- Štátny ústav pre kontrolu liečiv, Bratislava
Thin-layer chromatography on silica gel (Merck) was employed to examine potential impuritiespresent in loratadine-containing tablets. A method usable for testing of impurities was elaborated,which suitably supplements the determination of loratadine content using the spectrophotometricmethod in the UV region. The method was validated for selected pharmaceuticals.
