INTRODUCTION Diclofenac sodium becomes considered part of derivative of phenyl acetic acid, as well as its chemical structure is shown in (Figure 1a) [1]. It has a number of medical importance, such as non-steroidal obviously pro-inflammatory reaction, It’s also performed under different situations, such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and ligament illnesses and even in the prevention of endovascular eye miosis throughout glaucoma processing [2-33]. Lidocaine Hydrochloride has become a local anesthetic and the chemical name is hydrochloride 2- (Diethylamino)-N-(2, 6- dimethylphenyl)-acetamide, its chemical structure is illustrated in (Figure 1b) [1, 34]. Lidocaine has a medical importance in using for local anesthesia and its mechanism of action is stopping the nerve signals between nerves in the body, which leads to cause a temporary numbness and a loss of skin and mucous membranes’ feeling [2]. (a) (b) Figure 1: Compound composition for (a) Diclofenac sodium [1] (b) Lidocaine hydrochloride [34] A combined dosage form of both diclofenac sodium and lidocaine HCl had been formulated, under the name of Olfen ampoules which is available worldwide. The medical importance of the combination form is that the administration of Olfen injections shows a low pain at site of injection and also a better local tolerance [1]. According the literature review on both drug in both the United Kingdom and the United States, analysis of raw material of diclofenac sodium is performing by Pharmacopoeias through using a special method, which is known as potentialometric un-aqueous serial dilutions and that its medication combination dosage forms are determining mostly by reversed phase HPLC (RP- HPLC) technique [1, 3, 4]. Diclofenac A B Figure 1: Chemical structures of (A) Diclofenac Na, (B) Lidocaine HCl The two studied drugs have been formulated in combined dosage form, which is called Olfen ampoules. The combined formulation is recommended to be used to ensure that olfen injections has a less painful effect and also a better local tolerance. On reviewing the literature, it was found that both United Kingdom [3] and the United States [4] Pharmacopoeias analyzed DIC in its raw material by potentiometric non-aqueous titration and determined it in its dosage forms by RP- HPLC method [3, 4]. DIC has been also analyzed along with other drugs by different methods such as spectrophotometric [6-9], multivariate calibration [10], spectroflurimetric [11, 12], TLC- Densitometric [13- 15], HPLC [16-19], capillary electrophoretic [20, 21] and electrochemical [22] methods. Furthermore, The British Pharmacopoeia (BP; 4) and the United States Pharmacopeia (USP; 5) suggest several procedures for the assay of LID powder and dosage forms. Most BP procedures depend on titrimetry for LID in powder form and HPLC was described for the assay of the ointment form. On the other hand, HPLC is predominant in the USP monographs of LID in powder form and its dosage forms, while titrimetric procedures are used for the semisolid topical preparations (ointment and jelly) [3, 4]. LID has been also analyzed by different methods such as spectrophotometric [23], multivariate calibration [2], Gas Chromatography (GC) [25], TLC- Densitometric [26, 27], HPLC [28-31] and capillary electrophoretic [32] methods. The binary mixture of DIC and LID has been analyzed by two reversed phase HPLC methods for the simultaneous determination of DIC and LID in binary mixture and pharmaceutical formulation [33, 34]. This work concerns with development and validation of three spectrophotometric Kurdistan Journal of Applied Research | Volume 5 – Issue 1 – June 2020 | 117 sodium with other drugs were also identified using various techniques, including Uv- spectrophotometrics [1,5,6,7,8,9], multivariate calibration [10], spectrofluorometric [11,12], TLC- Densitometry [1,13,14,15], HPLC [16,17,18,19], Electrophoretic capillary methods[20,21], and electrical and chemical techniques [1]. Furthermore, for assessment of lidocaine HCl in its powder and dosage forms, a number of suggested techniques are using by all other the British Pharmacopeia and the United State Pharmacopeia companies. Moreover, titrimetric method is mostly used by British Pharmacopoeia for powder form of lidocaine HCl while for evaluation of lidocaine HCl in the ointment form HPLC method was applied. However, in the United States pharmacopeia monograph HPLC seems to be a successful technique for estimating of lidocaine throughout powder structure whereas for analyzing dosage forms and semisolid topical arrangements titrimetric method seems more efficient [1, 3]. Various techniques were utilized for lidocaine HCl for example UV-visible spectrophotometer [23], multivariate calibration [2], Gas Chromatography [25], Thin Layer Chromatography Densitometry [1], Revers-phase higher performance chromatography [22, 23] and capillary electrophoretic techniques [1]. Lidocaine HCl and Diclofenac sodium are examined by two turned around stage HPLC techniques for the synchronous assurance of diclofenac sodium and lidocaine in two-fold blend and pharmaceutical definition [1]. The proposed techniques have the advantage of less time consuming and cost over the distributed HPLC techniques; therefore, there is no requirement for high cost instruments or chemicals [1]. 