title: Validated stability-indicating HPLC-UV method for simultaneous determination of glipizide and four impurities.
abstract: A selective stability-indicating HPLC-UV method for simultaneous determination of glipizide and four impurities (DPs I-IV) formed under hydrolytic conditions was developed and validated. The drug and impurities were resolved on an XTerra C18 column (250 x 4.5 mm id) in a single gradient run using buffer (0.005 M KH2PO4; pH 3.0)-methanol (60 + 40, v/v; mobile phase A) and (20 + 80, v/v; mobile phase B) at a flow rate of 0.5 mL/min with 230 nm detection wavelength. The method was linear across concentration ranges of 0.2-100, 0.1-100, 0.5-100, 0.2-100, and 0.1-50 microg/mL for glipizide and DPs I-IV, respectively. The RSD for intraday and interday precision for the drug and impurities was < 1 and < 1.2%, respectively. Satisfactory recoveries (96.58-99.97%) of each of the three concentrations selected across the linearity range of each analyte were obtained, proving the method was sufficiently accurate. The LOD was 0.07, 0.05, 0.16, 0.08, and 0.05 microg/mL and the LOQ was 0.20, 0.14, 0.50, 0.23, and 0.14 microg/mL for the drug and DPs I-IV, respectively. Each peak was resolved with resolution of > 2 from the nearest peak. Insignificant changes in retention time (< 4%) and calculated amount (< 1.65%) of drug and each impurity upon small but deliberate changes in various chromatographic parameters were observed, suggesting the method was robust. The method was applied successfully to stability testing of glipizide tablets.
