Abstract

HPLC analyses of pharmaceutical dosage forms containing analgesics and related compounds (acetylsalicyclic acid, paracetamol, propyphenazone, caffeine and chlorpheniramine) were performed on C 18 and cyano columns under reversed-phase conditions. The performance of the methods was enhanced by introducing postcolumn on-line photochemical derivatization in combination with a diode-array detection. The column effluents were subjected on-line to UV irradiation (254 nm) and the characteristics photo-induced spectral modifications were useful for the unambiguous identification of the various analgesic compounds. The proposed HPLC methods were successfully applied to the analysis of commercially available analgesic dosage forms.
