Quantitation of Cefadroxil in Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms Using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography

Abstract
A high-performance liquid chromatography method for the quantitation of cefadroxil has been developed. The method has been applied to quantify cefadroxil in pharmaceutical dosage forms (capsules, suspensions and tablets) of 2 different manufacturers. A simple extraction procedure to extract cefadroxil from the dosage forms has been developed. The results were excellent with percent relative standard deviation of 1.2 based on 5 readings. A variety of inactive ingredients present in the dosage forms did not interfere with the assay procedure. After formulating, the suspensions were stable for longer periods at 5° than recommended on the label.
