An isocratic liquid-chromatographic method employing one extraction step has been developed for the quantitation of five drugs and three metabolites in human plasma. The method uses 0.100-ml aliquots of human plasma and two internal standards. Chromatographic conditions include a 4.6 mm x 150 mm Spherisorb ODS2, 3 microns a high-performance liquid chromatography, (HPLC) column, a phosphate buffer-acetonitrile-methanol (700:160:140) mobile phase, and ultraviolet (UV) absorbance detection at 210 nm. Analytes and linear quantitation ranges (microgram/ml) were felbamate (FBM) 0.391-200; primidone (PRIM), 0.098-100; phenobarbital (PHENO), 0.195-100; carbamazepine (CBZ), 0.195-100; phenytoin (PHT), 0.195-200. For CBZ-transdiol (CBZ-TR) CBZ-epoxide (CBZ-EP), and the PHT metabolite, 5-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-5-phenylhydantoin (HPPH), the range was 0.049-25.0 micrograms/ml. Ethosuximide, methsuximide, 2-methyl-2-phenyl-succinimide (methsuximide metabolite), 2-ethyl-2-phenyl malonamide (PRIM metabolite, 5-ethyl-5-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-barbituric acid (PHENO metabolite), and mephenytoin do not interfere with quantitation of the above compounds.

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. Phenemal,Phenobarbitone,Phenylbarbital,Gardenal,Hysteps,Luminal,Phenobarbital Sodium,Phenobarbital, Monosodium Salt,Phenylethylbarbituric Acid,Acid, Phenylethylbarbituric,Monosodium Salt Phenobarbital,Sodium, Phenobarbital
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.

D011786 Quality Control A system for verifying and maintaining a desired level of quality in a product or process by careful planning, use of proper equipment, continued inspection, and corrective action as required.

D012044 Regression Analysis Procedures for finding the mathematical function which best describes the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. In linear regression (see LINEAR MODELS) the relationship is constrained to be a straight line and LEAST-SQUARES ANALYSIS is used to determine the best fit. In logistic regression (see LOGISTIC MODELS) the dependent variable is qualitative rather than continuously variable and LIKELIHOOD FUNCTIONS are used to find the best relationship. In multiple regression, the dependent variable is considered to depend on more than a single independent variable.

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.
