DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION OF STABILITY INDICATING RP-HPLC METHOD FOR THE SIMULTANEOUS ESTIMATION OF EPALRESTAT AND PREGABALIN IN TABLET DOSAGE FORMS

A Simple, selective, accurate, precise, linear, and stability-indicating RP-HPLC method was developed and validated for the estimation of Cinacalcet hydrochloride in bulk and tablet dosage forms. Chromatographic separation was achieved on X-Terra Symmetry C18 (4.6 x 150mm; 5 m) with mobile phase containing Phosphate buffer: Acetonitrile (40:60 v/v) pH adjusted to 3.0 ±0.05 with diluted ortho-phosphoric acid. The flow rate was maintained at 0.9 mL/min. The eluent was monitored at 282 nm. Moreover, the retention time of Cinacalcet was 2.8 minutes. The method was validated for linearity, accuracy, precision, and robustness as per ICH guidelines. The developed method was found linear between 25-150 μg/ml, and the linear regression coefficient was 0.999. The % RSD values are less than 2 % indicating the accuracy and precision of the method. The percentage of recovery was obtained from 98-102%. The system suitability parameters were found to be within the limit. Forced degradation studies were conducted under various conditions. The proposed method is simple, rapid, precise, and accurate. It can be used for the quantitation of Cinacalcet hydrochloride in bulk and commercial pharmaceutical dosage forms.

The present work was the development of a simple, efficient, and reproducible stability-indicating reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method for simultaneous determination enrofloxacin (EFX) and its degradation products including ethylenediamine impurity, desfluoro impurity, ciprofloxacin impurity, chloro impurity, fluoroquinolonic acid impurity, and decarboxylated impurity in tablet dosage forms. The separation of EFX and its degradation products in tablets was carried out on Kromasil C-18(250×4.6 mm, 5 μm) column using 0.1% (v/v) TEA in 10 mM KH2PO4(pH 2.5) buffer and methanol by linear gradient program. Flow rate was 1.0 mL min−1with a column temperature of 35°C and detection wavelength was carried out at 278 nm and 254 nm. The forced degradation studies were performed on EFX tablets under acidic, basic, oxidation, thermal, humidity, and photolytic conditions. The degraded products were well resolved from the main active drug and also from known impurities within 65 minutes. The method was validated in terms of specificity, linearity, LOD, LOQ, accuracy, precision, and robustness as per ICH guidelines. The results obtained from the validation experiments prove that the developed method is a stability-indicating method and suitable for routine analysis.
