ABSTRACT
A simple, precise, accurate and rapid reverse phase high performance liquid chromatographic method was
developed for simultaneous estimation of Ranolazine and Dronedrone in bulk. The separation was achieved by
Xterra C18 column (150 mm × 4.6 mm; 5.0 μm). The estimation was carried out in isocratic program using buffer
and acetonitrile (50:50 v/v) as mobile phase, at a flow rate of 1mL/min. diluent was water and methanol(60:40)
and detection was carried out at 275nm. The retention time obtained for Ranolazine was 2.152min and Dronedrone
was 6.213 min. The calibration curves were linear in the concentration range of 15-90µg/ml for Ranolazine and 318µg/ml for dronedrone correspondingly with correlation coefficient (r2) 0.999.The mean recoveries were found to
be 99.97% for ranolazine and 100.02% for dronedarone. The proposed method has been validated as per ICH
guidelines and successfully applied to the estimation of ranalazine and dronedarone in their combined form.
Keywords: Ranolazine, Dronedarone, RP-HPLC simultaneous estimation.
1. INTRODUCTION
Ranolazine is anti-anginal drug and chemically it is a
piperazine derivative. IUPAC name of ranolazine is N(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-2-[4-[2-hydroxy-3-(2-methoxy
phenoxy) propyl] piperazin-1-yl]acetamide. Ranolazine
acts via altering the trans-cellular late sodium current.
It is by altering the intracellular sodium level that
ranolazine affects the sodium-dependent calcium
channels during myocardial ischemia. Thus, ranolazine
indirectly prevents the calcium overload the etiology of
cardiac ischemia. Ranolazine is indicated for the
treatment of chronic angina. Ranolazine may be used
with beta blockers, nitrates, and calcium channel
blockers, antiplatelet therapy, lipid-lowering therapy,
ACE inhibitors, and angiotensin receptor blockers.
Dronedarone, a benzofuran derivative, N-{2-butyl3
[4(3 di-butyl amino propoxy) benzoyl]-benzofuran-5yl} methanesulfonamide, is a potent drug mainly used
for the indication of cardiac arrhythmias. Dronedarone
is a multi-ion channel blocker, inhibiting the potassium
currents involved in cardiac re- polarisation including
http://ijps.aizeonpublishers.net/content/2015/2/ijps1019-1024.pdf
IKr, IKs, IKur, and IK (Ach) and has been shown to be
effective in the treatment of cardio- vascular
hospitalization in patients with paroxysmal or
persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) or atrial flutter (AFL).
There were some estimation methods for single and for
combination with other drugs but there is no method
found for simultaneous estimation of ranolazine and
dronidarone. [1-7] Hence the aim of present study is to
develop simple, fast, accurate, precise and specific

from any of the impurities, if present. As there was no
interference of impurities and also no change in the
retention time, the method was found to be Specific.

3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The nature of sample, its molecular weight and
solubility decides the proper selection of stationary
phase. The drugs Ranolazine and Dronedarone were
preferably analyzed by reverse phase chromatography
and accordingly C18 column was selected. The elution of
the compounds from column was influenced by polar
mobile phase. The ratio of ammonium acetate buffer to
Acetonitrile was optimized to 50:50 to give well
resolved and good symmetrical peaks with short run
time. The retention time of Ranolazine and
Dronedarone were found to be 2.152 and 6.213 min
respectively. The calibration curve was linear over the
concentration range of 15-90µg/ml (Ranolazine) and 318µg/ml (Dronedarone).
The linearity of the method was statistically confirmed.
RSD values for accuracy and precision studies obtained
were less than 2% which revealed that developed
method was accurate and precise. The system
suitability parameters were given in table-5. The
analytical recovery at five different concentrations of
Ranolazine and Dronedarone was determined and the
recovery results were in the range of 50-150µg/ml.
Therefore proposed validated method was successfully
applied to determine Ranolazine and Dronedarone in
tablet dosage form.

4. CONCLUSION
The developed method is accurate, simple, rapid and
selective for the simultaneous estimation of Ranolazine
and Dronedarone in pharmaceutical dosage form. The
excipients of the commercial sample analyzed did not
interfere in the analysis, which proved the specificity of
the method for these drugs. The sample preparation is
simple, the analysis time is short and the elution is by
isocratic method. Hence the proposed method can be
conveniently adopted for the routine quality control
analysis in the combined formulation.
