Abstract
Pralidoxime chloride known as 2-PAM chloride is used as antidote for nerve agent’s poisoning. This study was undertaken to establish the compatibility of 2-PAM chloride with a number of commonly used excipients by using thermoanalytical technique viz., differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetry/differential thermogravimetry (TG/DTG) used in pharmaceutical formulation. The TG and DSC both results demonstrated that polyvinyl alcohol, polyacrylamide, microcrestline cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, cellulose acetate, ethyl cellulose found to be compatible with 2-PAM chloride and chosen for the preparation of antidote against chemical warfare agents.
