The paper developed green, stability-indicating chromatographic methods to simultaneously quantify the antihyperlipidemic drugs fenofibrate and rosuvastatin in a binary mixture across bulk powder and tablet matrices, while separating them from impurities and degradation products using HPTLC plus spectrodensitometric detection and reversed-phase HPLC with UV detection. HPTLC used a hexane-isopropanol-triethylamine (12:11:0.1 v/v) developing system with band measurement at 242 nm, whereas HPLC employed an ethanol/0.03% SDS–0.02 M citrate buffer/0.03% SDS mobile phase at pH 3 with citric-acid gradient elution monitored at 276 nm, and calibration ranges were reported for both drugs. Validation included response surface/tolerance analysis with Six Sigma accuracy profiling for the HPLC method. The authors note the work is a Research Square preprint that has not been peer reviewed.

Abstract

Abstract Sensitive and specific green stability-indicating methods were developed for simultaneous determination of antihyperlipidemic Fenofibrate and Rosuvastatin in the binary mixture in bulk powders, tablets, in the presence of their impurities and degradation products, and human plasma by the HPLC method. The first method was based on HPTLC separation of the cited drugs from their impurities and degradation products followed by spectrodensitometric measurement of the bands at 242 nm. The separation was carried out using hexane-isopropanol-triethylamine (12:11:0.1, by volume) as a developing system. The second method was based on reversed-phase robust HPLC separation of the cited drugs from their impurities and degradation products with a mobile phase consisting of a mixture of ethanol/0.03% SDS -0.02 M citrate buffer/0.03% SDS pH 3 with citric acid gradient elution. Quantitation was achieved with UV detection at 276 nm. For the HPTLC-spectrodensitometric method the calibration curves in the range of 0.5-32 µg band-1, 0.2-13 µg band-1, for Fenofibrate and Rosuvastatin, respectively, and the HPLC method in the range of 2-32 µg mL-1 and 0.2-16 µg mL-1, for Fenofibrate and Rosuvastatin, respectively. Also, validated by Six Sigma quality using the accuracy profile for HPLC separation method, where, response surface/tolerance analysis was used.
