Simultaneous Determination of Pioglitazone and Glimepiride by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography

A rapid and accurate HPLC method has been developed for simultaneous determination of pioglitazone and glimepiride. Chromatographic separation of the two pharmaceuticals was performed on a Cosmosil C₁₈ column (150 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 m) with a 45:35:20 (v/v) mixture of 0.01 m triammonium citrate (pH adjusted to 6.95 with orthophosphoric acid), acetonitrile, and methanol as mobile phase, at a flow rate of 1.0 mL min^–1, and detection at 228 nm. Separation was complete in less than 10 min. The method was validated for linearity, accuracy, precision, limit of quantitation, and robustness [1, 2]. Linearity, accuracy, and precision were found to be acceptable over the ranges 2.50–30.00 g mL^–1 for pioglitazone and 0.10–10.00 g mL^–1 for glimepiride.
