Studies on voriconazole sulfobutyl ether beta cyclodextrin eye drops and eye irritation test
Objective To prepare 1% voriconazole eye drops, establish its method of quality control and inspect the eye irritation. Methods Voriconazole was solubilizing by SBE-β-CD in order to prepare voriconazole eye drops. The content of voriconazole was determined by HPLC, observed stability and irritation to rabbits'eyes of voriconazole eye drops. Results The eye-drops was colorless and transparent liquid, specification of 5 mL: 50 mg, content of voriconazole was 1%. Its identification and test conformed to the related standards stated in Ch.P(2015). There was a good linear relationshop with the concentration range of 20~800μg/mL(r=0.9999, n=6)for voriconazole, and its average recovery was 100.13%(RSD=0.78%, n=9). Both intra- and inter-day precision RSD were less than 2%(n=5). The eye drops had no irritation to rabbits'eyes, accelerated stability test is good. Conclusion The preparation process of voriconazole eye drops is simple, its quality control method is reliable.
