Abstract: Objective:To study the effect of pH on stability of brimonidine tartrate eye drops and to determine the optimal range of pH and storage conditions of it.Methods:HPLC methed was used for the determination of content and related substance of brimonidine tartrae eye drops.The stability of the preparation at high temperature and intense light illumination was studied.Results:Brimonidine tartrae eye drops was sensitive to high temperature and strong illumination.The stability of the preparation would get lower with the in- crease of pH.Conclusion:The optimum pH of the preparation was partial to acidity,and the optimum storage condition was low tem- perature and away from light.
