It is administered by a dry-powder inhaler.<\/p>\n<p>The inhalation powder complies with the requirements stated under Preparations for Inhalation and with the following requirements.<\/p>\n<h2>PRODUCTION<\/h2>\n<p>The size of aerosol particles to be inhaled is controlled so that a consistent portion is deposited in the lungs. The fine-particle characteristics of preparations for inhalation are determined using the method described in Appendix XII C7. Preparations for inhalation: Aerodynamic Assessment of Fine Particles. The test and limits should be agreed with the competent authority.<\/p>\n<p>The water content is controlled to ensure the performance of the product as justified and authorised by the competent authority.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Content of beclometasone dipropionate, C<sub>28<\/sub>H<sub>37<\/sub>ClO<sub>7<\/sub><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>80.0 to 120.0% of the stated amount.<\/p>\n<h2>IDENTIFICATION<\/h2>\n<p>A. In the Assay, the principal peak in the chromatogram obtained with solution (1) has the same retention time as the principal peak in the chromatogram obtained with solution (2).<\/p>\n<p>B. For products containing lactose; disperse 0.25 g of the inhalation powder in 5 mL of water. Add 5 mL of 6M ammonia and heat in a water-bath at 80\u00b0 for 10 minutes. An orange-red colour is produced.<\/p>\n<h2>TESTS<\/h2>\n<h3>Uniformity of delivered dose<\/h3>\n<p>Complies with the requirements stated under Inhalation Powders using the following method of analysis. Carry out the method for liquid chromatography, Appendix III D, using the following solutions.<\/p>\n<p>(1) Collect single doses of the preparation being examined using the procedure described under Inhalation Powders, Uniformity of delivered dose and dissolve the collected dose in sufficient of a mixture of 45 volumes of water and 55 volumes of acetonitrile to produce a solution containing the equivalent of 0.00005% w\/v of beclometasone dipropionate.<\/p>\n<p>(2) Dilute 10 mL of a solution containing 0.0005% w\/v of beclometasone dipropionate BPCRS in methanol to 100 mL with a mixture of 45 volumes of water and 55 volumes of acetonitrile.<\/p>\n<h4>CHROMATOGRAPHIC CONDITIONS<\/h4>\n<p>(a) Use a stainless steel column (25 cm \u00d7 4.6 mm) packed with base-deactivated end-capped octylsilyl silica gel for chromatography (5 \u03bcm) (Lichrospher 60 RP-select B is suitable).<\/p>\n<p>(b) Use isocratic elution and the mobile phase described below.<\/p>\n<p>(c) Use a flow rate of 1.3 mL per minute.<\/p>\n<p>(d) Use an ambient column temperature.<\/p>\n<p>(e) Use a detection wavelength of 240 nm.<\/p>\n<p>(f) Inject 100 \u03bcL of each solution.<\/p>\n<h4>MOBILE PHASE<\/h4>\n<p>25 volumes of water and 75 volumes of methanol.<\/p>\n<h4>DETERMINATION OF CONTENT<\/h4>\n<p>Calculate the amount of beclometasone dipropionate, C<sub>28<\/sub>H<sub>37<\/sub>ClO<sub>7<\/sub>, per delivered dose using the declared content of C<sub>28<\/sub>H<sub>37<\/sub>ClO<sub>7 <\/sub>in beclometasone dipropionate BPCRS.
