A molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was synthesized and applied as additive within a carbon paste electrode for the cyclic voltammetric determination of famciclovir (FCV). Complementary computational studies were performed to study the intermolecular interactions in the pre-polymerization mixture. Derived from the computational studies, four MIP ratios were synthesized and their performance was evaluated using equilibrium rebinding assays. The MIP with the highest binding capacity was selected. A linear response was obtained in the range of 2.5×10−6–1.0×10−3M with a limit of detection at 7.5×10−7M. Finally, the developed MIP–voltammetry system was successfully applied for the determination of FCV in pure solutions and pharmaceutical preparations.
