ABSTRACT: A stability indicating RP-HPLC method was developed and validated for the determination of Irbesartan in bulk and dosage forms using Telmisartan (10 μg/ml) as the internal standard. An Inert ODS C-18, 5μm column having 250 x 4.6mm internal diameter in isocratic mode with mobile phase containing methanol: water (90:10) and the pH was adjusted to 3 with 1 % GAA. The flow rate was 1 ml/min and effluents were monitored at the wavelength of 246 nm. The retention time for Irbesartan was 2.3 min. The method was validated as per ICH guidelines for linearity, accuracy, precision, specificity, limit of detection, limit of quantification and robustness. Limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were found 6.51μg/ml and 1.973μg/ml respectively and recovery of Irbesartan from bulk and dosage forms was found from 99.94% to 99.97%. As the separation of the degradants using this mobile phase is quite good, isolation of the degradants with preparative techniques can also be achieved using this mobile phase. The drug was prone to degrade more in acidic, alkaline, oxidative and thermal conditions. Further LC MS-MS analysis will help to deduce the structures of the degradants which can help to establish the possible degradation pathway of this drug. So this method can be economically very useful in both research and industrial aspect.

INTRODUCTION: Angiotensin antagonists are the first major innovation in essential hypertension management as a first-line treatment. Angiotensin II receptor antagonists have been developed to specifically and selectively block the AT1 receptor of the rennin angiotensin system by displacing angiotensin II from it. Losartan potassium, Telmisartan and Irbesartan are highly selective, non-peptide angiotensin-II receptor antagonists (ARA-II).
Irbesartan is a synthetic, nonpeptide antagonist of angiotensin-II with chemical name 2-butyl-3-({4-[2- (2H-1, 2, 3, 4-tetrazol-5-yl) phenyl] phenyl} methyl)-1, 3 - diazaspiro[4.4] non –1–en -4 - one. Irbesartan is used mainly for the treatment of hypertension. Irbesartan pronounced is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist1-7. IAPUC name of Irbesartan is 2-butyl-3-({4-[2-(2H-1, 2, 3, 4 -tetrazol-5-yl) phenyl] phenyl} methyl) - 1, 3 -diazaspironon-1-en-4-one and molecular formula C25H28N6O 8-13. Literature survey revealed that numerous methods have been reported for estimation of Irbesartan in pharmaceutical formulations has been reported.
Present study involves development of RP-HPLC method using simple mobile phase which is sensitive and rapid for quantification of Irbesartan in bulk and tablet dosage forms as well as subsequent validation of developed method according to ICH guide lines.
FIG. 1: CHEMICAL STRUCTURE OF IRBESARTAN
MATERIALS AND METHODS:
RP-HPLC Analysis of Irbesartan by Using Telmisartan as I.S:
Chemicals: The gift samples of Irbesartan and Telmisartan (pure drug) were procured from Glenmark Pharmaceutical Company, Mumbai. The required solvents like HPLC grade methanol, water were purchased from Sigma Aldrich Pvt. Ltd. HPLC grade water was prepared using Millipore System (Millipore, Molesheim France, Model Elix-10). All other reagents were of AR grade.
Instrument: HPLC was performed on Shimadzu HPLC with LC- 20AT pumps besides SPD- 20A UV-Visible detector. Shimadzu spincrom-CFR software was used along with Phenomenex ODS C-18(250×4.6 mm, packed with 5 micron) for the separation.
Selection of Mobile phase: Irbesartan and Telmisartan were injected to the column with different with different mobile phases of different ratios with different flow rates till sharp peaks, without any interference peaks containing spectra were obtained. Different mobile phases were containing one or the combinations of two or three of the following: Methanol, Distilled water and Glacial acetic acid (all reagents were of HPLC grade).
Chromatographic Conditions: A reverse phase C-18 column was equilibrated with the mobile phase. Mobile phase flow rate was maintained at 1ml/min and eluents were monitored at 246 nm. The samples were injected using 20 μl fixed loop. All determinations were performed at ambient temperature for a run time of 6 min.
Preparation of Mobile phase: Mobile phase was prepared by mixing 900 ml of methanol along with 100 ml of water to get the proportion of 90:10 v/v and finally the pH was adjusted to 3 with glacial acetic acid. The mobile phase was sonicated for 10 minutes and filtered through 0.45μ membrane filter.
