Objective: The aim of study is to perform the assay of brand and active of Pioglitazone HCL (piozer 15mg) by using UV visible spectrophotometer.
Methodology: Take brand of Hilton pharma Piogiltazone HCL (piozer 15mg) is compared with active of Piogiltazone HCL with brand (Piozer). Initially weighted 20 tablets of brand of Piogiltazone HCL (Piozer) then these tablets were uniformly grounded by using mortar and pestle and calculating the average weight of powder equivalent to 0.1006 gm of active i.e. Piogiltazone HCL was transferred into a volumetric flask containing 10mL of water. The solutions were sonication for 5-6 min and make up volume up to 50 ml with DI water.
Result: The data result shows that the absorbance is directly proportion to concentration, it obeys to Beers lambert law and assay of brand (Piozer) and active of Piogiltazone HCL are within range of USP and British pharmacopeia linearity. The correlation coefficient for active and brand of Piogiltazone HCL (PLH) were found to be 0.9998 for brand (Piozer), 0.9915 for active (PLH).
Conclusion: This method is easily used in routine Quality Control (Q.C) lab for the determination of the assay of any brand of Pioglitazone HCL by using UV spectrophotometer. This method is simple, accurate and economical.
