Abstract
Ambroxol (AMB) is a member of the expectorant class, widely used as a secreolytic agent in patients to break up secretions. AMB is rapidly and effectively distributed from blood to tissue. The lungs have the highest concentration of AMB; accumulation of AMB in human lung tissue was detected at concentrations 15- to 20-fold greater than those reported in the circulation. Because of its wide range of actions and therapeutic applications may be worth looking into, particularly for respiratory symptoms, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, influenza, and rhinovirus infections. Though several analytical methodologies have been established and confirmed for the AMB analysis in matrices of pharmaceutical and biological origins, novel sustainable, and economical methods are still to be choice of protocol to increase its sensitivity, reliability, and repeatability. Therefore, the present review offers an overview of critical analytical aspects regarding the HPLC, LC-MS/MS, HPTLC, capillary electrophoresis, spectrophotometry, and electrochemical methods for quantifying AMB in pharmaceutical and biological samples. Furthermore, this review will thoroughly discuss the physicochemical properties, stability, extraction conditions, instrumentation, and operational parameters of the targeted analyte. As a result, for the first time, this review complies with vital background information and an up-to-date interpretation of research undertaken by anticipated methodologies examined and implemented for the pharmaceutical analysis AMB.

Zhou H, Zhang M, Sun L, Li W, Liu Q. A simple LC-MS/MS method for simultaneous determination of cilostazol and ambroxol in Sprague-Dawley rat plasma and its application to drug-drug pharmacokinetic interaction study following oral delivery in rats. J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci 2021; 1179:122766. [PMID: 34247102 DOI: 10.1016/j.jchromb.2021.122766] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2020] [Revised: 05/09/2021] [Accepted: 05/11/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
Recently, a combination of cilostazol and ambroxol has been used in the clinical treatment of stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP). However, the pharmacokinetic drug-drug interaction (DDI) of cilostazol and ambroxol has not been reported. In this paper, a rapid, reproducible and sensitive liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for simultaneous determination of cilostazol and ambroxol in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat plasma was established and validated for the first time. Domperidone was used as the internal standard (IS) and one-step liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) method was used to extract analytes and IS from plasma samples with methyl tert-butyl ether as extractant. A rapid chromatographic separation within 4.8 min was carried on an Ultimate ® XB-C18 column with a mobile phase consisting of methanol-acetonitrile-formic acid (0.1%) aqueous solution (90:2:8, v/v/v) at a flow rate of 500 μL/min. The quantitative detection of the analytes and IS were performed on a positive electrospray ionization mode (ESI), and scanned by multi-reaction monitoring (MRM) with the ion transitions m/z 370.3 → m/z 288.2 for cilostazol, m/z 378.8 → m/z 263.8 for ambroxol and m/z 426.2 → m/z 175.1 for domperidone (IS), respectively. It had good linearity in the range of 5.0-1000 ng/mL for cilostazol and 1.0-200 ng/mL for ambroxol in rat plasma. The methodology was fully validated with selectivity, linearity, lower limits of quantification, precision, accuracy, extraction recovery, matrix effect, stability and carry-over effect. The validated data have met the determination requirements of biological samples in FDA guideline. The method was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetics and DDI study of cilostazol and ambroxol in male SD rats. The current study found that the interaction between cilostazol and ambroxol may be caused by CYP3A4 and the pharmacological properties of cilostazol, which may be helpful for therapeutic drug monitoring, clinical dose reference and provide a valuable tool for drug-drug interactions.

Abstract
Background Ambroxol (ABX) has been suggested as an augmentative pharmacological agent for neuronopathic Gaucher disease (nGD). This study assessed the long-term safety and efficacy of combined therapy with high-dose ABX and enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) in nGD. Methods ABX+ERT therapy was administered for 4.5 years in four patients with nGD. ABX was initiated at a dose of 1.5 mg/kg/day, and the dose was escalated up to 27 mg/kg/day. The target plasma level was 10 µmol/L or less. The changes in glucocerebrosidase activity, biochemical, safety and neurocognitive findings were assessed. Results Enhanced residual GCcase activity was observed in all patients, as evidenced in both in vitro and in vivo studies. During the first 2 years of study with ABX (up to 21 mg/kg/day), mean seizure frequencies and neurocognitive function worsened. After ABX dosage was increased up to 27 mg/kg/day of ABX, its trough plasma concentration was 3.2–8.8 µmol/L. Drug-to-drug interaction, especially with antiepileptic drug significantly affected the pharmacokinetic parameters of ABX. Importantly, at 27 mg/kg/day of ABX, the seizure frequencies markedly decreased from the baseline, and the neurocognitive function was improved. In addition, Lyso-Gb1, a biomarker for the severity and progression of GD, was normalised in all patients. High-dose ABX was well-tolerated with no severe adverse events. Conclusions Long-term treatment with high-dose ABX+ERT was safe and might help to arrest the progression of the neurological manifestations in GD.