Preparation of Irbesartan Stock Solution (1000 μg/ml): About 50 mg of Irbesartan was weighed accurately and was taken in a 50 ml volumetric flask. It was dissolved in the mobile phase.
Preparation of Irbesartan Working Stock Solution (100μg/ml): From the above prepared stock solution of Irbesartan 5 ml was pipette out in to a 50 ml volumetric flask and the volume was made to up to the mark with mobile phase.
Preparation of Telmisartan Stock Solution (1000 μg/ml): About 50 mg of Telmisartan was weighed accurately and was taken in a 50 ml volumetric flask. It was dissolved in the mobile phase.
Preparation of Telmisartan Working Stock Solution (100μg/ml): From the above prepared stock solution of Telmisartan 5 ml was pipette out in to a 50 ml volumetric flask and the volume was made to up to the mark with mobile phase.
Calibration Curve: From Irbesartan standard solution stock solution (100μg/ml), working solution 1 ml, 2 ml, 3ml….to 9 ml were taken in nine separate 10 ml volumetric flask and 1 ml of Telmisartan working solution (100μg/ml) was added to each volumetric flask to produce solutions of concentration range 10μg/ml to 90μg/ml of Irbesartan keeping the concentration of Telmisartan constant at 10 μg/ml. Then each prepared solution was filtered and sonicated.
Validation: Validation of the method was performed using parameters like Accuracy, Precision, Linearity and Range, Robustness, Ruggedness, LOD, LOQ, Specificity and System suitability.
Forced degradation studies: The specificity of the method can be demonstrated through force degradation studies conducted on the sample using acid, alkaline, oxidative, thermal, photolytic and UV degradations. The sample was exposed to these conditions and the API peak was studied for the peak purity, which will indicate the method effectively separated from the degradation products.
Degradation in Neutral Condition: About 10 mg of pure drugs were accurately weighed and taken into three sets of three different 10 ml volumetric flasks and dissolved in minimum volume of methanol. Then the volumes were made up to the mark with water and refluxed in round bottom flasks for 1 hr, 2 hr and 6 hr. From these samples, different solutions were prepared and 20 μl of the sample solutions were injected into the HPLC system.
Degradation in Acidic Condition: About 10 mg of pure drugs were accurately weighed and taken into three sets of three different 10 ml volumetric flasks and dissolved in minimum volume of methanol. Then the volumes were made up to the mark with 0.1N, 0.5N and 01 N HCl and refluxed in round bottom flasks for 1 hr, 2 hr and 6 hr. From these samples, different solutions were prepared and 20 μl of the sample solutions were injected into the HPLC system.
Degradation in Basic Condition: About 10 mg of pure drugs were accurately weighed and taken into three sets of three different 10 ml volumetric flasks and dissolved in minimum volume of methanol. Then the volumes were made up to the mark with 0.1N, 0.5N and 01 N NaOH and refluxed in round bottom flasks for 1 hr, 2 hr and 6 hr. From these samples, different solutions were prepared and 20 μl of the sample solutions were injected into the HPLC system.

Then the volumes were made up to the mark with 1 % w/v H2O2, 3 % H2O2 and 6 % w/v H2O2 and refluxed in round bottom flasks for 1 hr, 2 hr and 6 hr. From these samples, different solutions were prepared and 20 μl of the sample solutions were injected into the HPLC system.

CONCLUSION: The developed RP-HPLC stability indicating assay method was found suitable for the analysis of drug in their pure form in presence of their respective degradants since the resolution between the drug with their corresponding degradants was better. The drug was prone to degrade more in acidic, alkaline, oxidative and thermal conditions. The method was found to be fast, simple, reliable, sensitive, economical, accurate and precise. The sensitivity and accuracy of the method were also ascertained by using internal standards. The results of stability studies of Irbesartan suggest that the drug is stable to photolytic and UV radiation degradations. Therefore, the proposed method can be used for routine analysis of estimation of Irbesartan in its bulk and dosage formulations.
