“…1) is an α 1 -adrenoreceptor antagonist used for the treatment of patients with symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia and hypertension (Fulton et al, 1995;Lepor et al, 1997;Chung et al, 1999). Several methods have been described for the determination of doxazosin in human plasma (Fouda et al, 1988;Cowlishaw and Sharman, 1985;Jackman et al, 1991). Owing to the quinazoline structure, most of published assays for doxazosin and its members, prazosin, terazosin alfuzosin and tamsulosin, have been based on a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system with fluorescence detector (Cowlishaw and Sharman, 1985;Guinebault et al, 1986;Fouda et al, 1988;Jackman et al, 1991;Sekhar et al, 1998;Cheah et al, 2000;Macek et al, 2004).…”
