General description

Doxylamine is a member of the ethanolamine class of antihistamines and is the most effective over-the-counter (OTC) sedative in the US. This Snap-N-Spike® Reference Solution is applicable to use in LC/MS or GC/MS applications for clinical toxicology or forensic analysis.

Application


  • Quality assessment of doxylamine succinate: A chemometric approach was applied for quality assessment of doxylamine succinate with its degradation product, using predictive models based on UV-spectrophotometric data, highlighting its utility in ensuring the integrity of pharmaceutical formulations (Abd El-Hadi et al., 2022).

  • Analysis in over-the-counter medications: Doxylamine succinate was analyzed as part of a quaternary mixture in cold medications, utilizing a sequential spectrophotometric resolution approach, indicating its role in multi-component pharmaceutical analysis (Kelani et al., 2023).

  • LC-MS/MS method for plasma levels: A sensitive LC-MS/MS method was developed for determining doxylamine levels in human plasma, demonstrating its application in pharmacokinetic studies and bioequivalence assessments (Fu et al., 2022).
