Pharmacokinetics of magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate after a single and multiple intravenous dose in healthy volunteers / 中国新药与临床杂志

ABSTRACT

AIM: To study the pharmacokinetics of magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate (MgIG),which was diluted by 5%glucose injection in a total volume of 250 mL, after a single and multiple intravenous dose in 10 healthy volunteers.　METHODS: MgIG 100 mg once daily for 9 d in the multiple-dose regiment. Plasma MgIG concentrations are measured using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Waters HPLC instrument was used with the Hypersil ODS2 C18 (5 μm, 300 mm×4.6 mm) column. The mobile phase was composed of 0.23 mol·L-1 phosphate buffer (pH=7.4)acetonitrile (79∶21).Flow rate was 1.0 mL·min-1 and column temperature was maintained at 40°C. The UV detector was set at 250 nm. The concentration time curves of MgIG were fitted to a two-compartment open model.　RESULTS: The pharmacokinetic parameters obtained from the single-dose study were as follows cmax=(29±s 4) mg·L-1;t(1)/(2)α=(1.72±0.27) h;t(1)/(2)α=(23±3) h and AUC0-72=(448±75) mg·h·L-1. The steady-state pharmacokinetic parameters were cssmin=(13±3) mg·L-1;cssmax=(42±6) mg·L-1;cav=(21±4) mg·L-1;t(1)/(2)α=(1.6±0.4) h;t(1)/(2)β=(24±4) h and AUCss0-24=(513±108) mg·h·L-1.CONCLUSION:The distribution and elimination rate of MgIG were not changed after multiple intravenous administration.
