title: Determination of fluoxetine in human plasma using reserved phase HPLC.
abstract: A rapid, simple, accurate method for the determination of fluoxetine in human plasma is presented. Liquid-liquid extraction of fluoxetine was carried out using diethyl ether. Chlorprothixene was applied as an internal standard. The samples were chromatographed on a LiChrosorb RP-18 (10 microns) column and the mobile phase was acetonitrile/phosphate buffer pH 2.70 (9:1). The detection was carried at 254 nm. A linear quantitative response curve was generated over a concentration range of 100-600 ng/ml. Overall extraction efficiency of the extraction procedure was found to be 86 to 91% with a correlation coefficient of 0.992.
