A novel,safe,economic and sensitive method of spectrophotometric estimation has been developed using Azeoptropic mixture (water∶methanol:60∶40,v/v) for the quantitative determination of Lornoxicam,a practically water-insoluble drug.Hence,Lornoxicam stock solution was prepared in Azeoptropic mixture.Lornoxicam showed maximum absorbance at 383 nm.Beers law was obeyed in the concentration range 4-24 μg/mL with regression coefficient of 0.999.The method was validated in terms of linearity (R2=0.999),precision (CV for intra-day and inter-day was 0.28 0.68 and 0.12-0.92,respectively),accuracy (98.03-100.59％ w/w) and specificity.This method is simple,precise,accurate,sensitive and reproducible and can be used for the routine quality control testing of the marketed formulations.
