Paracetamol is a common analgesic and antipyretic drug. Their determination in pharmaceuticals is of paramount importance, since an overdose of paracetamol can cause toxic effects. The aim of the present study is to do polarographic determination of paracetamol by calibration method using acetic acid and different maxima suppressors such as gelatin, fuchsion, methyl red, thymol blue and bromocresol green. Calibration method has been developed and applied for the determination of paracetamol present in some synthetic as well as medicinal samples using selected maxima suppressor-supporting electrolyte system. The method is strictly empirical, and no assumptions, except correspondence with the conditions of the calibration are made. According to the Ilkovic equation, with all other factors constant, id = kC. Where k is a constant defined by Ilkovic equation. This relation is the foundation of quantitative polarographic analysis and its general validity is well established. The results of polarographic determination of paracetamol from synthetic and medicinal samples by calibration method are in good agreement with the quoted values.
