Albuterol (or albuterol sulfate) is used for the treatment of asthma. It's generally taken as either tablets or from an inhaler. Usp sets standards for albuterol tablets but not inhalers.

used for the treatment of asthma. It's generally taken as either tablets or from an inhaler. WCAS provides testing for albuterol according to USP monographs as well as in inhalers.
There are at least two methods
for determining the dose of Albuterol from an inhaler, an HPLC method based upon the USP monograph for the API or LC-MS. USP sets standards for albuterol tablets but not inhalers. The method for assaying tablets is based on reverse phase HPLC 4 with an ion pair reagent with detection using UV absorbance at 276 nm. For legal cases, we prefer the following method using LC-MS because it provides definitive identification of the albuterol active ingredient as well as the dose assay.
resolves it well from the ipratropium
bromide also present in the inhaler. Identity is then confirmed by both retention time and We have developed a method for mass spectral match. Quantitation is confirmation of Albuterol in performed using external standards to Inhalation Solutions. This confirm the dosage level, although not to the method uses LC-MS with degree of precision required by USP testing electrospray ionization. With a for the API. relatively high capillary voltage, some fragmentation is induced to A representative LC-MS chromatogram and give a representative spectrum. mass spectrum are shown below. The chromatographic conditions use a mixed mode LC column. 4 This gives good peak shape for the albuterol and
Example Report:
First, the samples are prepared Micrograms/Actuation
by removing the canisters from as Albuterol the mouthpiece and dispensing Sample as Albuterol Sulfate five actuations from each sample into water containing Control 100 120 salicyl alcohol as an internal Sample 115 138 standard. An aliquot of the Sample water is then evaporated to Duplicate 103 124 dryness and the TMS Detection derivatizing agent is added to Limit 4 5 the residue. The solutions are then analyzed by GCMS. Quantitation is performed using Weight Weight grams actuations before after lost per the internal standard method against a five-point initial Sample taken (g) (g) actuation calibration. Additionally, one Control 5 28.2366 27.8609 0.0751 sample is prepared in duplicate. Sample 10 28.4295 27.5794 0.0850 Results are given as free albuterol and albuterol sulfate per actuation from the valve.
