1. The objective was to use modern mass spectrometric techniques to update current information on the metabolism of trimetazidine in human subjects found by previous studies. 2. Urine and plasma samples were taken from four healthy human volunteers taking part in a larger kinetic study. Each subject received an oral dose of 80-mg trimetazidine daily for 4 days. 3. Identification and quantitation of trimetazidine and its metabolites in urine and plasma were achieved using modern liquid chromatography-mass spectrometric methods. 4. The major drug-related component observed in urine and plasma was unchanged trimetazidine. In addition to the parent drug, 10 metabolites were detected in urine in concentrations ranging from 0.008 (0.01% dose) to 1.094 micrograms.ml-1 (1.4% dose). Metabolic profiles following acute and chronic doses of trimetazidine were qualitatively similar.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007202 Indicators and Reagents Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.

D001711 Biotransformation The chemical alteration of an exogenous substance by or in a biological system. The alteration may inactivate the compound or it may result in the production of an active metabolite of an inactive parent compound. The alterations may be divided into METABOLIC DETOXICATION, PHASE I and METABOLIC DETOXICATION, PHASE II.
