In method A, reversed-phase (RP)-HPLC analysis was performed on Zorbax C8 column (150 mm 4.6 mm, 5 m particle size i.d.), using a mobile phase consisting of methanol acetonitrile distilled water (pH 4) using orthophosphoric acid in the ratio (80:10:10, v/v) and flow rate of 0.7 mL min-1. Quantification was achieved with ultraviolet (UV) detection at 220 nm. In method B, TLC analysis was carried out on an aluminum-backed sheet of silica gel 60 F254 layer using ethyl acetate?methanol?ammonia (8:2:0.8, v/v) as the mobile phase. Quantification was carried out with UV detection at 262 nm. The validation of the proposed methods was applied according to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines. The suggested methods were successfully applied for the determination of the cited drugs in bulk powder and commercial dosage form.
