JAYA PRASANTHI and B. SYAMA SUNDAR Department of Chemistry, Acharya Nagarjuna University, Nagarjuna Nagar, Guntur-522 510, India *Corresponding author: E-mail: [email protected] (Received: 27 May 2012; Accepted: 8 March 2013) AJC-13080 Dapiprazole hydrochloride is an α-adrenergic blocking agent. Chemically, it is 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3-[2-(4- o-tolyl-1-piperazinyl)ethyl]-s- triazolo[4,3-a]pyridine hydrochloride, which is widely used in ophthalmic practice. A stability-indicating RP-HPLC method has been developed and validated which can separate and accurately quantitate dapiprazole related compounds. The method was successfully validated in accordance to ICH guidelines acceptance criteria for system suitability, specificity, linearity, range, precision, accuracy, limits of detection and quantification for the impurities and robustness, following the ICH guidelines. Therefore, the proposed method was suitable for the simultaneous determination of dapiprazole and its process related and degreadation impurities. Finally, the applicability of the method was evaluated in commercial dosage form analysis as well as in stability studies. Key Words: Dapiprazole, Degradants, Validation, Stability indicating HPLC method. INTRODUCTION of dapiprazole in the drug substance. To the best of our know- ledge, no analytical methods are currently available to separate Dapiprazole hydrochloride is an α-adrenergic blocking and quantitate the known process related compounds of 1,2 agent . Chemically, it is 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-3-[2-(4-o-tolyl- dapiprazole API. Furthermore, there is no stability-indicating 3 1-piperazinyl)ethyl]-s-triazolo[4,3-a] pyridine hydrochloride HPLC method reported in the literature that can adequately (empirical formula C19H27N5·HCl, m.w. 361.93). It is a sterile, separate and accurately quantitate dapiprazole and degradation white, lyophilized powder soluble in water. Dapiprazole hydro- compounds.

As part of this review, the Division of Bone, Reproductive and Urologic Products (DBRUP), now the Division of Urology, Obstetrics and Gynecology (DUOG), evaluated the nomination of quinacrine for intrauterine administration for non-surgical female sterilization and recommended that quinacrine should not be included on the 503A Bulks List for this use. This recommendation was based on the lack of information on efficacy comparable to other available methods of female sterilization and serious safety concerns of mutagenicity, cytotoxicity and possible carcinogenicity in use of quinacrine for this indication and route of administration.
