A high performance liquid chromatographic method was developed and validated to simultaneously quantify citalopram with piroxicam, celecoxib and diclofenac sodium. Chromatographic analysis was performed at ambient temperature using Shimadzu Shim-pack CLC-ODS (M) 25M column linked to a UV-visible detector adjusted at 230 nm, employing 80:20 (v/v) methanol: water (pH 3.5) as mobile phase with flow rate 1.0 mL min-1. Validation was performed in the ranges 0.6-20, 0.9-28, 0.6-20 and 1.0-32 µg mL-1 with lowest level corresponding to detection limit 16.45, 23.33, 27.66 and 14.44 ng mL-1 respectively. With-in the day precision ranged from 0.14-1.67% and between-day precision from 0.40-1.50%, accuracies were 99.61-100.86%. The analytes were successfully detected without any observable interference in pharmaceutical formulation and human serum samples demonstrating effectiveness of method.
