HPLC-Methods for Separation and Quantitation of Reserpin and its Main Degradation Products

摘要

An analytical method suitable for the stability control of dosage forms containing reserpine by HPLC is described. Besides reserpine the method quantitatively determines isoreserpine, 3,4-didehydroreserpine, trimethoxybenzoic acid, and renoxidine. The additional degradation products reserpic acid, and the secondary oxidation product 3,4,5,6-tetradehydroreserpine are qualitatively recorded.
