ABSTRACT
@#Reduning nasal sprays were prepared from Reduning injection to explore the pharmacokinetics of its nasal administration in rabbits. Healthy rabbits were divided into three groups: blank group, nasal administration group, and intravenous injection group. Plasma samples were pretreated using acetonitrite to precipitate proteins. High-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)was performed for the detection of chlorogenic acid. The results showed that chlorogenic acid was detected in the plasma samples of nasal administration group with the highest concentration occurring in 2-5 min after administration, which indicated that Reduning nasal sprays could be successfully absorbed from nasal mucosa and could rapidly metabolize in blood. Compared with intravenous injection group, nasal administration group had lower concentration of active ingredients, revealing that the transdermal absorption rate of Reduning nasal sprays requires further improvement.
