Capillary isotachophoresis was employed to separate and determine dimethinden enantiomers in various dosage forms. Several types of chiral selectors were tested in various electrolyte systems of different composition and different pH. The optimal leading electrolyte was composed of 10 mmol/l potassium acetate and acetic acid to achieve pH 4.8 with an addition of 4 mmol/l carboxyethyl-beta-cyclodextrin as the chiral selector and 0.2% of methylhydroxyethylcellulose (m-HEC) to suppress the electroosmotic flow. The terminating electrolyte was betaalanine of a concentration of 5 mmol/l. The evaluation included the precision, correctness, linearity, robustness, and selectivity of the elaborated ITP method. The pretreatment of the sample prior to analysis consisted in the dissolution and dilution of the appropriate dimethinden-containing dosage form with demineralized water to achieve the required concentration. Such a pretreated sample was directly dosed into the apparatus.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D004115 Dimethindene A histamine H1 antagonist. It is used in hypersensitivity reactions, in rhinitis, for pruritus, and in some common cold remedies. Dimethpyrindene,Dimethindene Maleate,Dimetindene,Fenistil,Forhistal,Maleate, Dimethindene
D006634 Histamine H1 Antagonists Drugs that selectively bind to but do not activate histamine H1 receptors, thereby blocking the actions of endogenous histamine. Included here are the classical antihistaminics that antagonize or prevent the action of histamine mainly in immediate hypersensitivity. They act in the bronchi, capillaries, and some other smooth muscles, and are used to prevent or allay motion sickness, seasonal rhinitis, and allergic dermatitis and to induce somnolence. The effects of blocking central nervous system H1 receptors are not as well understood.
