Gene Information

General description

Phenylephrine, marketed as Neo-Synephrine®, is the most common over-the-counter (OTC) decongestant in the US. Over the last few years, it has been marketed as a substitute for pseudoephedrine with tighter US government regulation of pseudoephedrine from the Combat Methamphetamine Epidemic Act of 2005.

Application

  • Stability-Indicating Assay for Ibuprofen and Phenylephrine hydrochloride: A high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed for the eco-friendly and stability-indicating assay of a binary mixture containing phenylephrine hydrochloride, highlighting its role in pharmaceutical quality control and formulation research (Kelani et al., 2023).
  • Visual Attention and Adrenergic Manipulation: The differential effects of dopaminergic and noradrenergic manipulations, including the use of phenylephrine, on attention were studied using the theory of visual attention in rat models, providing insights into the neuropharmacological impacts of adrenergic receptor agonists (Hervig et al., 2023).
  • Chemometric Quality Assessment: Comparative UV-spectrophotometric analysis using predictive models for the quality assessment of phenylephrine HCl and paracetamol, which is crucial for ensuring the chiral purity and efficacy of pharmaceutical formulations (Farid et al., 2022).
