The determination of tranexamic acid levels in tablets was performed using colorimetry method in several studies. Based on its structure, tranexamic acid shows very low UV absorption which impacts to the lack of sensitivity. Then, it requires the addition of a chromophore agent to facilitate and enhance the detection limit. Recently, FTIR reported has been established as a direct content determination for some tablet dosage forms as a specific, simple, and rapid method. In this present research, the method's performance was investigated to quantify tranexamic acid in its tablet dosage form directly. The result was compared to a developed colorimetry using ninhydrin reagent. Correlations between the two methods were analyzed using t-test. The good linearity was shown at a concentration range of 0.5 -1.75% w/w of NH group's spectra. Furthermore, the recovery, intra-and inter-day precision also have been proven to be fulfilled the validation requirement. Futhermore, LOD and LOQ of the method were 0.0531%w/w and 0.1770% w/w respectively. These results were next compared with the counterpart. Afterwards, the t-test statistically proved no significant difference of content determination yielded, between these two methods. In conclusion, FTIR can be used for quantifying the content of tranexamic tablet, than the colorimetry. Moreover, FTIR method also has some advantages such as easier, simpler, faster, cheaper and more sensitive than the counterpart methods. Finally, this method was suggested as a complementary for tranexamic content determination directly of its tablet dosage form.
