The determination of lamotrigine (LTG) simultaneously with carbamazepine (CBZ), carbamazepine 10,11 epoxide (CBZ-E), primidone (PRM), phenytoin (PHT), phenobarbital (PB), and 2-phenyl-2-ethyl-malonamide (PEMA) in human plasma was developed using micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MECC) with a diode-array detector. The reproducibility of both separation and quantitation with MECC analysis were appropriate for the intra- and interassay coefficients. The evaluated drugs concentration intervals of LTG, 0.5-10.0 micro g/mL; CBZ, 1.0-16.0 micro g/mL; PEMA, 1.0-20.0 micro g/mL; PB, 1.0-60.0 micro g/mL; PRM, 1.0-20.0 micro g/mL; PHT, 0.7-40.0 micro g/mL; and CBZ-E, 1.0-14.0 micro g/mL were linear with correlation coefficients higher than 0.987 and coefficients of the variation of the points of the calibration curve lower than 10%. The limit of quantitation of the investigated drugs in plasma varied from 0.5 to 1.0 micro g/mL, depending upon the drug. The MECC technique was sensitive enough to work with microsamples into the subtherapeutic, therapeutic, and toxic concentrations, as well as showed to be simple and efficient when applied to monitoring therapeutic drugs in patients treated with a combination of lamotrigine and other antiepileptic drugs such as hepatic enzyme-inducing agents.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D010634	Phenobarbital	A barbituric acid derivative that acts as a nonselective central nervous system depressant. It potentiates GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID action on GABA-A RECEPTORS, and modulates chloride currents through receptor channels. It also inhibits glutamate induced depolarizations.

D010657	Phenylethylmalonamide	A metabolite of primidone.	Ethylphenylmalonamide,Phenylethylmalondiamide,2-Ethyl-2-Phenylmalonamide,2 Ethyl 2 Phenylmalonamide
D010672	Phenytoin	An anticonvulsant that is used to treat a wide variety of seizures. It is also an anti-arrhythmic and a muscle relaxant. The mechanism of therapeutic action is not clear, although several cellular actions have been described including effects on ion channels, active transport, and general membrane stabilization. The mechanism of its muscle relaxant effect appears to involve a reduction in the sensitivity of muscle spindles to stretch. Phenytoin has been proposed for several other therapeutic uses, but its use has been limited by its many adverse effects and interactions with other drugs.

D011324	Primidone	A barbiturate derivative that acts as a GABA modulator and anti-epileptic agent. It is partly metabolized to PHENOBARBITAL in the body and owes some of its actions to this metabolite.

D002220	Carbamazepine	A dibenzazepine that acts as a sodium channel blocker. It is used as an anticonvulsant for the treatment of grand mal and psychomotor or focal SEIZURES. It may also be used in the management of BIPOLAR DISORDER, and has analgesic properties.
