The eluents were monitored at 223 nm.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Empagliflozin was eluted at a retention time of 5.417 min and established a co-relation co-efficient (R<sup>2</sup>&gt;0.999) over a concentration ranging from 0.0495-100µg/ml. Percentage recovery was obtained between 98-102% which indicated that the method is accurate. The Limit of Detection (LOD) and Limit of Quantitation (LOQ) were found at 0.0125µg/ml and 0.0495µg/ml, respectively.</p><p><strong>Conclusion</strong>: An RP-HPLC method which was relatively simple, accurate, rapid and precise was developed and its validation was performed for the quantitative analysis of empagliflozin in bulk and tablet dosage form (10 and 25 mg) in accordance to International Conference of Harmonization (ICH) Q2 (R<sub>1</sub>) guidelines. The proposed method may aid in routinely analyzing empagliflozin in pharmaceuticals.</p> ER -
