N2 - A direct spectrophotometric method for the determination of Entecavir is developed. Entecavir is a guanine analogue that is used in the treatment of hepatitis B. The absorbance of the pure drug was measured at wavelength 253 nm. The method was found linear from 2.5-40 μg mL-1 (r2, 0.999). The RSD was 1.1% and accuracy was 99%. The validation results and statistical data demonstrate that the method is reliable, simple, cost effective and reproducible and has an importance in quality assurance of Entecavir analysis.
