Method is A Rapid, precise, accurate, specific and simple HPLC method developed for estimation of Furazolidone.AHigh performance liquid chromatograph using Phenomenex-Luna RP-18(2), 2504.6mm, 5 mcolumn, with mobile phase having a composition of Methanol: Acetonitrile [90:10 (v/v)] was used. The flow rate of 1.0 ml min-1 and effluent was detected at 259 nm. The retention time of furazolidonewas 2.770minutes. Linearitywas observed in concentration range of 2-18g/ml. Atorvastain was used as internal standard (IS), the retention timewas found to be 2.196minutes. The conc of internal standard used was 8 g/ml in each dilution The mean recoveries were found in the range of 99-100 %. The proposed method was validated for various ICH parameters like linearity, limit of detection, accuracy, precision, ruggedness, robustness, and system suitability.
