In the present work, simple, accurate and rapid stability indicating RP-HPLC method has been developed for the simultaneous estimation of Metformin and Empagliflozin in bulk and tablet dosage form. Separation of analytes was carried out on Ascentis C18 HPLC column (4.6 x 150 mm, 5 μm) using a mobile phase of 0.1% orthophosphoric acid and acetonitrile (60:40, v/v), at a flow rate of 1.0mL/min and measurement carried out at UV 260 nm. The validation parameters namely linearity, sensitivity, selectivity, specificity. robustness, precision and accuracy were determined. The peak area response-concentration curve was linear, over the concentration range of 125-750 μg/mL for Metformin and 1.25-7.50 μg/mL for Empagliflozin with quantitation limits of 4.59 μg/mL for Metformin, and 0.08 μg/mL for Empagliflozin. The proposed method was successfully validated for the determination of Metformin and Empagliflozin simultaneously in combined tablet dosage form. The performance of the present method was compared with available RP-HPLC methods and found to be rapid and economical. The proposed stability-indicating RP-HPLC method can be successfully applied to quality control and drug analysis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
