Abstract A simple, accurate and precise RP-HPLC method was developed for the simultaneous determination of chloroquine, pyrimethamine and cetirizine hydrochloride concentrations in bulk drug and human serum. The assay was performed using a mobile phase of methanol: water (70:30) at pH of 2.8 ± 0.05 on the Purospher C-18 column with UV detection at 230 nm and rosuvastatin used as an internal standard. The retention times observed for chloroquine, pyrimethamine and cetirizine hydrochloride were 3.5, 2.5 and 5.5 minutes, respectively. The method was found to be specific for the assayed drugs showing a linear response in the concentration range of 1–100 μg mL−1 with coefficients of determination values of (r = 0.999). The method was developed and validated according to ICH guidelines. The method was used to monitor the serum samples and was found to be sensitive for therapeutic purposes, showing the potential to be a useful tool for routine analysis in laboratories.

Acetaminophen (paracetamol) is an analgesic and antipyretic agent with minimum anti-inflammatory properties. In the present study a simple, fast, accurate, precise and reproducible RP-HPLC method has been developed and validated for the quantification of paracetamol in human serum samples using theophylline as internal standard. Protein precipitation with perchloric acid was employed in the extraction of paracetamol and theophylline from biological matrix. The chromatographic separation was accomplished on Phenomenex C18 column with a mobile phase comprising of 0.05 mM sodium sulfate buffer (pH 2.2 ± 0.02 adjusted with phosphoric acid) and acetonitrile at a ratio of 93:7 at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min. The chromatogram was monitored by UV detection at a wavelength of 254 nm. The method was validated over a linear concentration range of 2-100 ?g/ml and limit of quantification (LOQ) was 1.61 ?g/ml with a correlation coefficient (r2) 0.997. The intra-day and inter-day precision expressed as relative standard deviation were found to be 0.49 - 2.68% and 0.36 - 3.44%, respectively. The average recovery of paracetamol from serum ranged from 99.0 - 106.4%. The method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic study after oral administration of immediate release paracetamol tablet (1000 mg) in four healthy Bangladeshi volunteers. The mean Cmax was found to be 11.03 ± 3.21 ?g/ml, which occurred at Tmax of 0.88 ± 0.14 hr. The half life, AUC0-8 and AUC0-? values were found to be 3.09 ± 0.71 hr, 31.06 ± 6.57 hr-?g/ml and 37.92 ± 9.51 hr- ?g/ml, respectively. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/dujps.v13i2.21889 Dhaka Univ.

Abstract Background Present work describes a fast, simple, and sensitive procedure for the simultaneous determination of cetirizine in the presence of quinolones using diclofenac sodium as an internal standard. The present work was designed to analyze these compounds in pharmaceutical and clinical labs being economical for use. Results The mobile phase consisted of the simple composition of methanol, acetonitrile, and water in a ratio of 50:20:30 with a pH adjusted to 3.1 at a flow rate of 1 mL min−1. The UV detection was performed at 225 nm. The linearity was assessed over the range of 2.5–50 μg mL−1 for all drugs. The parameters such as accuracy, precision, linearity (>0.999), and sensitivity were satisfactory. Conclusion The method was equally applicable for formulation and human serum with recovery values between 95 and 105%. The results of the method were validated statistically according to ICH guidelines.

A simple, rapid, economic, sensitive and precise HPLC method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of Sulphadoxine and Pyrimethamine in pharmaceutical dosage form by taking Tolterodine as an internal standard. The method was carried out using Phenomenex C18 (4.6ID × 250mm; 5µm) column and mobile phase comprised of methanol and Phosphate Buffer in proportion of ratio 60:40 v/v. The flow rate was 1.0mL/min and detection was carried out at 276nm. The retention time of Sulphadoxine, Pyrimethamine and Tolterodine were found to be 2.967, 4.058 and 6.908 respectively. Linearity of Sulphadoxine and Pyrimethamine in the range of 2 to 12μg/mL and 4 to 24μg/mL respectively. The % recoveries of Sulphadoxine and Pyrimethamine were found to be in between 99.93% to 99. 96 % respectively. The proposed method is suitable for the routine quality control analysis for simultaneous determination of Sulphadoxine and Pyrimethamine was in bulk and pharmaceutical dosage form.

In the present study, a simple RP?HPLC method with UV detection has been validated to determine cefdinir concentrations in human serum samples and applied to determine the pharmacokinetic parameters of cefdinir in healthy Bangladeshi male volunteers. The mobile phase consisting of a mixture of 0.2 M sodium dihydrogen phosphate buffer (pH 3.2 ± 0.05 adjusted with o-phosphoric acid) and methanol at a ratio of 70:30 (v/v), was pumped at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min through the C18 column at room temperature and the chromatographic separation was monitored at a wavelength of 254 nm with a sensitivity of 0.0001 AUFS. Cefaclor was used as internal standard. The developed method was selective and linear for cefdinir concentrations ranging from 0.05 to 5 ?g/ml for serum samples. The lower limit of quantification was defined as the lowest concentration on the calibration curve (0.05 ?g/ml) for which an acceptable accuracy of 111.60 % and a precision of 7.65 % were obtained, while the minimum detectable quantity of cefdinir was found to be 0.02 ?g/ml. The intra-day and inter-day coefficient of variation (CV) at 0.05 ?g/ml were 7.65% and 9.72%, respectively. The average recovery of cefdinir from serum was 96.43 %. Acceptable results were obtained during stability study. The mean Cmax of cefdinir was found to be 1.42 ± 0.53 ?g/ml attained at a mean Tmax of 3.81 ± 0.96 hr. The mean elimination half-life was 2.03 hours. This method proved to be simple, accurate and precise for pharmacokinetic and bioequivalence studies of cefdinir.   DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/dujps.v10i2.11790   Dhaka Univ. J. Pharm.

A simple, accurate and reproducible RP-HPLC method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of lamivudine, zidovudine and abacavir in tablet dosage forms. Chromatography was carried out on a HiQ Sil C 18 V column using a mobile phase consisting of 0.01 M potassium dihydrogenortho-phosphate (pH 3.0) and methanol (55:45 v/v) at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. The detection was made at 272 nm and stavudine was used as the internal standard for this study. The retention times for lamivudine, abacavir and zidovudine were found to be 3.8, 6.3, 8.1 min. respectively. The calibration curves were linear over the range 5-250 μg/mL for both zidovudine and abacavir and 5-140 μg/mL for lamivudine. The proposed method was validated as per ICH and USP guidelines and it was found suitable for the routine quality control analysis of the drugs in tablet dosage forms.
