RP-HPLC method has been developed and validated for the determination of voricaonazole in bulk drug. The developed method is found to be specific, reproducible, and stability indicating. The Hypersil, C18 (250 X 4.6 mm) 5μ column was used and mobile phase consisting of water:acetonitrile to achieve good resolution and retention of the analyte and its impurities. The detector linearity was established from concentrations ranging from 5-100 μg/ml. The method was tested at different levels of specificity and accuracy as per requirements given in ICH guidelines. The molecule was exposed to the stress conditions such as acid, base, oxidation, heat and light as per the recommendations of ICH guidelines. The method was proved to be robust with respect to changes in flow rate, mobile phase composition and allied columns. The proposed method is found to be sensitive, precise, rapid, reproducible, and offers good column life.
