Abstract
Alimemazine, a phenothiazine derivative with the properties of antihistamines, was determined by a selective high-performance liquid chromatographic technique in blood and tissues from a postmortem case. The blood concentration of alimemazine was 6.52 micrograms/mL. The brain was the major site of drug deposition, and tissue distribution is discussed in light of the existing literature.
