Objective: Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method (RP-HPLC) was developed for the assessment of lopinavir in the dosage form of tablet.Methods: Chromatogram was run through using Kromosil C18 4.5×150 mm using a mobile phase methanol: water of ratio 65:35% v/v with a rate of flow of 0.8 ml/min, measured by UV spectrometric detection at 265 nm. The method developed was validated in terms of precision, accuracy, linearity, and robustness parameters.Results: Retention time of lopinavir established at 2.482 min and percentage R.S.D of lopinavir found to be 1.0% and 0.5%, respectively. The method shows that good linearity range of 30–150 μg correlation coefficient of lopinavir was 0.997. The limit of detection was 2.97 and limit of quantification was 9.92, respectively. The percent purity of lopinavir was 99.87%.Conclusion: The suggested method (Rp-HPLC) for concurrent assay lopinavir was validated, which is appropriate method for the analysis oflopinavir quantitatively in tablet dosage forms and bulk.