2. METHODS AND MATERIALS Determination of Lidocaine HCl and Diclofenac sodium by reverse phase HPLC (waters alliance 2695 HPLC system) For determination of lidocaine HCl and diclofenac Na, the HPLC–Diode array detector approach has been applied, which has the following characteristics such as waters alliance 2695 HPLC system USA, the auto-sampler injection system, Flush Qua ternary, de-gassing dryer and array group, but rather numerous frequency finders 2487 UV-Visible or 996 Photodiode array detector, The 2487 UV-Visible detector is considered as the greatest sensitive and flexible absorbance detector which is available for HPLC. Moreover, it has a quality advanced programmability, dual wavelength capacity, un-matchless signal-to-noise performance, decreased optical band width, and unusual linearity associated with a PC stacked with Empower Software. The column of Waters Symmetry was used to evaluate both analytes, C7-RP-HPLC column 4.6 x 150 mmf column. The injection volume was injected a 20 μl loop. Mobile phase filtrated by Millipore Swinnex filter 0.45 μm particle size. A type of higher performance liquid chromatography is called Waters, system 2487 different with the parameter Ultraviolet absorption coefficient detector and the Waters 2695 plus auto-sampler were utilized individually like a mobile phase at flow 1ml/min,As well as the latter retention moment of lidocaine HCl is a 4.1 ±0.5 min and 10.8 ±0.5 min for lidocaine HCl. Degassing was accomplished through Ventilation via a 0.45 μm pore size thickness channel and bubble prevention its do sonication. Worked on auto sample and column heat at 25 ° C, using wavelength detector at 254 nm. Diclofenac sodium and Lidocaine HCl were applied by medical Pioneer Company for pharmaceutical in Sulaimani province, Kurdistan Region of Iraq. The purity was found or analsying by pioneer co at 99.9% and 99.7% for diclofenac sodium and lidocaine HCl respectively according to analyzing method by pioneer company. Olfen 75 IM ampules (Batch No. T13415A) every ampule categorized which contains two actives with different concentration 75 mg/2ml for diclofenac sodium and 20 mg/ml for lidocaine HCl respectively produced by Mepha Pharmaceutical readiness. The chemical materials used for preparation mobile phase is Methanol analytical grade and sodium acetate manufactured by sigma-Aldrich and deionized water refined utilizing a Milli-Q Reagent Grade water system were used as a drug solvents. At the concentration of 1 mg / ml for lidocaine and 3.75 mg / ml for diclofenac sodium, standard solution of diclofenac Na and lidocaine HCL was fully prepared in the Kurdistan Journal of Applied Research | Volume 5 – Issue 1 – June 2020 | 118 moving phase. Applied method and investigation of ampule Measurement types A substance of 10 Olfen ampules has been correctly combined and exactly measured quantity of 2.0 ml proportionate to 20.0mg Lidocaine and 75.0 mg of Diclofenac sodium changed into exchanged dissolve and make a full a 50 ml volumetric flask by mobile phase it’s the technique of every strategy was followed and the centralization of Diclofenac sodium and Lidocaine Hydrochloride was determined from the comparing relapse condition. The Reverse phase -HPLC Technique for The Diclofenac sodium and Lidocaine Chloride became accredited in term of precision, reproducibility, linearity, specificity, Constrain of Discovery (LOD), Constrain of Measurement (LOQ), and power concurring to ICH Harmonized Tripartite Rules [30]. The framework suitability was evaluated by six duplicate investigations of Diclofenac sodium and Lidocaine HCl at a concentration of 3.75mg/ml and 1.0 mg/ml. The acknowledgment foundation was ±2% within the peak range and maintenance time for diclofenac sodium and lidocaine HCl was for relative standard deviation present. The HPLC Reversing Phase technique was assessed to make which the ingredients. Given in the details were not interfered with. A particularity became concentrated by another infusion of ingredients. Linearity is considered as the capacity to acquire the results of the test which are straight forwardly relative to the grouping of the materials; furthermore, linearity is normally controlled by three injections of five different concentrations of diclofenac sodium and lidocaine HCl (50, 75, 100, 125 and 150 mg / ml) and then the normal top regions were plotted against the concentrations. At that point, the linearity is assessed by utilizing the calibration bend in order to calculate the coefficient of relationship, which is included incline and captured. In common, an esteem of the relationship coefficient that are more than 0.999; therefore, it is considered as the proof of a satisfactory fit for the information to the relapse line. Moreover, the precision of an explanatory strategy communicates the closeness between the anticipated esteem and the measured esteem. This is achieved through measuring a basis points recovery (R percent) of the recovered eluent. Therein example, to assess the accuracy of the created technique, progressive examination three diverse concentrations one less than in the real concentration of 75mg/ml and 100 mg/ml and one more than the actual concentration of 125 mg / ml of Diclofenac sodium and Lidocaine HCl standard was achieved using the strategy developed. In addition, the information of the test was measurably examined by utilizing the equation % Recuperation = (Recuperated conc. /Infused conc.) ×100, which to be considered as the recuperation and legitimacy of the created strategy. The acknowledged cruel recuperation ought to be inside 98–102%. The precision of a quantifiable method is defined as the level of understanding between individual tests, whenever the method of evaluating different imitates is drearily linked of three distinctive events. First, the intraday accuracy was examined by assessing the measurement curves of six duplicates of distinctive inter-day accuracy concentrations by analyzing six replicates of different Diclofenac sodium and Lidocaine HCl concentrations. Its three different days. Moreover, the technique's complete precision was communicated like RSD. Six imitate examinations at the accumulation of 120 μg / ml of conventional diclofenac sodium and lidocaine HCl have decided on precision within the current strategy improvement and approval convention arrangement utilizing the created strategy and % RSD ≤ 2% was acknowledged. The Detection limit smallest quantity of a substance which may be distinguished by a stated confidence level from the absence of that substance. Quantification limit would be the lowest intensity of analyte which could be corrected with satisfactory sensitivity and specificit y. In the current investigation, those other two variables are quantified using the equation limit of detection = 3.3 Signal/Noise equal to 0.76 mg mL−1 for diclofenac sodium and 1.23 mg ml- 1for Lidocaine HCl but quantification limit = 10(Sy/S) 1.8 mg mL−1 Diclofenac sodium and 0.5 mg mL−1 for Lidocaine HCl conventional reaction variation (crest zone) and S = calibration bend inclination.

