Abstract :
A new, simple, accurate, and precise high-performance thin-layer chromatographic method has been established for simultaneous analysis of Eprosartan and Hydrochlorothiazide from a tablet formulation. Standard and sample solutions of Eprosartan and Hydrochlorothiazide were applied to precoated 250 ?m layer of silica gel G 60 F and the plates were developed with Chloroform: Acetonitrile: Glacial Acetic Acid (7:3:1,v/v/v) as mobile phase. Detection and evaluation of densitograms was performed densitometrically at 254 nm. The linear range was 200-700 ng/band with the retention factors of Eprosartan and Hydrochlorothiazide were 0.26± 0.02 and 0.44±0.02, respectively. The method was validated and successfully used for analysis of the drugs in tablets.
