Quantification is achieved with TUV detection at 254 nm over the concentration range of 25–150 μg/ml for grazoprevir and for elbasvir 12.5–75 μg/ml, with a correlation coefficient of 0.999 and 0.999, respectively. The developed method was validated according to the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines with respect to linearity, accuracy, precision, specificity, and robustness. Forced degradation study was extended out under acidic, alkaline, oxidative, photolytic, and thermal conditions to demonstrate the stability-indicating capability of the developed UPLC method. The degradation products were well resolved from the main peak, thus proved the stability-indicating power of the method. The results of the analysis were validated statistically.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The method is precise, accurate, linear, robust, and fast. The short retention time allows the analysis of a large number of samples in a short period of time and, therefore, should be cost-effective for routine analysis in the pharmaceutical industry.</p>}, number={4}, journal={Asian Journal of Pharmaceutical and Clinical Research}, author={S, Madhavi and Rani A, Prameela}, year={2018}, month={Apr.}, pages={100–104} }
