A concise review on analytical profile of Vigabatrin
View through CrossRef
Vigabatrin (VGB) is a drug of Anticonvulsant class. It works by decreasing abnormal electrical activity in the brain. It inhibits the GABA-degrading enzyme i.e. GABA transaminase, it increases the GABA concentrations in the brain. Vigabatrin is used for the treatment of refractory complex partial seizures in adults and also used for children 2 years of age and older and infantile spasms in children. Vigabatrin was approved for anticonvulsant medication by USFDA on August 21, 2009. Therefore, in the present review article, we have enlisted different analytical method such as Ultraviolet (UV) visible spectroscopy, High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), Ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) and Gas Chromatography for both qualitative and quantitative analysis of VGB in pharmaceutical and biological. In the future, this review article will assist researchers regarding the development of a new analytical method for VGB.
