liquid chromatography method for assay of erythromycin ethylsuccinate in powder for oral suspension dosage form

A Simple, precise, and accurate stability-indicating reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography method has been established for the simultaneous estimation of rosuvastatin calcium and fenofibrate in combined bulk and tablet formulation. The chromatographic separation was performed on reverse phase Princeton (C18) (250 mm x 4.6 mm, 5µ) column with mobile phase as a mixture of water (pH adjusted to 3.0 with orthophosphoric acid) and acetonitrile in the ratio (40:60) v/v at the flow rate 1.0 ml/min. Detection was carried out at wavelength 240 nm. The retention time under the optimized condition of Rosuvastatin calcium and Fenofibrate was found to be 2.485 & 3.905 minutes respectively. The calibration curve was linear in the range of 6-16 µg/ml and 87-232 µg/ml for rosuvastatin calcium and fenofibrate with a correlation coefficient of 0.9999 and 0.9994 respectively. Relative standard deviation values for all key parameters were less than 2.0%. The percentage recovery was found to be 99.66-100.37% and 99.13-100.44% for rosuvastatin calcium and fenofibrate respectively. The developed reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography method was found to be simple, specific, sensitive, rapid, linear, accurate, precise, and economical, and could be used for regular quality control of rosuvastatin calcium and fenofibrate in bulk and tablet formulations.

The new stability-indicating high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method has been developed and validated with different parameters for atenolol (ATE) and nifedipine (NIFE) in the combined dosage form. The chromatographic conditions were optimized using a mobile phase of MeOH:OPA (70:30) with a flow rate of 0.7 mL/min. Column (C18) of 4.6 × 250 mm dimension was used as a stationary phase; the particle size capacity of the column was 5 μm. The detection was carried out at 233 nm. The method was validated according to ICH guidelines for linearity, precision, repeatability, the limit of detection (LoD), and limit of quantitation (LoQ). The response was found to be linear in the concentration range of 20 to 100 mcg/mL for ATE and 1 to 5 mcg/mL for NIFE. The developed method shows the minimum quantity of drugs to be identified (LoD) and minimum drug to be quantified (LoQ). The LoD and LoQ were found to be 0.1415 and 0.4289, respectively, for ATE, and 0.1834 and 0.5558, respectively, for NIFE. The method was linear, simple, precise, and accurate and, therefore, suitable for routine analysis of drugs in tablet form. The forced degradation studies were also done through the exposure of analyte solution to four different stress conditions.
