Gabapentin Capsules
DEFINITION
Gabapentin Capsules contain NLT 90.0% and NMT 110.0% of the labeled amount of gabapentin (C9H17NO2 ).
IDENTIFICATION
• A. Infrared Absorption 197K
Sample: Empty the contents of NLT 10 Capsules, and grind to a fine powder. Use a quantity of the powder, equivalent to 2 mg of gabapentin, and 200 mg of potassium bromide.
Acceptance criteria: Meet the requirements
• B. The retention time of the major peak of the Sample solution corresponds to that of the Standard solution, as obtained in the Assay.
ASSAY
• Procedure
Diluent: 1.2 g/L of monobasic potassium phosphate in water. Adjust with 5 N potassium hydroxide to a pH of 6.9.
Mobile phase : Dissolve 1.2 g of monobasic potassium phosphate in 940 mL water. Adjust with 5 N potassium hydroxide to a pH of 6.9. Add 60 mL of acetonitrile and stir.
Standard solution: 4.0 mg/mL of USP Gabapentin RS in Diluent
Sample solution: Nominally 4.0 mg/mL of gabapentin, from the contents of NLT 20 Capsules, equivalent to 100 mg of gabapentin, in Diluent. Sonication for about 60 s may be necessary to dissolve the contents.
Chromatographic system
(See Chromatography 621 , System Suitability.)
Mode: LC
Detector: UV 210 nm
Column: 4.6-mm × 25-cm; 5-µm packing L7
Flow rate: 1.2 mL/min
Injection volume: 50 µL
System suitability
Sample: Standard solution
Suitability requirements
Column efficiency: NLT 7000 theoretical plates
Tailing factor: NMT 2.0
Relative standard deviation: NMT 2.0%
Analysis
Samples: Standard solution and Sample solution
Calculate the percentage of the labeled amount of gabapentin (C9H17NO2 ) in the portion of Capsules taken:
Result = ( r U / r S ) × ( C S / C U ) × 100
r U = = peak response from the Sample solution
r S = = peak response from the Standard solution
C S = = concentration of USP Gabapentin RS in the Standard solution (mg/mL)
C U = = nominal concentration of gabapentin in the Sample solution (mg/mL)
Acceptance criteria: 90.0%–110.0%
PERFORMANCE TESTS
• Dissolution 711
Medium: 0.06 N hydrochloric acid (prepared by adding 51 mL of hydrochloric acid to 10 L of water); 900 mL
Apparatus 2: 50 rpm
Time: 20 min
Sample solution: Filter a portion of the solution under test using a suitable filter of 0.45-µm pore size.
Mobile phase: Prepare as directed in the Assay.
Standard solution: 0.0011L mg/mL of USP Gabapentin RS in the Medium, where L is the label claim in mg/Capsule

Analysis
Samples: Standard solution and Sample solution
Calculate the percentage of the labeled amount of gabapentin (C9H17NO2 ) dissolved:
Result = ( r U / r S ) × C S × V × (1/L) × 100
r U = = peak response from the Sample solution
r S = = peak response from the Standard solution
C S = = concentration of the Standard solution (mg/mL)
V = = volume of the Medium in the dissolution vessel, 900 mL
L = = label claim (mg/Capsule)
Tolerances: NLT 80% (Q) of the labeled amount of gabapentin (C9H17NO2 ) is dissolved.
