New HPLC method for the determination of artemether in injections

This new economical HPLC method has been developed for the estimation of artemether in injections to reduce the cost of estimation. Previously, one HPLC method is available in European Pharmacopoeia for the estimation of artemether but it is costly due to high price of acetonitrile. Present study replaced acetonitrile with methanol and showed that new method remained as specific, linear, accurate and precise as previous.   Key words: Artemether, injections, HPLC, acetonitrile, methanol.
