The separation of seven structurally similar antidepressant drugs (amitriptyline, nortriptyline, imipramine, desipramine, protriptyline, doxepin, and nordoxepin) was achieved in under 15 min using a novel nonionic micelle polymer, poly(n-undecyl-alpha-D-glucopyranoside) (PUG) by use of capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE). Systematic studies with

A high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method was developed for the quantitative, simultaneous determination of the following four compounds in serum: E-doxepin, Z-doxepin, E-desmethyldoxepin, and Z-desmethyldoxepin. A 3-microns analytical silica column (6 x 100 mm) was employed with the mobile phase
This study was conducted to identify the cytochrome P450s (CYPs) responsible for the metabolism of the cis- and trans-isomers of the tricyclic antidepressant doxepin to its pharmacologically active N-desmethylmetabolite by in vitro techniques. The doxepin N-demethylation was studied by means
Body fluids and tissues in eight doxepin (Dox)-related deaths were investigated in order to prove whether the individual concentration of Dox, the concentration sum of parent drug and its active metabolite N-desmethyldoxepin (NDox) or the concentration ratio Dox/Ndox valuably contribute

It has been suggested that the polymorphism of the CYP2D6 gene can contribute to occurrence of fatal adverse effects. We therefore investigated postmortem toxicology cases of fatal drug poisonings related to CYP2D6 substrates, with the manner of death denoted as
