The present work was developed to create three rapid, simple, eco-friendly, cheap spectrophotometric methods for concurrent assay of Sofosbuvir (SOF) and Simeprevir (SMV) in their pure, laboratory prepared mixture and pharmaceutical dosage form with high degree of accuracy and precision. Three methods were developed including iso-absorptive point, ratio subtraction and dual wavelength. The linear range of the proposed methods was 3.

Type 2 diabetes can be cured by using tradjenta (also known as Linagliptin), a new therapeutic drug that is an inhibitor of the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 enzyme. Tradjenta is administered orally alone or in combination with metiguanide or empagliflozin. An easy and specific fluorimetric analysis of Tradjenta was developed and demonstrated in the present investigation.

In the present work, a simple, highly selective and stability-indicating, high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) method is proposed and validated for the assay of simeprevir both in pharmaceutical dosage form and spiked human plasma. The method used silica gel 60 F coated HPTLC aluminum plates as the stationary phase.

Simeprevir (SMV) is commonly co-administered with ledipasvir (LDS) and sofosbuvir (SOF) as an effective combination regimen for treatment naive hepatitis C virus infected patients. In the present study, two spectrofluorimetric approaches were combined together for the development of highly sensitive, rapid, simple and accurate method for simultaneous quantification of SMV and LDS. The native fluorescence intensity values of SMV and LDS were enhanced by the addition of Tween-80 micellar system, while second derivative of the synchronous fluorescence intensity of the drugs at Δλ = 120 nm enabled the determination of both drug concomitantly.
