Abstract

Background: Neurological diseases affect over one billion people globally, presenting a significant health burden, especially for vulnerable populations. The FLEGMEN-SIP capsule was developed as a treatment option for central nervous system disorders, containing glycyrrhizic acid as its primary active ingredient. This study aims to quantify the glycyrrhizic acid content in FLEGMEN-SIP capsules using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to ensure compliance with therapeutic standards. Methods: The study utilized HPLC to quantify glycyrrhizic acid in FLEGMEN-SIP capsules. The capsules contain a dry extract derived from Phlomis regelii, Leonurus turkestanicus, Mentha piperita, and Glycyrrhiza glabra, with glycyrrhizic acid comprising 1.39% of the dry extract. Samples were prepared by dissolving 0.050 g of the drug in the mobile phase and filtered using a 0.45 µm membrane filter. The HPLC system included a Zorbax column and UV detection at 254 nm. The analysis was repeated five times for accuracy. Results: The glycyrrhizic acid content in FLEGMEN-SIP capsules was determined to be 0.55%, surpassing the minimum regulatory requirement of 0.4%. The chromatographic method demonstrated high reproducibility and reliability, confirming the quality and therapeutic efficacy of the capsules. Conclusion: The study validated the use of HPLC as an effective method for quantifying glycyrrhizic acid in FLEGMEN-SIP capsules. The results confirm the capsules meet regulatory standards, ensuring their suitability for treating central nervous system disorders.
