نبذة مختصرة : A liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS-MS) method was developed for 25 antipsychotic drugs and their metabolite in urine for monitoring medication compliance of mentally disordered criminals on probation. Target compounds were extracted with a solid-phase extraction technique using a newly developed hydrophilic-lipophilic balanced sorbent to remove interferences and minimize the matrix effect (ME). Extracted sample was injected into the LC–MS-MS with an electrospray ionization source in positive mode and multiple-reaction monitoring mode. The analytes were separated and detected within 10 minutes using a reversed-phase column with a gradient elution method using 0.1% formic acid in water and 0.1% formic acid in methanol as mobile phase. The validation parameters were evaluated as follows: selectivity, limit of detection, lower limit of quantification (LLOQ), linearity, accuracy and precision, stability, dilution integrity, recovery (RE), ME and process efficiency (PE). The LLOQs were 0.1 to 2.0 ng/mL, and determination coefficients of the calibration curve were above 0.9943 over the concentration ranges. The intra-and inter-day accuracy ranged from −10.4% to 9.9% and from −9.6% to 9.4%, while the intra-and inter-day precision were within 10.7% and 9.9%. The bench-top and long-term stability ranged from 92.1% to 109.5% and 88.7% to 111.6%, respectively. The reproducibility of auto-sampler stability was
