ABSTRACT
A method based on RP-HPLC with indirect UV detection was
developed for the determination of Vildagliptin in pharmaceutical
dosage form. Vildagliptin is a potent dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitor
used for treatment of diabetes. Reverse phase separation was obtained
within 4 min and was linear in the range of 50–90 μg/mL (r2 = 0.999).
Separation was performed on a C18 column using a mixture of pH 8.2
buffer, acetonitrile and methanol as the mobile phase along with
indirect UV detection at 254 nm. The retention time was found to be Rt
= 3.9 ± 0.1 mins. The validation of this method included determination
of its specificity, accuracy, precision, linearity, LOD, LOQ, and
robustness. The LOD was 2.98 g/m and The LOQ was 9.94 g/mL for
Vildagliptin. The proposed method was successfully applied for the
quantitative analysis of VLG in tablet dosage form, which will help to improve quality
control and contribute to stability studies of pharmaceutical tablets containing this drug.
Keywords: Vildagliptin, Peptidase IV inhibitor, LOD and LOQ.
