Descripción
Analysis Note
Atorvastatin calcium also known as HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors in a class of lipid-lowering medications that reduces levels of “bad” cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein, or LDL) and triglycerides in the blood and raise “good” cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein, or HDL). The enantiomer of atorvastatin (related compound E) could qualitatively and quantitatively differ in their activities, in pharmacokinetic behavior or pharmacodynamics. The application exhibits baseline resolution under 9 minutes of a racemic mixture of atorvastatin calcium and related compound E on a 5.0 μm Kromasil 5-AmyCoat Chiral.
