- Description: A simple, sensitive and reliable high-performance liquid chromatographic procedure has been developed for the determination of erythromycin in human serum and urine using amperometric detection. A solid-phase extraction procedure was used followed by chromatography on a reverse-phase column. The mean recovery of erythromycin from serum and urine was 80%. This method allows both erythromycin and its principle degradation product, anhydroeythromycin, to be determined during a period of sample storage at 4 degree C and minus 15 degree C. The method is sufficiently sensitive and precise and is thus highly suited for use in both pharmacokinetic and stability studies.

- Description: The pharmacokinetics of phenylpropanolamine have been studied in healthy human volunteers following the oral administration of an aqueous solution of the drug (50 mg/200 ml). Blood and urine samples collected throughout the trial were assayed using HPLC with UV detection. The drug was shown to be rapidly absorbed with a mean tmax of 1.47 ± 0.49 h and a mean elimination half-life of 4.0 ± 0.5 h. Phenylpropanolamine is predominantly excreted via the kidney with a mean renal clearance of 0.646 ± 0.089 liter/kg/h and 90.2 ± 1.7% excreted unchanged in the urine. The data were not well described using conventional one or two body compartment models. However, the incorporation of a discontinuous absorption phase into the models resulted in an improved overall fit with better characterisation of the absorption phase.
