    Abstract:
    A liquid chromatography method is described for the simultaneous determination of sulfadimetoxine and trimethoprim from a veterinary formulation at the proportion of 187 mg and 40 mg respectively in presence of some excipient. The solution was subjected to different International Conference On Harmonisation prescribed stress conditions (hydrolysis, oxidation and photolysis). A stability-indicating high-performance liquid chromatography method was developed for the analysis of active substances in presence of their major degradation products. It involved a Knauer Eurospher C18 thermostated column at 25 degrees C, and 9.57 mM phosphate buffer (pH adjusted to 2.0 with orthophosphoric acid)-acetonitrile (70:30 v/v) as mobile phase. The mobile phase flow rate and sample volume injected were 1.2 mL/min and 20 microL, respectively. The selected wavelength for the determination was 248 nm. The method was validated for linearity, precision, accuracy and specificity, and then applied to a stability study of sulfadimetoxine and trimethoprim in the veterinary solution packaged in high density polyethylene plastic bottles of 1 L and 100 mL thermosealed and no thermosealed and corked by a white cap, at both accelerated and long-term conditions required by the International Conference On Harmonisation. The method developed, which separates all of the most degradation products formed under variety of conditions, proved to be simple, accurate, precise and specific. The results of the stress degradation show that the solution is more sensitive to hydrolysis. The stability studies carried out on three batches of each presentation show that the finished product remains stable for six months.
