A GLC method, based on flame-ionization detection, was developed for the assay of methotrimeprazine and its sulfoxide in plasma. For a 6-ml aliquot, the sensitivity was 2-3 ng/ml for the unchanged drug and 4-5 ng/ml for the sulfoxide. The coefficient of variation, calculated from duplicate analyses of plasma samples, was 8-15% for concentrations between 10 and 100 ng/ml. Patients treated with orally administered methotrimeprazine had higher plasma levels of the sulfoxide than of unmetabolized drug. The method also was applied to the analysis of promazine and chlorpromazine in patient plasma.
The present study was carried out in an homogenous group of 49 untreated hypertensive patients, all aged 45 years. Diastolic blood pressure was equal to or greater than 110 mmHg in successive measurements; eleven patients were classified as WHO group II, and the others as WHO group I. An initial placebo period of 3 weeks was followed by cyclothiazide medication with a good response in 6 patients. The remaining patients were given either clonidine or practolol, and by adjustment of the dose a good response was obtained in 31 patients. In these cases the treatment was exchanged after 6 weeks. The antihypertensive effect of relatively small doses of clonidine was equal to that of practolol. Since completion of the study practolol has been withdrawn because of the emergence of long term toxic effects. In 12 cases, hydralazine had to be added to obtain a satisfactory response. Mild side-effects were common, especially at the beginning of clonidine treatment, but they did not necessitate discontinuation of treatment. Further comparative studies of clonidine and beta-blockers should be carried out and more experience with the combination of clonidine and vasodilators in the treatment of hypertension is necessary.

The solid inlet mass spectra of the N-oxide and N-oxide sulphoxide metabolites of promazine, chlorpromazine and methotrimeprazine have been determined at different temperatures and compared with the mass spectra of the main thermolytic product of the N-oxides and N-oxide sulphoxides obtained during combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Diagnostic ions were produced by direct insertion of the compounds at ambient temperature into the mass spectrometer. These ions distinguish the N-oxides of arylalkyl tertiary amines from the N-oxygenated derivatives of primary and secondary arylalkylamines.
