ABSTRACT: A simple, reproducible, and efficient reverse phase high performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for simultaneous determination of Lornoxicam and Thiocolchicoside in pure form and marketed combined pharmaceutical dosage forms. A column having Symmetry (C18) (150mm × 4.6mm, 5µm) in isocratic mode with mobile phase containing Methanol: Phosphate Buffer (pH-3.8) (28:72 v/v) was used. The flow rate was 1.0 ml/min, and the effluent was monitored at 252 nm. The retention time (min) and linearity range (ppm) for Lornoxicam and Thiocolchicoside were (1.794, 3.440 min) and (10-30, 10-50), respectively. The method has been validated for linearity, accuracy, and precision, robustness, and limit of detection, and limit of quantitation. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were found to be 0.86µg/ml and 2.58µg/ml for Lornoxicam and 1.28µg/ml 3.84µg/ml for Thiocolchicoside respectively. The developed method was found to be accurate, precise and selective for simultaneous determination of Lornoxicam and Thiocolchicoside in tablets.

INTRODUCTION: Lornoxicam is an orally bioavailable oxicam and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), with analgesic, anti-pyretic, anti-thrombotic, and anti-inflammatory activities. Upon oral administration, Lornoxicam 20 binds to and inhibits the activity of the cyclooxygenase enzymes (COX) type 1 (COX-1) and type 2 (COX-2). This blocks COX-mediated signaling pathways, which leads to reduced prostaglandin and thromboxane production and decreased pain, fever, and inflammation. Lornoxicam differs from other oxicam compounds in its potent inhibition of prostaglandin biosynthesis, a property that explains the particularly pronounced efficacy of the drug.
Lornoxicam is approved for use in Japan. The IUPAC Name 21 of Lornoxicam is 6-chloro-4-hydroxy-2-methyl-1, 1-dioxo-N-(pyridin-2-yl)-2H-1λ6-thieno [2, 3-e] [1,2] thiazine-3-carboxamide and the chemical formula 22 is C13H10ClN3O4S2. The Chemical Structure of Lornoxicam is in Fig. 1.
FIG. 1: CHEMICAL STRUCTURE OF LORNOXICAM
Thiocolchicoside 23 (Muscoril, Myoril and Neoflax) is a muscle relaxant with anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. It acts as a competitive GABAA receptor antagonist and also glycine receptor antagonist with similar potency and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors to a much lesser extent. It has powerful convulsant activity and should not be used in seizure-prone individuals. Thiocolchicoside 24 is a semi-synthetic derivative of the colchicine, a natural anti-inflammatory glycoside which originates from the flower seeds of Superba gloriosa. It is a muscle relaxant with anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. It has potent convulsant activity 25 and should not be administered to individuals prone to seizures. The IUPAC Name of Thiocolchicoside is N-[(10S)-3,4-dimethoxy- 14- (methylsulfanyl)- 13-oxo- 5-{[(2S, 3R,4S,5S,6R)-3, 4, 5-trihydroxy-6-(hydroxymethyl) oxan-2-yl] oxy}tricyclo[9.5.0.0²,7]hexadeca-1(16), 2, 4, 6, 11, 14-hexaen-10-yl]acetamide and the chemical formula 25 is C27H33NO10S. The chemical structure of thiocolchicoside is in Fig. 2.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: Method Development:
METHOD VALIDATION: The proposed method was subjected to validation for various parameters like linearity and range, precision, accuracy, and robustness in accordance with International Conference on Harmonization Guidelines.
Linearity: The linearity of an analytical method is its ability to elicit test results that are directly, or by a well-defined mathematical transformation, proportional to the concentration of an analyte in samples within a given range. Weigh accurately 10mg of Lornoxicam and 10mg of Thiocolchicoside in 10 ml of volumetric flask and dissolve in 7ml of mobile phase and make up the volume with mobile phase. This solution contains 10-30 μg/ml of Lornoxicam and 10-50 μg/ml of Thiocolchicoside.
Acceptance Criteria: The correlation coefficient should be not less than 0.999. The linearity data and respective chromatograms for Lornoxicam and Thiocolchicoside are as follows.

System Suitability: A system suitability test was an integral part of the method development to verify that the system is adequate for the analysis of Lornoxicam and Thiocolchicoside to be performed. System suitability test of the chromatography system was performed before each validation run. Five replicate injections of a system suitability standard and one injection of a check standard were made. Area, retention time (RT), tailing factor, asymmetry factor, and theoretical plates for the five suitability injections were determined.
CONCLUSION: In the present investigation, a simple, sensitive, precise, and accurate RP-HPLC method was developed for the quantitative estimation of Lornoxicam and Thiocolchicoside in bulk drug and pharmaceutical dosage forms. Lornoxicam was found to be soluble in the organic solvents ethanol, DMSO, and dimethylformamide (DMF) and slightly soluble in water and Acetonitrile. Thiocolchicoside was found to be soluble in water, methanol, 0.1N HCl, 0.1N NaOH. Methanol: Phosphate Buffer (pH-3.8) (28:72% v/v) was chosen as the mobile phase. The solvent system used in this method was economical. The %RSD values were within 2, and the method was found to be precise. The results expressed in tables for the RP-HPLC method was promising. The RP-HPLC method is more sensitive, accurate, and precise compared to the spectrophotometric methods. This method can be used for the routine determination of Lornoxicam and Thiocolchicoside in bulk drug and in pharmaceutical dosage forms.
