The seprtion nd quntifiction were chieved on Cyno C18 column using mobile phse of filtered nd degssed mixture of buffer nd cetonitrile in the rtio of 830:170 with of nlytes t 237 nm. Buffer ws prepred by dissolving 3.65 g of mmonium cette in 1000 ml of wter nd the ph ws djusted to 7.0 with sodium hydroxide t flow rte of 1.5 ml/min. The method showed good linerity with different concentrtions ner to 0.99909, 0.99902 nd 0.99871 for Olmesrtn Medoxomil, Hydrochlorothizide nd Amlodipine respectively. The recovery (Averge men & RSD) were chieved s 102.18, 1.01 for Olmesrtn Medoxomil, 102.58, 0.26 for Hydrochlorothizide nd 101.37, 0.26 for Amlodipine respectively. The precision (Averge men & RSD) were chieved s 99.9, 104.02 nd 99.80 for Olmesrtn Medoxomil, Hydrochlorothizide nd Amlodipine respectively. Keywords: HPLC, Amlodipine Besylte, Olmesrtn Medoxomil, Hydrochlorothizide. INTRODUCTION The totl number of drugs relesed in to the mrket is incresing drmticlly over the pst decdes cross the globe. Most of the drugs re either the prtil structurl modifiction of the existing drugs or new entities [1]. In some cses there will be time lg from the dte of drug introduction in to the mrket to the dte of its inclusion in phrmcopoeis. This usully hppens s result of uncertinity in continuous wider usge of these drugs, toxicity reports, development of resistnce with lredy existing methods, or it my not provide enough dequte sensitivity. In these conditions, sufficient stndrd nlyticl procedures my not be vilble in the phrmcopoeis due to ptent regultions nd moreover there my not be suitble method for prticulr nlyte in the specific smple mtrix [2-3]. Therefore it becomes necessry to develop new nlyticl methods for such drugs. Methods for drug nlysis cn be developed provided one should possess sound knowledge bout the nture of the smple with respect to its polrity, moleculr weight, solubility prmeter nd ionic chrcter. Now dy the development of method for drug nlysis is usully bsed on prior rt or existing literture using the sme quite similr instrumenttion. It is very rre tht n HPLC method is developed tht does not in some wy relte to existing literture-bsed methods. The development of ny new or improved method usully tilors existing pproches nd instrumenttion to the current nlyte s well s to the finl requirements of the method. 182

HPLC is considered to be most suitble nlyticl method for phrmceuticls nd remins s useful tool in future despite further dvnces in nlyticl chemistry becuse of severl overhelming dvntges for the solution of mny problems. These dvntges include speed, simplicity, specificity nd sensitivity. Literture studies revel tht there re nlyticl methods vilble for determintion of Amlodipine, Olmesrtn nd Hydrochlorothizide in combintion with other drugs [4-18] nd only few nlyticl methods vilble for simultneous estimtion of Amlodipine, Olmesrtn nd Hydrochlorothizide in combined form. Doshi et l., hve reported vlidted reverse phse HPLC method for simultneous estimtion of ll the three drugs by using Buffer:Acetonitrile (contining 10% Tetrhydrofurn) s mobile phse [19]. Nlluri et l., hve reported development nd vlidtion of reverse phse HPLC-PDA method for simultneous estimtion of Amlodipine, Olmesrtn nd Hydrochlorothizide in combined form by using 0.1% v/v formiccid:cetonitrile s mobile phse [20]. Although the methods shows optimum retention time it fils to provide detiled explntion on stbility control nd lcks vlidtion in terms of stress conditions like cid, bse, het, oxidtion, light nd UV. Also the pek shpes nd resolution of the bove two methods were lso not pproprite. Kumr et l., hve reported ultr performnce liquid chromtogrphy method development for simultneous estimtion of ll the three drugs by using sodium perchlorte:cetonitrile s mobile phse [21]. This method does not provide complete vlidtion of ll the three drugs in terms of its system suitbility nd robustness. Moreover the method developed ws not completely reproducible nd the pek resolution ws not good. Hence in the present work it ws plnned to develop stbility indicting HPLC method, which would be precise, ccurte, simple, reproducible nd relible for mrketed drug combintion of Olmesrtn Medoxomil, Hydrochlorothizide nd Amlodipine Besylte tblets. The objective thus, ws to subject this new tblet formultion to HPLC nlysis by different tril methods nd finlly rrive t suitble method for the determintion of the drugs therein. The present work ws minly confined to the estimtion of content of ctive ingredient with good resolution nd optimum retention time simultneously covering the vlidtion ssys completely s per ICH guidelines [22-23]. Olmesrtn Medoxomil belongs to the clss of medicines clled ngiotensin II receptor ntgonists to tret high blood pressure nd vilble in 5, 20 nd 40 mg tblet. Olmesrtn is prodrug hving one tetrzole nd one imdzole group. It usully blocks the binding of ngiotensin-ii to the AT 1 receptors in vsculr muscle thereby reduces vsoconstriction nd secretion of ldosterone which utomticlly lowers blood pressure by producing vsodiltion nd decresing peripherl resistnt [24]. Amlodipine Besylte is long-cting clcium chnnel blocker generlly used s n nti-hypertensive nd in the tretment of ngin. It inhibits clcium ion influx cross cell membrne selectively with more effect on smoother muscles thn on crdic muscles thereby reducing peripherl vsculr resistnt nd blood pressure. Hydrochlorothizide belongs to the thizide clss of diuretics, minly cting on the kidneys to reduce sodium rebsorption in the distl convoluted tubule. It helps in the rebsorption of clcium in distl convoluted tubule simultneously lowering peripherl vsculr resistnce [25]. MATERIALS AND METHODS HPLC instrument model nme: SPD-M10Avp (Shimdzu) PDA Detector. Softwre: Clss VP.

So ttempt ws tken to increse the difference in retention time by incresing the proportion of cetonitrile which resulted in pek brodening.

Olmesrtn, Hydrochlorothizide nd Amlodipine peks re free of interference in ll the stress studies where s the nlyticl method is sensitive to the degrdtion (for Olmesrtn, Hydrochlorothizide nd Amlodipine) nd sensitive to bse degrdtion (for Olmesrtn lone). Henceforth the method is selective to Olmesrtn, Hydrochlorothizide nd Amlodipine nd their degrdtion production. Degrdtion product peks did not interfere with the intct min pek, so this method is stbility indicting method.

This Reverse Phse HPLC is commonly used for the quntittive estimtion of drugs from their formultion s well s from the biologicl fluids. Ese of performnce specificity nd nlysis of smple re the importnt fetures of this technique. In the present work different proportion of orgnic solvents were tried for selection nd optimiztion of mobile phse. Sincere ttempt ws mde to increse the difference in retention time by incresing the proportion of Acetonitrile but decresing the volume of buffer nd methnol some extend resulted in the brodening of peks. The mobile phse tht found to be most suitble ws Buffer: Acetonitrile (87:13 v/v) ph 7.0 with sodium hydroxide. This mobile phse composition gve good resolution nd optimum retention time with pproprite tiling fctor (< 2). The detection wve length ws selected s 237.0 nm where the peks height of the drugs ws cceptble. Finlly the vlidtion of HPLC method ws performed s per ICH guidelines.
