TLDR New, simple, and cost-effective methods can accurately measure Minoxidil in medicines.
The study introduces new spectrophotometric methods for determining Minoxidil in pharmaceutical forms using a double beam Shimadzu Model UV-1800UV-VIS spectrophotometer. Minoxidil demonstrated linearity in various solutions, including distilled water and different pH buffers, within the concentration range of 0.1-20 µg/mL and 0.1-15 µg/mL. These methods were validated according to ICH guidelines and are described as simple, economical, and effective for Minoxidil assay in pharmaceutical dosage forms.
