Abstract

The cutting-edge combination of aspirin (ASA) and sildenafil citrate (SIC) has been presented as a suggested dosage form for the treatment of thin endometrium and erectile dysfunction, particularly in patients with cardiovascular diseases. However, ASA is highly sensitive to degradation into its major deterioration product, known as salicylic acid (SA). Consequently, it is eminently essential to evolve approaches for the synchronous quantification of ASA and SIC in the presence of SA. The main objective of this work is to develop three approaches for the synchronous quantification of ASA and SIC in the presence of SA in their commixtures and suggested formulations without any prior separation. Three green UV-methods were employed for the synchronous quantification, namely: Dual Wavelength in Ratio Spectra (DW-RS), Advanced Amplitude Centering (AAC), and Double Divisor of Ratio Difference Derivative (DDRD-D 1 ). In DW-RS and AAC two-wavelength manipulation was used for resolution, while in DDRD-D 1 only an appropriate wavelength for the synchronous quantification of the triplex commixture was used. All approaches can be able to resolve the highly interfering spectrum of the three components presented in the triplex commixture. Good linearity was inspected in the range of 20.0–100.0, 5.0–50.0, and 4.0–60.0 μg/mL for the ASA, SIC, and SA, respectively. All developed approaches have been advocated in accordance with ICH guidelines. All results from these approaches are presented…
