A novel coated gastric floating drug-delivery system (GFDDS) of bergenin (BN) and cetirizine dihydrochloride (CET) was developed. First, the pharmacodynamic studies were performed and the results revealed that the new compounds of bergenin/cetirizine dihydrochloride had comparative efficacy as commercial products

This paper reports the development and validation of an assay for quantitation of bergenin in human plasma using liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Bergenin and the internal standard (I.S.), 5-bromo-2,4(1H,3H)-pyrimidinedione (5-BrU), were separated by reversed phase HPLC and quantitated by
