A simple, specific, accurate, and precise high-performance thin-layer chromatographic method for analysis of cefuroxime axetil and potassium clavulanate in a combined tablet dosage form is reported. The compounds were separated on aluminium foil plates precoated with silica gel 60 F 254, with chloroform-methanol-toluene 4:3:3 ( v/ v) as mobile phase. Densitometric evaluation of the separated bands was performed at 225 nm. The two drugs were satisfactorily separated with R F 0.77 ± 0.0114 and 0.29 ± 0.0114 for cefuroxime axetil and potassium clavulanate, respectively. Response was a linear function of amount over the calibration ranges 500–2500 and 2000–10 000 ng per band, respectively. The method was successfully validated and used for analysis of the drugs in a pharmaceutical formulation. Recovery was 100.05 ± 0.98% for cefuroxime axetil and 99.94 ± 0.538% for potassium clavulanate (mean ± RSD).
