Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Loxapine, its N-demethylated metabolite amoxapine, and their 7- and 8-hydroxy metabolites were determined simultaneously in plasma by a simple two-step extraction procedure followed by reversed-phase liquid chromatography. Baseline separation was achieved by a 5-microns Spherisorb C6 column. The mobile phase consisted of 5 mM phosphate buffer (with 14 mM orthophosphoric acid)-acetonitrile (with 105 microM nonylamine) (77:23, v/v). Assays of the steady-state plasma samples obtained from seventeen patients on loxapine showed substantial amounts of 8-hydroxy metabolites, lesser amounts of loxapine, amoxapine and 7-hydroxyloxapine and trace amounts of 7-hydroxyamoxapine. As 8-hydroxy metabolites possess only weak dopamine-D2 blocking activity, the final neuroleptic property of loxapine may be affected significantly by metabolic polymorphism.
