Abstract

A simple, Accurate, precise and rapid method was developed for the simultaneous estimation of the Metformin and Linagliptin in Tablet dosage form. Chromatogram was run through Inertsil ODS C18 (250 x 4.6 mm, 5). Mobile phase containing Methanol, Acetonitrile and Water in the ratio of 40: 40: 20 was pumped through column at a flow rate of 1ml/min. Optimized wavelength for Metformin and Linagliptin was 258 nm. Retention time of Metformin and Linagliptin were found to be 2.764 min and 3.162 min %RSD of Metformin and Linagliptin were found to be 0.507 and 0.51 respectively. % Assay was obtained as 99.24% and 99.82% for Metformin and Linagliptin respectively. LOD, LOQ values of Metformin and Linagliptin were 0.08ppm, 0.25ppm and 0.03ppm, 0.08ppm respectively. Regression equation of Metformin was found to be y = 10831x-34273, and for Linagliptin value was found y = 21030x + 31232. Hence the developed method can be successfully employed for the routine analysis of Metformin and Linagliptin in bulk and pharmaceutical dosage forms.
