The primary objective of this study was to establish a simple, accurate, precise, and cost-effective analytical method suitable for routine quality control and stability analysis. Chromatographic separation was achieved using a Discovery C18 column (250 × 4.6 mm, 5 µm) with a mobile phase consisting of phosphate buffer and acetonitrile in the ratio of 60:40 v/v, pH was adjusted to 3 with 0.1% Ortho phosphoric acid, at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. Detection was performed at a wavelength of 230 nm, where both drugs exhibited significant absorbance. Under the optimized chromatographic conditions, sharp and symmetrical peaks were obtained with retention times of 2.365 minutes for Valproate and 3.423 minutes for Lamotrigine, showing excellent resolution and separation. The developed method was validated as per the International Council for Harmonisation (ICH Q2 R1) guidelines. The method demonstrated good linearity over the concentration range of 25–150 µg/mL for Valproate and 12.5–75 µg/mL for Lamotrigine, with correlation coefficients (R²) greater than 0.999. Accuracy studies showed mean recoveries between 98% and 102%, while precision results confirmed reproducibility with %RSD values below 2. The method also proved to be robust and specific, showing no interference from excipients or degradation products. Hence, the developed RP-HPLC method is rapid, reliable, and suitable for routine simultaneous analysis of Valproate and Lamotrigine in combined dosage forms.</p> 2026-08-15T00:00:00-04:00 Copyright (c) 2026 https://uniquepubinternational.com/journals/index.php/jcpbs/article/view/249 Formulation and Evaluation of Herbal Anti-Lice Shampoo Fromannona Reticulata (Family: Annonaceae) Leaf Extract 2026-11-10T10:38:54-05:00 Badmanaban R [email protected] Elizabeth A P [email protected] Abin G J [email protected] Afsana F [email protected] Ajil J [email protected] Anjana R [email protected] Arun P S [email protected] <p>Head lice infestation is a common parasitic condition that can cause itching, scalp irritation, and discomfort. The increasing concerns associated with synthetic pediculicides have encouraged the development of safer herbal alternatives. This study aimed to formulate and evaluate an herbal anti-lice shampoo containing ethanolic leaf extract of <em>Annona reticulata</em> (family <em>Annonaceae</em>). The leaves were extracted by maceration using ethanol and subjected to qualitative phytochemical screening. The extract contained several phytoconstituent groups, including alkaloids, flavonoids, tannins, saponins, glycosides, terpenoids, steroids, phenolic compounds, and carbohydrates. The herbal shampoo was prepared using suitable surfactants and excipients and evaluated for various physicochemical parameters. The formulation exhibited a pH of 5, density and specific gravity of 1.025 g/mL, satisfactory viscosity and foaming properties, and acceptable physical characteristics. Skin irritancy testing showed no visible redness or swelling during the observation period. In the anti-lice evaluation, the formulation demonstrated pediculicidal activity, with complete mortality of lice observed within 3 minutes, showing faster activity than the marketed herbal shampoo used for comparison. The findings indicate that <em>Annona reticulata</em> leaf extract has potential for incorporation into herbal anti-lice shampoo formulations.</p> 2026-11-09T00:00:00-05:00 Copyright (c) 2026
