A rapid, simple, accurate, and economical least time consuming rosuvastatin spectrophotometric method has been developed for the assay of atorvastatin and then compare assay of brand available in Karachi,Pakistan. The assay is based on the ultraviolet UV absorbance maxima at about 244nm wavelength of atorvastatin using methanol as solvent. A sample of drug was dissolved in methanol to produce a solution containing atorvastatin. Similarly, a sample of ground tablets of different brand were extracted with methanol and diluted with the same methanol. The absorbance of sample preparation was measured at 244 nm against the solvent blank and the assay was determined by comparing with the absorbance of available brand. The method can be applied for the routine QC quantitation of atorvastatin in tablet formulation and active.
