Method for determining the micro impurities of antimony in dosage forms has been developed. This method is based on stibine distillation into photo generated iodine solution, which was obtained in result of radiation of solution, contained 40 ml of 0,5 M of potassium iodide solution, 20 ml of acetate buffer solution, 10 ml of sensitizers mixture solution (Eosin, Auramine and Fluorescein in a molar ratio 1:1:1). It was reasoned about titrant concentration by current change in amperometric circuit installation. Decrease of iodine quantity is in resulting from the action of stibine on iodine. It leads to reduce of amperage in amperometric circuit. Time, which was necessary for distillation, varied from 20 to 25 minutes, depending on quantity of antimony in a sample. After amperage had reached stability, cell was blown by air and irradiated by light during 1–2 minutes. Then it was done a measure time, which was necessary to replenishment of titrant decrease. It was reasoned about quantity of eco-toxicant in dosage forms by change the amperage and by time of generation, which was necessary to replenishment of titrant decrease into absorption cell. Titration of antimony as stibine lowers the detection limit in 3 times, therefore this method isn’t worse than optical analysis methods in sensitivity, and one is better in speed of execution and simpleness. Lower limit of antimony detection is 0,016 mcg in amperage and 0,011 mcg in iodine generation time in absorption cell. Method for determining of antimony is fast. Method does not require expensive equipment. It allows to use this method in conditions of usual control and analytical laboratory.
