    Abstract Purpose: Lidocaine (LID) is a local anesthetic that is administered either by injection and/or a topical/transdermal route. However, there is a current need to develop efficacious methods for the oral delivery of LID with optimized bioavailability.
    Methods: We developed oral LID biodegradable microspheres that were loaded with alginate-chitosan with different mass ratios, and characterized these microspheres in vitro. We also developed, and utilized, a simple and sensitive HPLC-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS-MS) method for assaying LID microspheres.
    Results: The mean particle size (MPS) of the LID microspheres ranged from 340.7 to 528.3 nm. As the concentration of alginate was reduced, there was a significant reduction in MPS. However, there was no significant change in drug entrapment efficiency (DEE), or drug yield, when the alginate concentration was either increased or decreased. DSC measurements demonstrated the successful loading of LID to the new formulations. After a slow initial release, less than 10% of the LID was released in vitro within 4 h at pH 1.2. In order to evaluate nephrotoxicity, we carried out MTT assays of LID in two types of cell line (LLC-PK1 and MDCK). LID significantly suppressed the cell toxicity of both cell lines at the concentrations tested (100, 200, and 400ng/µL).
    Conclusion: Experiments involving the oral delivery of LID formulations showed a significant reduction in particle size and an improvement in dissolution rate. The formulations of LID developed exhibit significantly less toxicity than LID alone.

    Abstract Objective: Metformin (MET), an oral biguanide agent, can improve insulin resistance and decrease hepatic glucose production, leading to a reduction in blood-sugar levels. The objective of the present study was to develop and validate simple and rapid LC-MS/MS method for analysis of MET in dried blood spot (DBS) sample for patient monitoring studies purposes (drug adherence).
    Methods: The chromatographic separation was achieved with Waters HSS-T3 column using gradient elution of mobile phases of two solvents: 1) solvent A, consisted of 10mM ammonium formate, 0.2% formic acid 1%; and 2) acetonitrile solvent B, contained 0.2% formic acid in acetonitrile at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min. The total run time was 3.0 min. The effectiveness of chromatographic conditions was optimized, and afatinib was used as the internal standard. The assay method was validated using USP 26 and the ICH guidelines.
    Results: The method showed good linearity in the range 8-48 ng/mL for MET with correlation coefficient (
    Conclusion: This method has successfully fulfilled all validation requirements referring to EMA and FDA guidelines, and successfully can be applied for MET adherence study. All the six studied patients were approved to metformin adherence.
