Comparative qualitative and quantitative assessment of selected brands of Co-trimoxazole tablets and suspensions procured from Lagos State, Nigeria using first derivative UV spectroscopy and HPLC
Abstract:Background: The use of High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) to evaluate the quality of co-trimoxazole formulations is relatively expensive, and First Derivative UV Spectroscopic (FDS) technique may be alternatively used. There are no studies evaluating the quality of locally manufactured sulphamethoxazole/trimethoprim (SMX/TMP) dosage forms procured from Lagos, Nigeria. The aim of the work was to evaluate the quality attributes of selected co-trimoxazole tablets and suspensions marketed in Lagos, Nige… Show more
