A validated non-aqueous potentiometric titration method for quantitative determination of clopidogrel bisulphate from pharmaceutical preparation

Department of Chemistry, D.G. Ruparel College, Mahim, Mumbai-400016

Abstract

A simple precise, rapid accurate and sensitive non-aqueous potentiometric titration method was developed for quantitative determination of clopidogrel bisulphate from pharmaceutical dosage form. The titration was carried out using standardized 0.1 N perchloric acid. The proposed method was found to be precise with % RSD <1 (n = 6). The method showed strict linearity (r2 > 0.9999) between 20% to 100% of 0.100 mg of drug substance weight. The percentage recovery of clopidogrel bisulphate in the optimized method was between 100.0 to 100.416%. The method is also found to be rugged when checked by different analysts and using different lots of reagents and different makes of titrators.
