Background: Cinnarizine is used to treat nausea and vomiting accompanied by motion sickness. Dimenhydrinate is used in the treatment of nausea and vomiting and dizziness. The coformulation of the two drugs showed the lowest rate of adverse effects compared to single dimenhydrinate. Objective: A fully validated ultra-performance liquid chromatographic method has been conducted for the simultaneous estimation of cinnarizine (CIN) and dimenhydrinate (DIM). Materials and Methods: The UPLC method used Acquity Column as stationary phase and mobile phase methanol: buffer (pH = 3.5 ± 0.05) and acetonitrile in the ratio of 50: 25: 25 at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min. Detection was performed by DAD at 260 nm. Results and Discussion: Retention time was 0.71 and 1.12 min for DIM and CIN, respectively. The linearity was found to be 1-40 μg/mL and 2-80 μg/mL for CIN and DIM; respectively. Conclusion: The method was appropriately used for the quantitation of both drugs in pure form, synthetic mixtures and tablet preparation.

Background:The concept of green analytical chemistry prevails due to the growing environmental pollution.Objective:Our attempts are to develop simple and eco-friendly method which is non-harmful to the environment by producing minimal waste. In this context, a green liquid chromatographic method was applied for the simultaneous determination of chlorpheniramine maleate, pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and propyphenazone in their combined dosage form.Methods:Separation was carried out using X select HSS RP C18 analytical column (250 × 4.6 mm, 5μm) using methanol - 0.02 M phosphate buffer pH 3 - triethylamine (60:40: 0.1, by volume) as a mobile phase. The separated peaks were detected at 215 nm at a flow rate 1.0 mL/min.Results:Quantification was done over the concentration ranges of 1-25 µg/mL for chlorpheniramine maleate, 5-35 µg/mL for pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and 10-120 µg/mL for propyphenazone. The suggested method was validated with regard to linearity, accuracy and precision according to the International Conference on Harmonization guidelines with good results.Conclusion:It could be used as a safer alternative for routine analysis of the mentioned drugs in quality control laboratories.

An isocratic, reversed phase-liquid-chromatographic assay method was developed for the quantitative determination of ibuprofen and famotidine in combined-dosage form. A Brownlee C18, 5 μm column with mobile phase containing water : methanol : acetonitrile (30 : 60 : 10, v/v/v) was used. The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min, and effluents were monitored at 264 nm. The retention times of ibuprofen and famotidine were 4.9 min and 6.8 min, respectively. The linearity for ibuprofen and famotidine was in the range of 2–20 μg/mL and 0.1–10 μg/mL, respectively. The proposed method was validated with respect to linearity, accuracy, precision, specificity, and robustness. The method was successfully applied to the estimation of ibuprofen and famotidine in combined dosage form.

Objective: The aim of the present work is the development of new, sensitive, specific, and accurate high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the separation and determination of dapagliflozin and its impurities in tablet dosage form. Methods: The chromatographic separation of drug and its impurities was achieved using Hypersil BDS C18 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 μ) with mobile phase consisted of mobile phase-A (Buffer pH 6.5) and mobile phase-B (acetonitrile:water 90:10) by gradient program at a flow rate of 1 mL/min with ultraviolet detection at 245 nm. Results: Dapagliflozin and its impurities A, B, C, D, E, and impurity-F were successfully eluted at the retention time of 16.95, 2.72, 7.82, 10.58, 21.11, 30.37, and 34.36 min, respectively, with good resolution. The method was validated according to the international conference on harmonization guidelines. The validation results showed good precision, accuracy, linearity, specificity, sensitivity, and robustness. Conclusion: Successful separation and determination of dapagliflozin and its six impurities were achieved by the proposed method. The developed method can be applied for the routine analysis of dapagliflozin and its impurities in pharmaceutical formulations.
