Abstract
The analysis of drugs is a priority in public health, particularly antibiotics which develop resistance due, among other things, to bad dosages or poor quality of the active substance. In this study, we evaluated eight antibiotics available in health centers in Djibouti through qualitative and quantitative analysis. The tests were based on high-purity reference products. In qualitative analysis by HPLC, only amoxicillin presented two impurity peaks. This observation is found in the dosage of this active ingredient with a value of 83 ±0.6 mg instead of the 500 mg indicated on the label. It will be necessary to diversify the sample’s provenance to seek the origin of this degradation.
