Abstract: A simple, specific, accurate and precise reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatographic method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of Atorvastatin and Fenofibrate in tablet dosage form by reverse phase C18 column, Phenomenex (250 x 4.60 mm), Particle Size 5 µ. The samples were analyzed by using Acetonitrile: 0.1 % w/v Phosphoric acid in the ratio of 65:35 v/v as a mobile phase at the flow rate of 2 mL min-1 in isocratic mode and detection wavelength 254 nm. Both the drugs were eluted within 10 minutes and give sharp peak with high theoretical plate count and low tailing factor. The retention time for Atorvastatin and Fenofibrate was found to be 4.3 and             7.7 minute respectively. The validation was carried according to ICH guidelines. In linearity curve, correlation coefficients for Atorvastatin and Fenofibrate were found to be 0.9987 and 0.9992 respectively. The percent recovery was 99.65 for Atorvastatin and 99.88 for Fenofibrate indicating accuracy and reliability of method. So the method can be used for estimation of combination of these drugs in tablet dosage form.
