Abstract: 
Pioglitazone, an anti-diabetic molecule have been analyzed from a marketed capsule consisting of glimepiride and pioglitazone using spectrophotometric method. The method was developed at 270 nm using 0.1 N HCl as diluent. The method was found to be highly specific for pioglitazone in presence of glimepiride and other constituents of the capsule. The developed method is simple, precise, robust and stands validated as per ICH guidelines.
