The manuscript describes two fluorimetric methods for the determination of some antiemetic drugs namely granisetron HCl, ondansetron HCl and tropisetron HCl, used in the management of nausea and vomiting induced by cytotoxic chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Granisetron HCl solution exhibits a native fluorescence, which can be applied for its determination at 365 nm upon excitation at 305 nm. The method was applied for the determination of granisetron HCl in drug substance, drug product as well as in presence of its acid induced degradation products.

Two novel spectrophotometric methods were presented in this work using ethanol as a solvent. The first method was the ratio difference spectrophotometric method [RDSM], in which the amplitude difference between two selected wavelengths on the ratio spectra were recorded and used for estimation of each of Leflunomide LEF in mixture with its alkaline induced degradate DEG and also for Diacerein DIA determination in mixture with Aceclofenac ACEC without interference from the other component in the mixture. The second method is the ratio subtraction coupled with constant multiplication [RS-CM], where LEF was determined in its mixture with its alkaline degradate DEG at 261 nm which is considered as a stability indicating assay.

Aliskiren hemifumarate (ALS) and amlodipine besylate (AML) were simultaneously determined by two different spectrofluorimetric techniques. The first technique depends on direct measurement of the steady-state fluorescence intensities of ALS and AML at 313 nm and 452 nm upon excitation at 290 and 375 nm, respectively, in a solvent composed of methanol and water (10: 90, v/v). The second technique utilizes synchronous fluorimetric quantitative screening of the emission spectra of ALS and AML at 272 and 366 nm, respectively using Δλ of 97 nm.
