ANALYTICAL METHOD DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION OF PITOLISANT HYDROCHOLRIDE API BY UV- SPECTROPHOTOMETRY Authors: Mohite S , ALHAT H, SALUNKHE T, DHOLE S AND VICHARE V
ABSTRACT
Pitolisant Hydrochloride API a Non-Pharmacopeial drug which is used to treat Narcolepsy. A
simple, precise, and cost-effective UV method was developed and validated for the
estimation of Pitolisant Hydrochloride API. The absorbance and spectral measurements were
done on a double-beam Labindia UV-visible spectrophotometer with the software UV Win.
1cm quartz cells at wavelength 221nm and the solvent system used is Methanol. The method
is developed and validated for linearity, precision, robustness, stability, LOD, LOQ. The
proposed UV-spectrophotometric method for estimation of Pitolisant Hydrochloride API and
its validation was carried out as per ICH Q2(R1) guidelines.
