A simple, fast, sensitive and low-cost voltammetric method using a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) is presented in this work for the simultaneous determination of ascorbic acid (AA), paracetamol (PA), dextromethorphan (DX) and caffeine (CF) in both pharmaceutical formulations and samples of environmental interest. The oxidative peak current displayed linear dependence on concentration within the range 1.7–60.5, 0.6–40.0, 0.9–8.4 (1st linear part) and 1.8–22.0 mg L<sup>−1</sup> for AA, PA, DX and CF, respectively; and detection limits of 0.5, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.5 mg L<sup>−1</sup>, respectively. The developed differential pulse voltammetric (DPV) method was validated using both a pharmaceutical product and a spiked well water sample. A very good agreement between the determined and the theoretical label drug content and recoveries in the range of 99.5–100.8% were obtained for pharmaceutical product and well water samples, respectively.
