The aim of this study was to determine any possible, baclofen-lactose Maillard reaction products. Granules and tablets of baclofen and lactose were prepared and maintained in heat ovens for a certain time period. The effects of lactose type, addition of magnesium stearate, and water were monitored. Heated lactose and baclofen were analyzed using reverse-phase HPLC. Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectroscopy revealed nominal mass values consistent with baclofen-lactose, early-stage Maillard reaction condensation products (ESMRP). Multiple reaction monitoring confirmed the presence of ESMRP as well. FTIR analysis proved the formation of imine bond. The results indicated that baclofen undergoes a Maillard-type reaction with lactose.
