Calculate the quantity, in mg, of glyburide (C23 H28ClN3O5S) in the portion of Tablets taken by the formula:
WS (rU / rS)
in which WS is the weight, in mg, of USP Glyburide RS taken to prepare the Standard preparation; and rU and rS are the glyburide peak heights obtained from the Assay preparation and the Standard preparation, respectively.
