Abstract

A high performance thin layer chromatographic method has been reported for estimation of losartan potassium with hydrochlorothiazide in combination. The analytes were resolved on precoated silica gel 60 F254 TLC plates prewashed with methanol using solvent system composition of chloroform: Methanol : Ethyl acetate (4:2:2 v/v/v) with 15 min time of saturation. The analytes were tracked down at 255 nm. The components were resolved with retention factor of losartan potassium (0.59 ± 1.98) and hydrochlorothiazide (0.83 ± 1.95). The method assured linearity in the concentration range of 600-1000 ng/spot for losartan potassium and 300-500 ng/spot for hydrochlorothiazide, respectively. Accuracy of method was assessed and found upto 100 % ± <2. The method assured high degree of precision. The robustness was confirmed by deliberately varying the parameters like composition of mobile phase, mobile phase volume, detection wavelength, chamber saturation time.
