Abstract

A voltammetric study of the oxidation of loperamide has been carried out at the glassy carbon electrode. This compound exhibited a single peak in Britton-Robinson buffer solutions of pH 5.0–11.0, with a maximum current at pH 8.0. The electrochemical oxidation of loperamide is identified as an irreversible, diffusion-controlled process. Based on this study, a simple, rapid and sensitive voltammetric method was applied, without any interference from the excipients, to the determination of the drug in a capsule dosage form.
