How Vanguard tests Brompheniramine maleate

Method for the $250 identity, purity and quantity test: HPLC-UV purity and assay, LC-MS identity, against a reference standard, with results in 3 to 5 business days.

The USP monograph covers identity by infrared spectroscopy and HPLC retention time, assay by HPLC, organic impurities by HPLC, residue on ignition, optical rotation, pH and loss on drying. Full testing to the USP Brompheniramine Maleate monograph is available and quoted.

What's reported

  • Purity, as percent of total peak area
  • Quantity, against the label claim
  • Identity, reported as match or no match against the reference standard
  • With monograph testing (quoted): the monograph’s tests against its limits

Questions about Brompheniramine maleate testing

Is the $250 test the same as USP monograph testing?

No. The $250 test covers identity, purity and quantity by HPLC with UV detection for purity and assay, and LC-MS for identity. Full testing to the USP Brompheniramine Maleate monograph is available and quoted.

Can the test tell brompheniramine from chlorpheniramine?

Yes. They differ only by bromine versus chlorine, so their masses and isotope patterns differ, and they separate by HPLC.

Does maleic acid show up in the chromatogram?

Yes. Maleate elutes early as its own peak and is not counted as an impurity of brompheniramine.

Is dexbrompheniramine tested the same way?

Dexbrompheniramine is the single active enantiomer. Standard HPLC gives the same result for both forms, so confirming the enantiomer needs a chiral method, which can be quoted separately.
