Upon irradiation with short-wavelength UV light the tranquillizer demoxepam is converted into a highly fluorescent product. This reaction serves as a sensitive and selective means of detection of low levels of demoxepam in e.g., serum after separation by means of

Psychopharmacology, 208(4), 555-562 (2010-01-13)
In chronic studies, the classical benzodiazepine chlordiazepoxide (CDP) is often the preferred drug because, unlike other benzodiazepines, it is soluble in water. However, rapid CDP hydrolysis in solution has been described. This would diminish plasma levels in chronic minipump studies

The identification of the metabolite demoxepam in human urine establishes that chlordiazepoxide, a common benzodiazepine, has been administered. Like N-oxide metabolites of other drugs, demoxepam cannot be detected by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), due to thermal decomposition, and the product

A simple, rapid method for the determination of the benzodiazepines, diazepam and chlordiazepoxide, and their metabolites by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) has been developed. The procedure is applicable to the assay of other similar drugs in biological fluids. The

Since some patients with eosinophilia-myalgia syndrome ingested tryptophan along with benzodiazepines, we investigated whether demoxepam, the N-desalkylated compound of chlordiazepoxide, would influence the binding of tryptophan to hepatic nuclei. L-Tryptophan has been shown to bind (saturable, stereospecific, and of high
