A method is described for the determination of oxantel and pyrantel pamoate in proprietary broad spectrum anthelmintic tablets. Quantitation is performed by using an octyl Spherisorb column with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and water modified with butylamine. Carbaryl-(1-naphthyl methylcarbamate) is used as internal standard.
