In the present study simple and rapid UV spectroscopic method was developed to quantify Tolterodine Tartarate (ToT) in bulk and marketed tablets. The λmax of ToT in proposed mediums were 266nm and 284nm respectively and follows linearity in the concentration range 5-30μg/ml with a correlation coefficient 0.9996 and 0.9992. The % recovery of ToT from the marketed tablets were 99.66% and 100.12% with low % RSD values for two proposed mediums and was found to be in good agreement with the labelled claim. The % recovery in the standard addition method was in the range of 100.4 to 101%, with low % RSD indicate the proposed mediums had good reproducibility. The % RSD value < 2 indicate that the method is precise, robust and can be rugged. The above method is a rapid tool for routine quantification of ToT in the bulk and in the pharmaceutical dosage form.

College students experience high levels of stress due to academic pressure, financial concerns and social challenges. The study was conducted in institution among approximately 450 students using questionnaire forms with multiple choices. They selected the options according to their preferences. From this answered forms the needed data were collected from the study. This study examines the causes and effects of stress on students mental and physical well-being. Findings indicate excessive mobile use and lack of sleep are the most common causes leading to anxiety, depression and reduced academic performance. Effective stress management strategies include mindfulness, exercise, good sleep, reduced use of mobile, social support, time management. Institutional support, such as counselling services and wellness programs, plays a crucial role in stress management. Implementing structured stress management programs in colleges can help improve student well-being and academic success.
