  • Title: A carpipramine related fatality.
    Author: Fraser AD, Isner AF.
    Journal: J Forensic Sci; 1987 Jul; 32(4):1103-8. PubMed ID: 3612066.
    Abstract:
    A fatality following ingestion of the tricyclic antidepressant carpipramine (Prazinil) and ethyl alcohol is described. Carpipramine was quantitated by high performance liquid chromatography. The concentration of carpipramine was 2.0 mg/L in blood and 0.44 mg/L in urine. Ethyl alcohol was measured by headspace gas chromatography and found to be 105 mg/dL in blood and 55 mg/dL in the urine. Quantitative analysis of stomach contents was positive for carpipramine by thin-layer chromatography. To our knowledge, this is the first reported fatality involving carpipramine.
