Objective: The objective of this study was to develop and validate a stability-indicating reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for the simultaneous estimation of the metformin and empagliflozin in tablet dosage forms.
Methods: The chromatographic conditions were optimized and it was run through Std. BDS (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 m) column with mobile phase consisting of 0.1% orthophosphoric acid buffer: acetonitrile in the ratio of 50:50. The flow rate was 1 ml/min and optimized wavelength was 210 nm. Temperature was maintained at 30°C.
Results: The retention times of metformin and empagliflozin were found to be 2.588 min and 3.679 min and percentage relative standard deviation (RSD) of the metformin and empagliflozin was found to be 0.59 and 1.2, respectively. Percentage recovery was in the range of 100.01–100.65% for metformin and empagliflozin, respectively.
Conclusion: A sensitive, rapid, and specific method has been developed for the simultaneous estimation of metformin and empagliflozin using RP-HPLC in tablet dosage form.
