Hydroquinidine is a structural analogue of quinidine. It is used in the treatment and prevention of cardiac arrhythmias and necessitates serum monitoring. Fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA) of quinidine has been proposed and we have tested the performance of this assay for hydroquinidine u

✦ Synopsis
A gas chromatographic (GC) method for quantitation of flecainide acetate in human plasma is described and compared with a fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA) for therapeutic drug monitoring. The GC method includes a solid-phase extraction procedure and electron capture detection (ECD) without the need of derivatization. Within-day and between-day coefficients of variation were less than 7% of GC and FPIA. Recovery was between 89-101% for the GC method. Plasma from 36 patients were analysed by both GC and FPIA and the results showed a good correlation (slope = 0.96; intercept = 0.009 micrograms ml-1; r = 0.987).