Abstract
Sargassum fusiforme (hijiki) is the well-known edible algae, whose polysaccharides have been proved to possess interesting bioactivities like antitumor, antioxidant, antimicrobial and immunomodulatory activities. A facile and sensitive method based on high-performance liquid chromatography method of pre-column derivatization with 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone (PMP) coupled with electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry (HPLC/ESI-MS) has been established for the analysis of the monosaccharide composition of polysaccharides in S. fusiforme. Monosaccharides have been converted into PMP-labelled derivatives with aqueous ammonia as a catalyst at 70 °C for 30 min. The optimisation of the pre-column derivatization process was studied. The LODs of the monosaccharides were in the range from 0.01 to 0.02 nmol. PMP-labelled mixture of monosaccharides has been well separated by a reverse-phase HPLC and detected by on-line ESI-MS method under optimised conditions. The mobile phase of elution system was chosen as acetonitrile (solvent A) and 20mM aqueous ammonium acetate (solvent B) (pH 3.0) with Zorbax XDB-C18 column at 30 °C for the separation of the monosaccharide derivatives. Identification of the monosaccharides composition was carried out by analysis with mass spectral behaviour and chromatography characteristics of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5-pyrazolone (PMP) labelled monosaccharides. All PMP-labelled derivatives display high chemical stabilities, whose regular MS fragmentation is specific for reducing labelled sugars. The result showed that the S. fusiforme polysaccharide consisted of mannose, glucose, galactose, xylose, fucose and glucuronic acid or galacturonic acid, or both uronic acids.

Abstract
Aim: To develop a simple, sensitive, rapid, and economic high performance thin layer chromatographic method for determination of cefpodoxime proxetil (CEFPO) and ambroxol hydrochloride (AMBRO) in human plasma by liquid–liquid extraction using paracetamol as an internal standard. Materials and Methods: The plasma sample was extracted by a mixture of methanol and acetonitrile. A concentration range from 500 to 3500 ng/spot for CEFPO and 1000 to 7000 ng/spot for AMBRO were used for the calibration curve, respectively. This recovery was found to be 74.40 and 94.50 for CEFPO and AMBRO, respectively. The mobile phase used consists of chloroform: methanol (9:1v/v). Densitometric analysis was carried out at a wavelength of 240 nm. Results: The Rf values for CEFPO, AMBRO, and paracetamol were found to be 0.69 ± 0.005, 0.49 ± 0.0057, and 0.31 ± 0.0054, respectively. The stability of CEFPO and AMBRO in plasma was confirmed during three freeze–thaw cycles (-20°C), on bench during 24 h and post preparative during 48 h. Conclusion: The proposed method was validated statistically and by performing a recovery study for determination of CEFPO and AMBRO in human plasma.

Abstract
A stability indicating reversed phase ultra performance liquid chromatography (RP-UPLC) method was developed for simultaneous determination of ambroxol hydrochloride (AMB), cetirizine hydrochloride (CTZ), methylparaben (MP) and propylparaben (PP) in liquid pharmaceutical formulation. The desired chromatographic separation was achieved on an Agilent Eclipse plus C18, 1.8 μm (50 × 2.1 mm) column using gradient elution at 237 nm detector wavelength. The optimized mobile phase consists of a mixture of 0.01 M phosphate buffer and 0.1 % triethylamine as a solvent-A and acetonitrile as a solvent-B. The developed method separates AMB, CTZ, MP and PP in presence of twelve known impurities/degradation products and one unknown degradation product within 3.5 min. Stability indicating capability was established by forced degradation experiments and seperation of known and unknown degradation products. The lower limit of quantification was established for AMB, CTZ, MP and PP. The developed RP-UPLC method was validated according to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines. This validated method is applied for simultaneous estimation of AMB, CTZ, MP and PP in commercially available syrup samples. Further, the method can be extended for estimation of AMB, CTZ, MP, PP and levo-cetirizine (LCTZ) in various commercially available dosage forms.

