Article Synopsis
  • A novel and eco-friendly HPTLC method has been created to measure duloxetine (DLX) and tadalafil (TDL), which is beneficial for treating depression and sexual issues in patients.
  • The method uses a specific stationary phase and mobile phase for effective separation, allowing for precise quantification of both drugs in pure forms and human plasma with very low detection limits.
  • Validation of the method followed international guidelines, and its environmental impact was evaluated using several green chemistry assessment tools, confirming its sustainability and practicality.

A novel antipsychotic medication named brexpiprazole (BRX) is currently employed for the treatment of schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders. Because BRX's molecular structure includes a benzothiophene ring, it natively fluoresces. To detect BRX with precision and speed, a flow injection-fluorometric method, which is both sensitive and selective, is recommended.

Vilazodone is a recently approved antidepressant medicine used for treating major depressive disorder. A simple, extremely sensitive, accurate and green spectrofluorimetric method was constructed for its determination through formation of ion-pair complex with erythrosine B. The formation of ion-pair complex lowers the dye's native fluorescence emission measured at 552 nm (λ ex = 530 nm).

A green-complied spectrofluorimetric approach for quantification of the antidepressant, fluvoxamine, has been established. The method that has been suggested relies on the development of an association complex between fluvoxamine and erythrosine B in an acetate buffer solution. After being excited at 530 nm, the quenching in erythrosine B's native fluorescence caused by complex formation with fluvoxamine was detected at a wavelength of 552 nm.

Brexpiprazole (BRX) is a new antipsychotic drug that recently was used in the treatment of schizophrenia and other psychosis. The presence of benzothiophene ring in its chemical structure makes BRX naturally fluoresces. However, the native fluorescence of the drug was low in neutral or alkaline medium owing to the occurrence of photoinduced electron transfer (PET) from the nitrogen of the piperazine ring to the benzothiophene ring.
