Abstract

A simple, fast, accurate and specific reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method has been developed for simultaneous determination of Sildenafil base and its impurities in the Sildenafil Tartrate (API). The method was developed by reversed phase chromatography equipped with C18 (100 × 4.6 nm × 5.0 nm) column using mobile phase of (0.1%) formic acid and methanol (30: 70 ratio) with a flow rate of 0.5 ml/min with ultraviolet detector configured at 290nm. The method was validated as per ICH guidelines.