DISCUSSION Olfen ampoule is available in Kurdistan region pharmacies markets and it is widely used to treat different kind of pains. The analysis of this injection till today is not available in the United States pharmacopeia, British pharmacopeia and not even in Indian pharmacopeia. The combination of diclofenac sodium and lidocaine HCl injection was assessed by using reversed-phase HPLC-DAD in as it were one past distribution [24]. The distributed system included the application of the thermos scientific octadecasilane column as well as a flexible isocratic process consisting 80 % of methanol, 20% of water and 0.01% corrosive acid [24]. Its past consideration did not illustrate the strategy's specificity and allow the two analytes to be determined from their associated compounds and objects of restricted- corruption [35]. Can resolve that shortcoming, a modern Revers-phase HPLC expository strategy was created and approved for assurance of both diclofenac sodium and lidocaine HCl and also to Solid specific flexibility-showing- investigation and performance certainty for diclofenac sodium with lidocaine HCl blend. Its foremost imperative viewpoint within the LC strategy advancement is the accomplishment of adequate determination with satisfactory alignment of the crest at sensible examination moment. And accomplish such purpose, HPLC – DAD 254 nm procedure in their combined pharmaceutical dosage form for assaying DC and LD. The minimal requirement of organic solvents demonstrated simplicity as water was used as a solvent for the preparation of working standard and sample solutions. That indicates that the approach proposed is cost-effective and environmentally friendly. Similarly, different from the universal UV detector 280 nm used in the previously published HPLC method [35]. , Kurdistan Journal of Applied Research | Volume 5 – Issue 1 – June 2020 | 126 numerous studies are performed to improve as well as the fixed stages and the portable stages [35] and between the two materials with a fruitful determination of two components from the tried related substances and subsequently it was utilized in this consider [35].The mobile phase consisted of 0.1M sodium acetate and methanol and column different from the previously published HPLC method [35].Based on the broad run approach both diclofenac sodium and lidocaine HCl and also lead to the disadvantages of the past distributed strategies for settling the combined combination. Therefore, the current investigation aims to create and approve an exact, delicate and specific spectrophotometric method and HPLC procedure for measuring diclofenac sodium and lidocaine HCl in a mixture detailing in the absence of planning or handling the test. To evaluate the accuracy of the reversed-phase HPLC-UV System. A recovery experiments were performed on three representative standards and two commercial drug samples. And then standard additions method (Figure 5) was used for all of these determinations in order to avoid all the possible interferences [25, 26]. Method consistency was recorded as a percentage of relative standard deviation, and was calculated by evaluating reproducibility (internal-day measure) for 6 duplicate injections across all lidocaine-HCl concentrations. Also, the medium sensitivity (internal-day variety) was also tested over twice days utilizing an appropriate lidocaine-HCl concentration solution. The Intra-day average recoveries were in the range (96-100) and Inter- day average recoveries (93-100), which thought to be an acceptable result [27]. 5. CONCLUSION In conclusion, the modern reverse phase higher performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) technique is an easy, quick, clearly, accurately, and broadly acknowledged, and it is suggested for productive tests in a schedule work and also as a release reason within the quality control. In this manner, the strategy was demonstrated to be appropriate for diclofenac sodium and lidocaine HCl determination. Further explorations are needed to investigate the standardization of each individual compound separately. Therefore, this considers a depicted, selective dependable reverse-phase HPLC strategy, factual examination demonstrates that the strategy is reasonable for both component in dosage form straightforwardness was outlined by minimum utilized a dissolvable for arrangement of working standard a test arrangement.
