A bioequivalence study of two verapamil formulations (generic verapamil tablets and Isoptin® tablets) was performed by comparing pharmacokinetic parameters of the parent drug and its major metabolite, norverapamil following a single dose administration of 80 mg verapamil hydrochloride in 22 healthy volunteers according to a randomized, two-period, crossover-design study. Moreover, the feasibili...

A rapid, sensitive and reproducible HPLC method was developed and validatedfor the analysis of amifostine (AMF) and/or its metabolite, WR-1065 inhuman plasma. The method involves the alkylation of free sulfydryl group with iodoacetic acid followed by derivatization of the drug and its metabolite witho-phthaldialdehyde (OPA) andUVdetection at 340 nm. The derivatized AMF and WR-1065 were eluted i...
