SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC METHOD FOR SIMULTANEOUS ESTIMATION OF CEFIXIME TRIHYDRATE AND LINEZOLID IN TABLET DOSAGE FORM 

Journal Title: International Research Journal of Pharmacy (IRJP) - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 1

Abstract

The present manuscript describes simple, sensitive, rapid, accurate, precise and economical spectrophotometric method for the simultaneous determination of Cefixime Trihydrate and Linezolid in bulk and tablet dosage form. The method is based on the simultaneous equations for analysis of both the drugs using 0.05 M Potassium phosphate buffer pH 7.2 as solvent. Cefixime Trihydrate has absorbance maxima at 287.20 nm and Linezolid has absorbance maxima at 250.60 nm in 0.05 M Potassium phosphate buffer pH 7.2. The linearity was obtained in the concentration range of 2-22 μg/ml and 2-18 μg/ml for Cefixime Trihydrate and Linezolid, respectively. The concentrations of the drugs were determined by using simultaneous equations at both the wavelengths. The mean recovery was 100.2 ± 0.56 and 101.23 ± 0.63 for Cefixime Trihydrate and Linezolid, respectively. The method was successfully applied to tablet dosage form. The suitability of this method for the quantitative determination of Cefixime Trihydrate and Linezolid was proved by validation. The proposed method was found to be simple and sensitive for the routine quality control application of Cefixime Trihydrate and Linezolid in combination. The results of analysis have been validated statistically and by recovery studies.
