Patients diagnosed with hypertension are prescribed a large number of medications for appropriate therapy, increasing risk of side effects or drug interactions. Enalapril, ACE inhibitor is commonly used as a drug of choice for the treatment of hypertension. On the other hand, NSAIDs are generally used for the treatment of pain, fever and inflammation, particularly in arthritis. A simple, efficient, economical and least time consuming isocratic method for the simultaneous determination of enalapril (ENP) and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (flurbiprofen, diclofenac sodium, ibuprofen and mefanamic) in bulk, pharmaceutical formulations and human serum using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) has been developed and validated. ENP was separated from NSAIDs using a Purospher STAR C18 column (250×4.6 mm, 5 μm) and a mobile phase consisting of methanol, water (80:20,.. View More»
