The invention provides a method for detecting a cyclosporine pharmaceutical preparation, which comprises the following steps of: 1) treating the cyclosporine pharmaceutical preparation with a
diluent to obtain a cyclosporine pharmaceutical preparation solution to be detected; and (2) detecting the cyclosporine pharmaceutical preparation solution to be detected obtained in the step (1) through using a gel
chromatography exclusion method, wherein a
chromatographic column adopted in the gel
chromatography exclusion method detection is formed by connecting at least two water-soluble GPC chromatographic columns in series. The method can effectively separate povidone, OP-40 and polyoxyethylene hydrogenated
castor oil, has the outstanding advantages of being good in stability, easy and convenient to operate, rapid, high in efficiency, good in sensitivity and the like, can achieve effective separation when the concentration of povidone, OP-40 and polyoxyethylene hydrogenated
castor oil is low, and can provide a basis for further research on specific properties of any two or three of povidone, OP-40 and polyoxyethylene hydrogenated
castor oil, such as cyclosporin eye drops.
