Abstract
Objective: The aim of the present work was to develop and validate a simple UV spectroscopic method for the determination of duloxetine, which is a thiophene derivative and a selective neurotransmitter reuptake inhibitor for serotonin, norepinephrine, and to lesser degree dopamine.
 Methods: The UV Spectrophotometric analysis was performed using Shimadzu UV-1800 and Shimadzu UV-1700 spectrophotometer by using solvent system acetonitrile and water in the ratio of 8:2. Detection was performed at a wavelength of 290 nm. Method validation was carried out according to ICH Q2R1 guidelines by taking the parameters linearity, accuracy, precision, ruggedness, and robustness, LOD and LOQ.
 Results: The UV Spectrophotometric method was found linear in the range of 10-50 μg/ml. The method was rugged and robust with % relative standard deviation less than 2. The extraction recoveries were found to be higher than 99% in all experimental conditions.
 Conclusion: Based upon the performance characteristics, the proposed method was found accurate, precise and rapid and suitable for the determination of Duloxetine for routine analysis.
