General description

Ondansetron Hydrochloride acts as a 5HT3 (serotonin) antagonist and is a powerful antiemetic drug. It is widely used for the prevention and treatment of nausea and vomiting related to post-operative states, cancer chemotherapy and radiotherapy, and chronic medical illness. It has been found to exhibit inconsistent bioavailability resulting from its poor aqueous solubility and high first-pass hepatic metabolism.
Pharmaceutical secondary standards for application in quality control, provide pharma laboratories and manufacturers with a convenient and cost-effective alternative to the preparation of in-house working standards.

Application

Ondansetron Hydrochloride may be used as a pharmaceutical reference standard for the determination of the analyte in pharmaceutical formulations and combined dosage forms by spectrophotometric, electrochemical, and chromatographic techniques.
These Secondary Standards are qualified as Certified Reference Materials. These are suitable for use in several analytical applications including but not limited to pharma release testing, pharma method development for qualitative and quantitative analyses, food and beverage quality control testing, and other calibration requirements.

Biochem/physiol Actions

5-HT3 serotonin receptor antagonist

Analysis Note

These secondary standards offer multi-traceability to the USP, EP (PhEur) and BP primary standards, where they are available.

Other Notes

This Certified Reference Material (CRM) is produced and certified in accordance with ISO 17034 and ISO/IEC 17025. All information regarding the use of this CRM can be found on the certificate of analysis.
Values of analytes vary lot to lot.
