NEW validated stability-indicating RP-hplc method for the simultaneous determination of metformin hydrochloride, linagliptin and empagliflozin in bulk and pharmaceutical dosage forms
Abstract
Objective: The purpose of the present study is to develop simple, fast, accurate, precise, and robust stability-indicating reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method for the simultaneous determination of metformin HCl, empagliflozin, and linagliptin in their combinations.
Methods: Separation was performed on Agilent Eclipse XDB-C18 (250 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 µm) column with a mobile phase consisting of 0.1 % triethylamine (pH =3) buffer and acetonitrile in the ratio 40: 60 (v/v) at a flow rate of 1 ml/min. Detection of the analytes was carried out at a wavelength of 240 nm with a photodiode array detector. The developed method was validated as per the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines.
Results: The retention time values under the optimized condition were 2.660 min, 3.586 min, and 5.412 min for metformin HCl, linagliptin, and empagliflozin, respectively. The method was linear over a concentration range of 100 µg/ml-1500 µg/ml, 0.5 µg/ml-7.5 µg/ml, and 2.5 µg/ml-37.5 µg/ml for metformin HCl,linagliptin and empagliflozin respectively. The limit of detection (LOD) of the method was found to be 4.00 µg/ml, 0.02 µg/ml, and 1.00 µg/ml for metformin HCl, linagliptin, and empagliflozin, respectively. The degradation peaks were clearly resolved from the parent drug peaks in the chromatograms of forced degradation studies.
Conclusion: The validated method was successfully applied for the determination of metformin HCl, linagliptin, and…
