Simultaneous equation method

To method develop and validate simple, rapid, cost effective, linear, accurate, precise and economical for the simultaneous estimation of Pregabalin and Methylcobalamin in bulk and tablet dosage form by using UV-Spectrophotometry. The drug obeyed the Beer’s law and showed good correlation of concentration with absorption which reflect in linearity. The UV-Spectroscopic method was developed for estimation of Pregabalin and Methylcobalamin in bulk and tablet dosage form and also validated as per ICH guidelines. The method based on measurement of absorbance at two wavelengths 222 nm (λmax of Pregabalin) and 219 nm (λmax of Methylcobalamin) in Ethanol and distilled water. Linearity graph of Pregabalin and Methylcobalamin were found to be linear in the concentration ranges of 30-150 μg/ml and 0.6-3 μg/ml, respectively, with their correlation coefficient values (R2) 0.999. The low %RSD values indicate method to be accurate and precise. The % recovery of tablets found to be in range of 97-102% and other validation parameter were found to be within the limits as per ICH guidelines.

The present research work discusses the two new, simple, accurate, precise and reproducible UV spectrophotometric methods have been developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of Prasugrel (PRASU) and Aspirin (ASP) in their combined dosage form.  Method- I is based on simultaneous equation method using two wavelengths, 254 nm (λmax of PRASU) and 276 nm (λmax of ASP). Method - II Q‐absorption ratio method using two wavelengths, 274.7 nm (Isoabsorptive point) and 254 nm (λmax of PRASU). Methanol was the solvent used in all methods. This method obeyed Beer’s law in the concentration range of 5-60 µg /ml for PRASU and 20-140 μg/ml ASP. All methods were validated statistically and recovery studies were carried out. Hence, the methods herein described can be successfully applied in quality control of combined pharmaceutical dosage form.
