Bioavailability of tolperisone in human plasma using a simple HPLC.

We aimed at determining bioavailability of tolperisone, a muscle relaxant. and developing a simple analysis in human blood using HPLC. A rapid and snsitive HPLC method was developed and validated using reverse-phase C18 column with retention time and limit of quantification of toferisone being 7.3 min and 20 ng/$m\ell$, respectively. Quantification was performed at 260 nm with chlorphenesin as internal standard. (omitted)
