Carbamazepine and carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide were separated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with acetonitrile-water as mobile phase, and detection was effected by UV absorption at 215 nm with a total retention time of less than 10 min. Plasma samples were extracted with dichloromethane and 4 M sodium hydroxide, and 10-methoxy-carbamazepine was added as internal standard. Other commonly used anticonvulsant drugs present in plasma showed no significant interference. The within-batch coefficient of variation for carbamazepine was 4.9% and carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide 5.9%. Between-batch coefficients of variation were 3.7% and 5.3%, respectively. Mean recovery for carbamazepine was 100.2% and for carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide 100.6%. This HPLC method was compared with both an enzyme immunoassay procedure (EMIT) and a gas-liquid chromatographic (GLC) method. Correlation coefficient between HPLC/EMIT for carbamazepine was 0.983, HPLC/GLC carbamazepine 0.988 and HPLC/GLC carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide 0.981.
