Procainamide depleted tablets not a cause of death.

Abstract:

:Sixteen apparently intact procainamide tablets, in varied stages of drug depletion, were found distributed throughout the gastrointestinal tract of a man who died of arteriosclerotic heart disease with pulmonary complications. The tablets were found to contain procainamide by a thin layer chromatography system with cataloged compound identification characteristics. The drug was confirmed by ultraviolet spectrophotometry and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The concentration of the drug in the liver was in a therapeutic range and the drug was not attributed as contributing to the cause of death.
