Abstract

The qualitative and quantitative method of determination of amitryptilin, codeine and fluoxetine in the mixture using high-pressure liquid chromatography is described in this paper. Chromatogram is presented which shows, that preparations are fully separated and do not interfere each others analysis. Tables with chromatographical separation characteristics are also presented. Proposed calibration curves of quantitative analysis and calculated medium relative error of quantitative ascertainment for every preparation of the mixture are shown. Final conclusion: method is applicable for qualitative and quantitative analysis of amitryptiline, fluoxetine and codeine in the mixture in hasty poisoning cases.
