A simple and sensitive UV spectrophotometric method was developed and validated for the determination of pregabalin in bulk & pharmaceutical formulations. The method was linear in the range of 6-14 $\mu$g/ml with a correlation coefficient of 0. 9986. There is no generally accepted method for the determination of pregabalin. The absorbance was measured at 210 nm. The method was validated with respect to accuracy, precision, Stability, limit of detection and limit of quantitation. This method is found to be simple, specific, precise, accurate, reproducible and low cost UV Spectrophotometric method.
