Abstract:
Objective To investigate the pharmacokinetics of flumazenil sublingual spray in Beagle dogs. Methods Twelve Beagle dogs were grouped in a two-period, two-sequence crossover study design, receiving intravenous injection or sublingual spray administration. Blood samples (2 ml) were collected from the leg vein at 0.16, 0.33, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 4.0, 6.0 and 8.0 h post-dosing. The plasma concentration of flumazenil was quantified by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) with an internal standard method, and key pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated. Results The tmax values for flumazenil injection and sublingual spray were 0.17 h and (0.28±0.10) h, respectively; cmax values were (8.14±0.81) and (10.41±1.72) ng/ml; and AUC0–∞ values were (6.90±0.99) and (10.97±1.68)(ng·h)/ml. The bioavailability of the sublingual spray was (80.79±0.14)%. Conclusion Flumazenil sublingual spray demonstrated rapid absorption and high bioavailability in Beagle dogs.
