Oxybutynin Chloride Tablets
» Oxybutynin Chloride Tablets contain not less than 90.0 percent and not more than 110.0 percent of the labeled amount of C22H31NO3·HCl.
Packaging and storage
Preserve in tight, light-resistant containers.
Identification
Add a portion of powdered Tablets, equivalent to about 50 mg of oxybutynin chloride, to 10 mL of chloroform. Mix for two minutes, and centrifuge. The supernatant layer of the solution so obtained responds to the Thin-Layer Chromatographic Identification Test 201, methanol being used as the developing solvent and iodine vapor being used to visualize the spots.
Dissolution 711
Medium:
water; 900 mL.
Apparatus 2:
50 rpm.
Time:
30 minutes.
Procedure
Determine the amount of C22H31NO3·HCl dissolved using the method set forth in the Assay, making any necessary modifications to the concentration of the Standard preparation to correspond to that of the solution under test.
Tolerances
Not less than 80% (Q) of the labeled amount of C22H31NO3·HCl is dissolved in 30 minutes.
Uniformity of dosage units 905:
meet the requirements.
Assay
Solvent A
Add about 0.9 mL of triethylamine to a filtered and deaerated mixture of water and methanol (3200:800). Adjust with phosphoric acid to a pH of 3.5 ± 0.05.
Mobile phase
Prepare a degassed and filtered mixture of Solvent A and acetonitrile (80:20).
Standard preparation
Prepare a solution of USP Oxybutynin Chloride RS in Mobile phase having an accurately known concentration of about 0.05 mg per mL.
Assay preparation
Weigh and finely powder not less than 20 Tablets. Transfer an accurately weighed portion of the powder, equivalent to about 50 mg of oxybutynin chloride, to a 1000-mL volumetric flask, add about 400 mL of Mobile phase, sonicate for about 10 minutes, shake by mechanical means for about 45 minutes, dilute with Mobile phase to volume, and mix.
Chromatographic system
The liquid chromatograph is equipped with a 203-nm detector, and a 4-mm × 30-cm column that contains packing L10. The flow rate is about 2 mL per minute. Chromatograph the Standard preparation, and record the chromatogram as directed for Procedure: the tailing factor is not more than 2.0, and the relative standard deviation for replicate injections is not more than 2.0%.
Procedure
Separately inject equal volumes (about 20 µL) of the Standard preparation and the Assay preparation into the chromatograph, record the chromatograms, and measure the responses for the major peaks. Calculate the quantity, in mg, of C22H31NO3·HCl in the portion of Tablets taken by the formula:
1000C(rU / rS)
in which C is the concentration, in mg per mL, of USP Oxybutynin Chloride RS in the Standard preparation, and rU and rS are the oxybutynin peak responses obtained from the Assay preparation and the Standard preparation, respectively.
