ANALYTICAL METHOD DEVELOPMENT AND VALIDATION FOR SIMULTANEOUS ESTIMATION OF SOFOSBUVIR AND LEDIPASVIR: A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW Authors: Badeliya SN , CHAUHAN NF AND DAVE SP
ABSTRACT
Sofosbuvir is a newer antiviral drug candidate that well inhibits nucleotide polymerase virus. It
can be given in the treatment of hepatitis C virus but it cannot prevent spread of the same to
other people. Several ideal properties like limited daily dosing, less side effects, fewer drug-drug
interactions, minimal drug resistance make this drug safer for the use. Ledipasvir is also a newer
drug that was developed by Gilead Sciences and can be used in the treatment of Hepatitis C
virus. This drug is an active inhibitor of hepatitis virus C protein NS5A. Common side effects of
both these drugs include fatigue and headache. When combination of Sofosbuvir and Ledipasvir
taken in a fixed dose, hepatitis C virus of genotypes 1, 4, 5, and 6 can be well prevented.
Sofosbuvir-Ledipasvir therapy has been found to be safe and effective in the treatment of patient
affected with hepatitis C virus. In this review, we have included several HPLC and RP-HPLC
methods on Sofosbuvir and Ledipasvir either individually or in combination with another drug
agent.
