Assay—
Proceed with Oral Solution as directed under Salts of Organic Nitrogenous Bases 501, determining the absorbance at the wavelength of maximum absorbance at about 262 nm. Calculate the quantity, in mg, of doxylamine succinate (C17H22N2O·C4H6O4) in each mL of the Oral Solution taken by the formula:
