Simultaneous determination of amlodipine besylate and rosuvastatin calcium in binary mixtures by voltammetric and chromatographic techniques

Voltammetric and liquid chromatographic (LC) methods have been developed for the simultaneous determination of amlodipine besylate (AML) and rosuvastatin calcium (ROS) for the first time. Detailed electrochemical behavior and simultaneous voltammetric determination of AML and ROS were investigated in detail using glassy carbon electrode (GCE). High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and ultra-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) were also developed for the comparison. Voltammetric method exhibited linear dynamic responses for the simultaneous assay of AML and ROS in the concentration range between 0.006 and 2.85 μg/mL and between 0.01 and 5.00 μg/mL, with detection limits of 0.001 and 0.003 μg/mL, respectively. On the other hand, LC methods presented a wider linearity range than that of the SWV method between 0.5 and 100 μg/mL with the detection limits of 0.011 and 0.027 μg/mL for AML and 0.034 and 0.042 μg/mL for ROS by UPLC and HPLC techniques, respectively.
