Tranexamic acid Mefenamic acid, Simultaneous estimation, RP-HPLC method.Abstract
A selective and sensitive reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) has been developed for
the separation and quantification of Tranexamic acid and Mefenamic acid in tablet dosage form and validated .The
determination was carried out using Thermosil C18 column (25 cm ×4.6 mm id) as a stationary phase and mobile
phase comprised of Methanol: Sodium acetate buffer in proportion of 65:35(v/v) with pH adjusted to 3±0.5 by using
orthophosphoricacid. The flow rate was 1.0ml/min and the eluent was monitored at 256nm.The retention time of
Tranexamic acid and Mefenamic acid were 2.45 ±0.028 min and 4.31±0.018 min respectively.. The Coefficient of
correlation and percentage recoveries of Tranexamic acid and Mefenamic acid were 0.9986 and 100.0l % and 0.9994
and 99.98% respectively. The method is validated for accuracy, Precision, ruggedness and Robustness. The proposed
method is successfully applied for the simultaneous determination of both drugs in commercial tablet preparation.
The results of the analysis have been validated statistically and by recovery studies.
