RP High Performance Liquid Chromatographic (HPLC) method
of analysis of Telmisartan in pure and pharmaceutical dosage form
was developed and validated products. Separation was achieved
on an XTerra® RP 8, 4.6 x150mm and the mobile phase (Buffer:
acetonitrile: methanol) (45:25:30) KH2PO4 & Triethaylamine pH
3.0 with ortho phosphoric acid buffer flow rate of 1 ml/min and
UV detection at 285 nm. Comprehensive stress testing of
telmisartarn was according to the International Conference on
Harmonization (ICH) guideline Q1A (R2). The drug was
subjected to acid hydrolysis, base hydrolysis, to apply stress
conditions. There were no other co eluting, interfering peaks from
excipients, impurities. The method was validated in terms of
linearity, precision, accuracy, specificity, robustness, and solution
stability. The linearity of the proposed method was investigated in
the range of 20‐100 μg/ml. The values of correlation coefficient
