Pyridostigmine Impurities and Synthesis

Pyridostigmine impurities can arise during the drug’s manufacture, storage, or use due to causes such as adverse effects and degradation. Analytical procedures such as HPLC evaluate and quantify these impurities. Control strategies include improving synthesis conditions, and purification techniques may aid in reducing these impurity levels in the drug.

Daicel Pharma provides a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) for Pyridostigmine impurity standards which include Pyridostigmine impurity impurities which include Pyridostigmine EP impurity B, 3-((ethyl(methyl)carbamoyl)oxy)-1-methylpyridin-1-ium bromide, 1-Methyl-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyridin-3-yl dimethyl carbamate and 3-(((hydroxymethyl)(methyl)carbamoyl)oxy)-1-methylpyridin-1-ium bromide. At Daicel Pharma, we operate a cGMP-certified analytical laboratory that provides the CoA, which includes thorough characterization data including 1H NMR, 13C NMR, IR, MASS, and HPLC purity1 ,2. On request, we give more characterization details, such as 13C-DEPT, can be given. Daicel Pharma’s expert team prepares Pyridostigmine impurities.
