Simple, accurate, reproducible, and inexpensive UV-Spectrophotometric methods were developed and validated for the estimation of lincomycin hydrochloride in pharmaceutical preparations. Licomycin hydrochloride was estimated at 196 nm in water. Beer’s law was obeyed in the range of (6–30), (0.-15) g/ml, (r = 0.999), (r = 0.999) in the direct and standard addition methods respectively. These methods were tested and validated for various parameters according to ICH guidelines.
