SIMULTANEOUS ESTIMATION OF MONTELUKAST SODIUM AND ACEBROPHYLLINE IN BULK AND COMBINED DOSAGE FORM BY UV SPECTROPHOTOMETRIC METHOD Authors: Ozarde YS* And Mehta PP
ABSTRACT
In the present work a simple, sensitive, accurate and reproducible ultraviolet
spectrophotometric absorption correction method was developed and validated for the
simultaneous estimation of Montelukast sodium and Acebrophylline in bulk and marketed
tablet dosage form. Methanol was used as a solvent to prepare stock solutions. Montelukast
sodium was estimated directly at 345 nm as Acebrophylline showed no interference with zero
absorbance at this wavelength. Both the drugs showed absorbance at 334 nm. Thus the
amount of Acebrophylline was estimated by correcting the absorbance of Montelukast
sodium for interference at 334 nm. Absorptive values were used for this purpose. The method
obeyed Beer’s law in the concentration range of 5-10 mcg/ ml for Acebrophylline and 100-
200 mcg/ mL for Montelukast sodium. The developed analytical method was found to be
accurate and precise after its validation as per ICH guidelines. Thus, by using proposed
method, simultaneous estimation of Montelukast sodium and Acebrophylline can be
successfully carried out in bulk and in combination dosage form of tablet as well.
