Spectrophotometric Determination of Pipazethate HCl and Dextromethorphan HBr using Potassium Permanganate.

Rapid, simple and sensitive validated spectrophotometric methods have been described for the assay of pipazethate HCl (PiCl) and dextromethorphan HBr (DEX) either in pure form or in pharmaceutical formulations. The proposed methods were based on the oxidation of the studied drugs by a known excess of potassium permanganate in acidic medium and estimating the unreacted permanganate with amaranth dye (method A), acid orange II (method B), indigocarmine (method C) and methylene blue (method D), in the same acid medium at a suitable λmax=521, 485, 610 and 664 nm, respectively. Beer's law is obeyed in the concentration range of 2.

Spectrophotometric determination of hyoscine butylbromide and famciclovir in pure form and in pharmaceutical formulations.

A simple, rapid, and extractive spectrophotometric method was developed for the determination of hyoscine butylbromide (HBB) and famciclovir (FCV) in pure and pharmaceutical formulations. These methods are based on the formation of yellow ion-pair complexes between the basic nitrogen of the drug and four sulphonphthalein acid dyes, namely; bromocresol green (BCG), bromothymol blue (BTB), bromocresol purple (BCP) and bromophenol blue (BPB) in phthalate buffer of pH range (3.0-3.
