Cyclizine Hydrochloride Tablets
» Cyclizine Hydrochloride Tablets contain not less than 93.0 percent and not more than 107.0 percent of the labeled amount of C18H22N2·HCl.
Packaging and storage—
Preserve in tight, light-resistant containers.
Identification—
A:
Shake a quantity of finely powdered Tablets, equivalent to about 500 mg of cyclizine hydrochloride, with 25 mL of water for 5 minutes, and filter the mixture. Cool the filtrate in an ice bath, add a slight excess of 1 N sodium hydroxide, and stir well: the precipitate so obtained responds to Identification test B under Cyclizine Hydrochloride.
B:
Tablets meet the requirements under Identification—Organic Nitrogenous Bases

Assay—
Proceed with Tablets as directed under Salts of Organic Nitrogenous Bases 501, diluting the Standard Preparation and the Assay Preparation, respectively, with an equal volume of dilute sulfuric acid (1 in 100), and determining the absorbance at the wavelength of maximum absorbance at about 264 nm. Calculate the quantity, in mg, of C18H22N2·HCl in the portion of Tablets taken by the formula:
