Simultaneous determination of terbutaline and salbutamol in plasma by selected ion monitoring. 1982

C Lindberg, and S Jönsson

We describe a method for simultaneous determination of terbutaline and salbutamol in plasma, based on gas chromatography chemical ionization mass spectrometry. Deuterium labelled terbutaline was used as internal standard for both drugs. The method has been used for the analysis of plasma samples obtained from asthmatic patients. The coefficient of variation at 0.3 ng ml-1 was 4.6% for terbutaline and 5.3% for salbutamol with a sample volume of 4 ml. The recovery of both drugs was greater than 80%.

D000420	Albuterol	A short-acting beta-2 adrenergic agonist that is primarily used as a bronchodilator agent to treat ASTHMA. Albuterol is prepared as a racemic mixture of R(-) and S(+) stereoisomers. The stereospecific preparation of R(-) isomer of albuterol is referred to as levalbuterol.
