Liquid chromatographic-mass spectrometric determination of haloperidol and its metabolites in human plasma and urine.

Haloperidol and its two metabolites, reduced haloperidol and 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-4-hydroxypiperidine (CPHP) in human plasma and urine were analyzed by HPLC-MS using a new polymer column (MSpak GF-310), which enabled direct injection of crude biological samples without pretreatment. Recoveries of haloperidol and reduced haloperidol spiked into plasma were 64.4-76.1% and 46.8-50.2%, respectively; those for urine were 87.3-99.4% and 94.2-98.5%, respectively; those of CPHP for both samples were not less than 92.7%. The regression equations for haloperidol, reduced haloperidol and CPHP showed good linearity in the ranges of 10-800, 15-800 and 400-800 ng/ml, respectively, for both plasma and urine. Their detection limits were 5, 10 and 300 ng/ml, respectively, for both samples. Thus, the present method was sensitive enough for detection and determination of high therapeutic and toxic levels for haloperidol and its metabolites present in biological samples.

Stability indicating methods for the determination of clozapine.

Five new selective, precise and accurate methods are described for the determination of clozapine in the presence of its main degradation product. Method A utilizes the second and third derivative spectrophotometry at 315 and 305 nm, respectively. Method B is RSD(1) spectrophotometric method based on the simultaneous use of the first derivative of ratio spectra and measurement at 295 nm. Method C is a pH-induced difference (delta A) spectrophotometry using UV measurement at 325 nm. Method D is a densitometric one, after separation on silica gel plate using methanol: water as mobile phase, and the spot was scanned at 295 nm. Method E is RP-HPLC using acetonitrile: water (40:60 v/v) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 1 ml/min and UV detection was at 295 nm. Regression analysis showed good correlation in the concentration ranges 3-10, 4-10, 10-25 micro g/ml, 200-1000 ng/spot, 5-100 micro g/ml with percentage recoveries of 99.4+/-0.28, 99.8+/-0.20, 100.05+/-0.11, 99.41+/-0.34, 100.11+/-0.07 and 100.07+/-0.05% for methods A, B, C, D and E, respectively. These methods are suitable as stability indicating methods for the determination of clozapine in the presence of its main degradation product either in bulk powder or in pharmaceutical formulations.
