A simple, rapid, sensitive, and cost-effective green solvent-assisted reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic technique, coupled with a photodiode array detector, was developed and validated for the estimation of piroxicam (PRXM). The chromatographic separation was achieved by using a C-18 (250 × 4.6) mm, 5-μm stationary phase and a mobile phase consisting of methanol and 0.1% ortho-phosphoric acid in water in a ratio of (80:20) v/v at a flow rate of 1 ml/min. The detection was carried out at a wavelength of 254 nm with a constant injection volume of 10 μL throughout the analysis. The calibration curve was observed to be linear over the optimum concentration range of 50-300 μg mL-1, with an R2 value of 0.9995. The developed method was validated as per the International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) Q2 (R1) guideline. Various parameters like selectivity/specificity, accuracy/recovery, linearity, precision, detection limit, quantitation limit, robustness and stability of analyte in solution were performed for the method validation. The PRXM was evaluated under stressed conditions, including acidic, basic, oxidative, thermal and photolytic, as per ICH Q1 (R2) guidelines. Significant degradation was observed in acidic and basic degradation conditions. Conversely, the drug substance showed stability when exposed to oxidative, photolytic and thermal degradation conditions.
