A simple, precise, accurate, and economical spectrophotometric method has been developed for simultaneous estimation of levocetirizine dihydrochloride (LCT) and phenylephrine hydrochloride (PHE) by employing first-order derivative spectrophotometric method. The first-order derivative absorption at 240 nm (zero crossing point of PHE) was used for quantification of LCT and 283.2 nm (zero crossing point of LCT) for quantification of PHE. The linearity was established over the concentration range of 4–24 μg/mL and 8–48 μg/mL for LCT and PHE with correlation coefficients (r2) 0.9964 and 0.9972, respectively. The mean % recoveries were found to be in the range of 99.14%–100.43% for LCT and 98.73%–100.83% for PHE. The proposed method has been validated as per ICH guideline and successfully applied for the simultaneous estimation of LCT and PHE in combined tablet dosage form.

A simple, accurate, precise, rapid, economical UV spectrophotometry method, dual wavelength spectrophotometry, has been developed and validated for estimation of Indapamide (IND) and Amlodipine besylate (AML) in combined tablet dosage form and can be used in routine analysis. In this method, the absorbance at 360 nm and 256 nm of AML were same and no interference of IND at 360 nm. was observed. So, absorbance difference at 256-360 is used for estimation of IND and absorbance at 360 nm used for AML. The method was found to be linear in the concentration range of 3-18 μg/mL for IND (r2>0.99962) and 10-60 μg/mL for AML (r2>0.99969). Mean assay was found to be 99.32% and 101.34% for IND and AML respectively. In first order derivative spectrophotometry, the absorbance at 237.4 nm (ZCP of AML) and 241 nm (ZCP of IND) were used for estimation of IND and AML respectively. The method was found to be linear in the concentration range of 1.5-9 μg/mL for IND(r2=0.99983) and 5-30 μg/mL for AML(r2=0.99966). Mean assay was found to be 99.72% and 100.28% for IND and AML respectively.

Paracetamol, ambroxol hydrochloride, levocetirizine dihydrochloride, and phenylephrine hydrochloride are used in combination for the treatment of chronic sinusitis, rhinitis, fever, nasal discharge, sore throat, and wheezing. The present work deals with method development for simultaneous estimation of paracetamol, ambroxol hydrochloride, levocetirizine dihydrochloride, and phenylephrine hydrochloride in tablet formulation by first-order derivative spectrosphotometry. For determination of sampling wavelength, 10 μg/mL of each of paracetamol, ambroxol hydrochloride, levocetirizine dihydrochloride, and phenylephrine hydrochloride was scanned in 200–400 nm ranges and sampling wavelengths were found to be 305.5 nm for paracetamol, 321 nm for ambroxol hydrochloride, 244 nm for levocetirizine dihydrochloride, and 280 nm for phenylephrine hydrochloride in first-order derivative spectrophotometry. In this method, linearity was observed in the ranges of 20–140 μg/mL for paracetamol and 10–70 μg/mL for ambroxol hydrochloride, levocetirizine dihydrochloride, and phenylephrine hydrochloride. The % recovery was within the range between 98 and 102%, and % relative standard deviation for precision and accuracy of the method was found to be less than 2%. The method is validated as per International Conference on Harmonization Guidelines. The method can be successfully applied for the simultaneous analysis of these drugs in pharmaceutical dosage forms.
