A rapid, simple method for the measurement of paroxetine in human plas
ma by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) wit
h fluorescence detection is described. This method includes only one-s
tep extraction of paroxetine and dibucaine, an internal standard, with
chloroform. Their recoveries were around 90%. The mobile phase, 10 mM
phosphate buffer-acetonitrile (40:60, v/v) was eluted isocratically.
Between- and within-day coefficients of variation were in the range of
1.9-9.4% and 2.3-13.3%, respectively. The detection limit was 0.2 ng/
ml. The method we describe can be easily applied to the measurement of
plasma paroxetine concentration for pharmacokinetic studies as well a
s for therapeutic drug monitoring in patients taking paroxetine. (C) 1
