Voltammetry in the pharmaceutical analysis: A review

Abstract

Due to its sensitivity, selectivity, simplicity and costeffectiveness, the role of electrochemical analysis methods increases from year to year. This also applies to the use of various voltammetry options in the analysis of medicines. This mini-review is devoted to the analytical capabilities of cyclic voltammetry used in manufacturing technologies and clinical diagnostics of antihypertensive drugs. The main goal pursued by the authors of this article is to attract the attention of specialists to the problem of analytical control of medicines, and, first of all, antihypertensive drugs, using methods of voltammetric analysis. According to the authors, this will allow a deeper understanding of the cause of hypertension and the subsequent eradication of this disease, which will certainly affect the duration of a healthy human life.
