Abstract (2. Language): 
A simple, specific, accurate, precise and economical spectrophotometric method has been developed for the estimation of Levofloxacin (LVF) and Ambroxol (AMB) in pharmaceutical dosage forms. Simultaneous equation method was used. The absorption maxima of the drugs were found to be 288 nm and 244 nm for Levofloxacin and Ambroxol respectively. Levofloxacin and Ambroxol obeyed Beer's law in the concentration range of 2- 16u.g/ml and 1-50u.g/ml respectively. Different analytical parameters such as linearity, precision, accuracy, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ) were determined as per ICH guidelines. The % assay for commercial formulation was found to be in the range of 99-101%.The recovery values between prescribed limit of 98-102% shows that the method is free from interference of excipients present in formulation. Hence, the developed method can be used quality control analysis for routine.
