Recently, cold and cough dosage forms have gained significant attention due to their use in the supportive protocols for managing COVID-19 symptoms. In this study, a pharmaceutical formulation containing Paracetamol (PAR), Guaifenesin (GUA), and Phenylephrine hydrochloride (PHE) was investigated for spectral resolution and quantification using advanced spectrophotometric methods. The spectra of these components were significantly overlapped and present in their combined tablet in a challenging ratio of 250:100:5 for PAR, GUA, and PHE, respectively.

Herein, we introduce the first chromatographic approaches for the concurrent estimation of paracetamol (PAR), carbinoxamine (CRX), and pseudoephedrine (PSE) intended to relieve COVID-19 and common cold symptoms. The first method was thin layer chromatography (TLC) densitometry, which depends on the separation of the studied medications on TLC silica gel plates using ethyl acetate: methanol: ammonia (7.

Even for established drugs, it is necessary to maintain a cutting-edge impurity control system. To analyze caffeine and chlorphenoxamine hydrochloride in their binary mixture, as well as theophylline and chlorphenoxamine N-oxide as related substances, a reversed phase-high performance liquid chromatography combined with a diode array detector system was created.

UV spectrophotometry is one of the most promising eco-friendly methods, which is integrated with advanced chemometric tools to enhance the selectivity of the analysis of complex mixtures with severe overlapped signals.
Objective: Simultaneous determination of a triple-combination of pseudoephedrine hydrochloride (PSE), carbinoxamine maleate (CRX), and paracetamol (PAR) using an artificial intelligence system and multivariate calibration methods.
A novel spectrofluorimetric method has been developed for determination of antazoline (ANT) and tetryzoline (TET) in their pharmaceutical formulation. A combined application of synchronous spectrofluorimetry and second derivative mathematical treatment was developed. The proposed method depends on reacting the cited drugs with dansyl chloride (DNS-Cl) being a suitable derivatizing agent generating highly fluorescent derivatives measured at emission wavelengths of 703.
