OBJECTIVE: To establish a method for the simultaneous determination of ornidazole and dexamethasone sodium phosphate in Compound ornidazole film. METHODS: HPLC was performed on the column of Inertsil ODS-3 with mobile phase of methanol-20 mmol/L phosphate buffer (pH was adjusted to 7.40 with glacial acetic acid)(55 ∶ 45,V/V) at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min, column temperature was 30 ℃, detection wavelength was 242 nm and volume injection was 10 μl. RESULTS: The linear range were 1-100 μg/ml for both ornidazole (r=0.999 7) and dexamethasone sodium phosphate (r=0.999 9); RSDs of precision, stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 2.0%; recoveries were 96.50%-99.80% (RSD=1.02%,n=9) and 96.50%-99.60%(RSD=0.99%,n=9). CONCLUSIONS: The method is specific with good precision and stability and high accuracy, and can be used for the simultaneous determination of ornidazole and dexamethasone sodium phosphate in Compound ornidazole film.
