"which one is the most suitable extraction method (from Plasma) for a drug", how to decide it.. and whether there is a general rule for selecting a method or starting???

If I use Waters SPE (Oasis), I always check this.

If you register Waters Web site, you can check more sample extraction examples.

I suppose it's what you're interested in, If you're after a very sensitive method with a very low limit of detection, even if it takes ages then I'd look at Liquid Liquid extraction. If you want high throuput then look at Turboflow first, then SPE. If you want something that's quick to develop and gives acceptable results then try Protein Crash in organic solvent followed by centrifugation.

Check out some of these (and other) papers in the area;

Xu, R. N., Fan, L., Rieser, M. J., & El Shourbagy, T. A. 2007, "Recent advances in high-throughput quantitative bioanalysis by LC-MS/MS", Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis, vol. 44, no. 2, pp. 342-355.
Zimmer, D., Pickard, V., Czembor, W., & Muller, C. 1999, "Comparison of turbulent-flow chromatography with automated solid-phase extraction in 96-well plates and liquid-liquid extraction used as plasma sample preparation techniques for liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry", Journal of Chromatography, vol. A.. 854, no. 1-2, pp. 23-35.
Herman, J. L. 2002, "Generic method for on-line extraction of drug substances in the presence of biological matrices using turbulent flow chromatography", Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, vol. 16, no. 5, pp. 421-426.

Just my two cents....