Abstract
Rapid, precise, accurate, specific and sensitive reverse phase liquid chromatographic and absorbance ratio spectrophotometric methods have been developed for the simultaneous analysis of ambroxol hydrochloride and cetirizine hydrochloride in their tablet formulation. The chromatographic methods were standardized using a HIQ SIL-C(18) column (250×4.6 mm i.d., 10 μm particle size) with UV detection at 229 nm and mobile phase consisting of methanol-acetonitrile-water (40:40:20, v/v/v). Ambroxol hydrochloride and cetirizine hydrochloride have absorbance maxima at 243 nm and 229 nm, respectively. The isoabsorptive wavelength for both the drugs was 236 nm. For absorbance ratio method developed, wavelengths selected were 243 nm and 236 nm. The proposed methods were successfully applied to the determination of ambroxol hydrochloride and cetirizine hydrochloride in tablets, with high percentage of recovery, good accuracy and acceptable precision. Different analytical performance parameters such as linearity, precision, accuracy, limit of detection, limit of quantitation and robustness were determined according to International Conference on Harmonization ICH Q2B guidelines. Results of analysis of the developed method were compared by performing ANOVA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although roxithromycin and ambroxol HCl were often administered concomitantly for the treatment of respiratory infections, the pharmacokinetic interactions between them have not been reported. We investigated the interactions between these drugs in health male Chinese volunteers by LC-MS/MS in human plasma. METHODS The pharmacokinetics were studied in 12 healthy male Chinese volunteers after an overnight fast by a single oral dose, 4-way crossover design with a period of 7-day washout. Each subjects was randomized to receive a single oral dose of 1 compound roxithromycin (150 mg) and ambroxol HCl (30 mg) dispersible tablet (test formulation, treatment A), one 150 mg roxithromycin dispersible tablet together with one 30 mg ambroxol HCl tablet (combined reference formulations, treatment B), one 150 mg roxithromycin dispersible tablet (reference formulation I, treatment C), or one 30 mg ambroxol HCl tablet (reference formulation II, treatment D) with 250 ml of water. Venous blood was collected at pre-dose (0 h) and 0.25, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72 h after dosing. The plasma concentrations of roxithromycin and ambroxol HCl were simultaneously determined by using a validated internal standard LC-MS/MS method. RESULTS No significant differences were observed for the major pharmacokinetic parameters such as C(max), T(max), t(1/2) and AUC of both roxithromycin and ambroxol HCl between different treatments. CONCLUSION The pharmacokinetics of both roxithromycin and ambroxol HCl are not affected by their concomitant oral administration. Therefore, there are no obvious pharmacokinetic interactions between roxithromycin and ambroxol HCl after oral administration. Roxithromycin and ambroxol HCl dispersible tablets were bioequivalent with reference to the roxithromycin dispersible tablets and ambroxol HCl tablets in combination usage.

Abstract
A rapid, sensitive and specific method to determination of ambroxol in human plasma using high performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/ESI) was described. Ambroxol and the internal standard (I.S.), fentanyl, were extracted from plasma by N-hexane-diethyl ether (1:1, v/v) after alkalinized with ammonia water. A centrifuged upper layer was then evaporated and reconstituted with 100 microl mobile phase. Chromatographic separation was performed on a BDS HYPERSIL C18 column (250 mmx4.6 mm, 5.0 microm, Thermo electron corporation, USA) with the mobile phase consisting of 30 mM ammonium acetate (0.4% formic acid)-acetonitrile (64:36, v/v) at a flow-rate of 1.2 mL min(-1). The total run time was 5.8 min for each sample. Detection and quantitation was performed by the mass spectrometer using selected ion monitoring at m/z 261.9, 263.8 and 265.9 for ambroxol and m/z 337.3 for fentanyl. The calibration curve was linear within the concentration range of 1.0-100.0 ng mL(-1) (r=0.9996). The limit of quantification was 1.0 ng mL(-1). The extraction recovery was above 83.3%. The methodology recovery was higher than 93.8%. The intra- and inter-day precisions were less than 6.0%. The method is accurate, sensitive and simple for the study of the pharmacokinetics and metabolism of ambroxol.

Abstract
The porous monolithic columns show high performance at relatively low pressure. The coupling of short monoliths with sequential injection technique (SIA) results in a new approach to implementation of separation step to non-separation low-pressure method. In this contribution, a new separation method for simultaneous determination of ambroxol, methylparaben and benzoic acid was developed based on a novel reversed-phase sequential injection chromatography (SIC) technique with UV detection. A Chromolith SpeedROD RP-18e, 50-4.6 mm column with 10 mm precolumn and a FIAlab 3000 system with a six-port selection valve and 5 ml syringe were used for sequential injection chromatographic separations in our study. The mobile phase used was acetonitrile-tetrahydrofuran-0.05M acetic acid (10:10:90, v/v/v), pH 3.75 adjusted with triethylamine, flow rate 0.48 mlmin(-1), UV-detection was at 245 nm. The analysis time was <11 min. A new SIC method was validated and compared with HPLC. The method was found to be useful for the routine analysis of the active compounds ambroxol and preservatives (methylparaben or benzoic acid) in various pharmaceutical syrups and drops.

Abstract
A rapid and accurate liquid chromatographic method is described for the simultaneous determination of roxithromycin and ambroxol hydrochloride in a new tablet formulation. Chromatographic separation of the two drugs was achieved on a Diamonsil C(18) column (200 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 microm). The mobile phase consisting of a mixture of acetonitrile, methanol and 0.5% ammonium acetate (39:11:50 (v/v), pH 5.5) was delivered at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min. Detection was performed at 220 nm. Linearity, accuracy and precision were found to be acceptable over the concentration range of 201.2-2012.0 microg/ml for roxithromycin and 42.7-427.0 microg/ml for ambroxol hydrochloride, respectively. Separation was complete in less than 10 min. The proposed method can be used for the quality control of formulation products.
