Extractive spectrophotometric methods for the determination of fenofibrate.

Two simple and sensitive spectrophotometric methods have been developed for the estimation of fenofibrate in pure and pharmaceutical dosage forms. Method A and B are based on ion association complex formation of the drug with Methylene Blue and Saffranine respectively. Beers law is obeyed in the concentration range of 5-15 μg/ml (Method A) and 10-30μg/ml (Method B) with good correlation coefficients. These methods have been statistically evaluated and found to be precise and accurate.
