Abstract

Standardization is essential in the process of developing novel drugs, as well as updating approaches to the quality control of medicines in circulation. Establishing methods of quality control using reliable, accurate, and sensitive physicochemical methods is a crucial issue in standardization. This, in turn, requires the development of reliable reference materials (RMs). This article considers the development of methods for determining the structure of azithromycin, which is important for ensuring the purity of RMs and selecting an adequate technique of quantification according to the current regulatory documents, as well as the State Pharmacopoeia of the Russian Federation (XIV Edition).
