A review on analytical methods of cilnidipine and its combinations

Abstract

Background-The chase to improve the quality of life has stimulated desirable changes in research to design and develop a new drug and enhance its safety and effectiveness. Thus, there is a gradual rise in demand to develop susceptible and specific analytical techniques for newly developed drugs. Thus, analysts are striving very hard to develop new and efficient analytical methods to achieve these targets. Main body of abstract-Analytical methods that analyze drug compounds in a given matrix need to be optimized and validated to ensure excellent selectivity, sensitivity, ease of use, speed of analysis, less expensive, and efficient analytical procedures. Developing a new analytical method should be considered critical, based on availability and accurate handling of different instruments. This review is a genuine venture of compiled literature of earlier and recent trends in the method developments for Cilnidipine (CLD) analysis alone and in combination with other drugs. It provides an in-depth assortment of practical aspects of various analytical techniques published for CLD. Conclusion-High-performance liquid chromatography and ultraviolet spectroscopy have been found the most acceptable for the analysis of CLD. Stability indicating studies and impurity profiling of CLD also prevailed in the assembled literature. Scanty work was observed with capillary electrophoresis, Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy, and electroanalytical methods to analyze CLD. Applications mentioned for CLD are significant in their particular field and contribute to analytical assay in future endeavos.
