It attempts to simplify the standard procedures in a step-wise manner, which can be of handy reference for the forensic toxicologist.This article is in continuation of Screening/spot/colour test of anti-depresents, Journal of Forensic Chemistry and Toxicology, Volume 2 Number 1,January – june 2016.
