Description

[0001] This application claims priority to the prior application filed by the applicant with the State Intellectual Property Office on January 3, 2025, with patent application number 202510011115.9, entitled "A method and application for detecting related substances in glycopyrronium bromide neostigmine injection", the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0002] This invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical analysis technology, specifically relating to a method and application for detecting related substances in glycopyrronium bromide neostigmine injection. Background Technology

[0003] The chemical name of glycopyrronium bromide is: (RS)-[3-(SR)-hydroxy-1,1-dimethylpyrrolidinyl]-α-cyclopentylmandelate, and its chemical structural formula is as follows:

[0004]

[0005] Glycerone bromide is an atropine-like quaternary ammonium anticholinergic drug, a quaternary ammonium muscarinic receptor antagonist with strong inhibitory effects on gastric acid secretion and mild gastrointestinal antispasmodic effects. This drug can regulate gastrointestinal motility, reduce gastric acid secretion and free acid concentration, and inhibit excessive secretion from the trachea and bronchi. Early formulations were used to treat gastric and duodenal ulcers, chronic gastritis, and excessive gastric acid secretion; marketed dosage forms include tablets, injections, and oral solutions. In addition, this drug has a stronger anti-salivation effect than atropine, and its duration of action is longer. Later studies found that glycopyrronium bromide is a selective M receptor antagonist, with high selectivity for cholinergic M3 receptors, and 3-5 times more selective for M3 and M1 receptors than for M2 receptors. Novartis developed glycopyrronium bromide into an inhaled powder formulation, which was launched in 2012 for long-term relief of symptoms in adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Furthermore, because the quaternary ammonium group of this drug restricts its passage across lipid cell membranes such as the blood-brain barrier, adverse reactions related to the central nervous system occur very rarely. This drug is 5 to 6 times more potent than an equivalent amount of atropine; its anti-salivation effect is better than atropine, and its sedative effect is milder than scopolamine; its adverse reactions such as increased heart rate, blurred vision, and fever are milder than atropine; delayed mydriasis is more pronounced when atropine is administered systemically, but this drug causes only a slight change; when used in combination with neostigmine to correct competitive muscle relaxant overdose, this drug results in less tachycardia and better anti-salivation compared to atropine combined with neostigmine.

[0006] The chemical name of neostigmine methylsulfate is N,N,N-trimethyl-3-[(N,N-dimethylamino)formyloxy]anilinium monomethyl sulfate, and the chemical structural formula is as follows:

[0007]

[0008] Neostigmine methylsulfate is a commonly used reversible anticholinesterase drug, which is a parasympathetic stimulant. The drug can inhibit the activity of cholinesterase, interfere with the degradation of acetylcholine, and indirectly stimulate nicotinic and muscarinic receptors to control muscle contraction without crossing the blood-brain barrier. In addition, the drug can directly stimulate the nicotinic receptors (N2 receptors) on the motor endplate of skeletal muscle, and its action characteristics are weak on the glands, eyes, cardiovascular and bronchial smooth muscles, can promote gastric contraction and increase gastric acid secretion, and promote the peristalsis of small and large intestines, especially the colon, thereby preventing intestinal relaxation and promoting the downward movement of intestinal contents. The product has strong skeletal muscle excitatory effect, but weak central effect. Therefore, neostigmine methylsulfate is commonly used for severe and emergency myasthenia gravis, respiratory prolongation caused by arrow poison agent (tubocurarine), postoperative and postpartum intestinal paralysis inhibition, gastrointestinal dysfunction, postoperative and postpartum urinary difficulty. It can be used for the treatment of excessive poisoning of competitive muscle relaxants, paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. It is also used for the treatment of movement disorders after brain trauma, paralysis in the recovery period of tuberculous meningitis, poliomyelitis and encephalitis, optic atrophy and neuritis, and other diseases. It is also used for various relaxation paralysis, muscle and nerve disorders in internal medicine, gynecology and otolaryngology.

[0009] At present, there is no detection method for the related substances of glycopyrronium bromide and neostigmine injection in the pharmacopoeias of various countries. The detection method of related substances in the quality standards of neostigmine methylsulfate and glycopyrronium bromide in the pharmacopoeias of various countries is only applicable to single preparation, and cannot simultaneously consider the separation and detection of two active ingredients and related impurities. At present, there are few literatures reporting the detection method of related substances of the compound preparation.

[0010] In summary, there is still no effective detection method for the related substances of glycopyrronium bromide and neostigmine injection at present, which cannot effectively monitor the impurity situation of glycopyrronium bromide and neostigmine injection. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop an impurity detection method suitable for the product for the quality control of glycopyrronium bromide and neostigmine injection. SUMMARY
