Abstract/OtherAbstract:
A procedure for the determination of clomipramine and its 8-hydroxy, demethyl, 8-hydroxydemethyl and didemethyl metabolites in plasma and urine by high-performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection is described. A 1-ml plasma or urine sample is made alkaline with a carbonate buffer (pH 9.8) and extracted with 20% ethyl acetate in n-heptane. After back-extraction into an acid phosphate buffer (pH 2.4), an aliquot is injected into a 5-microns ion-paired reversed-phase column and eluted with a mobile phase containing a phosphate buffer with tetramethylammonium chloride-acetonitrile (57:43). The detection is coulometric with a first cell at +0.40 V, a second at +0.73 V and a guard cell set at 0.75 V for oxidation of the mobile phase. The method provides recoveries in the general range of 80-110% and a day-to-day precision of 3.7-8.8%, depending on the compound. The minimum quantifiable level for all compounds was 0.2 ng/ml with a 20-microliters injection. Steady-state plasma concentration data and urinary levels are reported for 24 depressed patients receiving daily either 75-150 mg orally or 50-75 mg by infusion.
