Quantification of propiverine by liquid chromatography/electrospray tandem mass spectrometry: application to a bioequivalence study of two formulations in healthy subjects.

Here we report on the development and validation of a sensitive and rapid reversed-phase liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for the quantitative determination of propiverine in human plasma. After adding an internal standard (oxybutynin chloride) to human plasma, samples were extracted using n-hexane/ethylacetate (8:2, v/v). Compounds extracted were analyzed by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode for analyte detection. This method for determination of propiverine proved accurate and reproducible, with a limit of quantitation of 0.5 ng/ml in human plasma. The standard calibration curve for propiverine was linear (r2=0.9988) over the concentration range 0.5-1000.0 ng/ml in human plasma. The intra- and inter-day precision over this concentration range was lower than 8.66% (relative standard deviation, %R.S.D.), and accuracy was between 99.46 and 109.41%, respectively. This method was successfully applied to a bioequivalence study of two propiverine hydrochloride tablet formulations (20 mg) in 24 healthy subjects after a single administration.[1]
