For type 2 diabetes treatment, combinations of drugs from the thiazolidinedione and sulfonylurea groups are now available in the same tablet or capsule. Therefore, a stability-indicating and validated HPLC method was developed for simultaneous determination of pioglitazone, rosiglitazone, and glipizide in combined dosage forms. The examined drugs were subjected to different conditions such as acid and base, temperature, and UV light, and degradation of pioglitazone and glipizide was observed under thermal and acidic stress. However, selectivity of the presented method for pioglitazone, rosiglitazone, and glipizide assay against their degradation products was confirmed. It was also demonstrated to be robust, resisting small deliberate changes in pH of the buffer, flow rate, and percentage of acetonitrile in the mobile phase. The presented method utilizes a LiChrospher RP18 column (125 x 4.0 mm), acetonitrile in phosphate buffer at pH 4.3 (40 + 60, v/v) as the mobile phase, and UV detection at 225 nm for pioglitazonel glipizide or 245 nm for rosiglitazone/glipizide. The method was validated with respect to linearity, precision, and accuracy. Finally, the elaborated procedure was applied for the QC of pioglitazone/glipizide and rosiglitazone/glipizide mixtures.

A high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was proposed to simultaneously determine four common nonprotein nitrogen substances, including creatine (Cr), creatinine (Cn), uric acid (Ua) and pseudouridine (Pu) in urine. After proteins being removed by acetone precipitation method, freeze drying and redissolving, the urine samples were analyzed by HPLC. Chromatographic separation was performed on a Waters RP18 Column (150 mm x 4.60 mm, 3.5 microm) in gradient elution mode using 10.0 mmol/L KH2PO4 solution (pH 4.78) and acetonitrile as mobile phases at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. The samples were detected at 220 nm. Rapid separation was achieved within 7 min. Under the optimized conditions, good linearities of four common nonprotein nitrogen substances were obtained in the range of 0.1-250 mg/L. The detection limits were 9.31 (Cr), 26.19 (Cn), 4.70 (Ua), an 6.30 (Pu) microg/L and the recoveries were in the range of 81%-111% with the relative standar deviations of 0.23%-2.78% (n = 3). The results demonstrate that this method is simple, rapid and accurate with good reproducibility, and can provide early diagnosis and preliminary judgment for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with renal damage.
