In this study, electrochemical behaviour of valsartan (VSN), an agent used for the treatment of hypertension
and VSN-serum protein binding affecting the activity, distribution, excretion, and toxicity of pharmaceutical
agents in the body were investigated on glassy carbon electrode by using voltammetric methods. Furthermore,
adsorptive stripping methods were developed for the direct determination of the same agent in pharmaceutical
preparations and human urine samples. The results were also compared with those obtained by a standard
method based on UV absorption and the discrepancies were found to be insignificant at 95 % confidence
