Simultaneous separation and rapid determination of spironolactone and its metabolite canrenone in different pharmaceutical formulations and urinary matrices by capillary zone electrophoresis

The aim of this study was to develop a novel, sensitive, precise, simple, and rapid capillary zone electrophoresis method for the quality control of spironolactone in three different formulation types and a rapid simultaneous determination of the content of spironolactone and canrenone in urine samples using fluocinonide as an internal standard. After optimization of separation conditions, the electrolyte solution was the pH 5.5, 20 mM phosphate...
