Brief summary

To evaluate azithromycin tear concentrations after one drop of azithromycin eyedrops (2.5ml/25mg) in healthy volunteers.

Detailed description

In this randomized, open, single-center study, 42 healthy volunteers will receive one drop of azithromycin into each eye. Azithromycin tear concentrations will be measured by LC-MS/MS at seven time points for 24 hours. Tolerability is evaluated.

Interventions

DRUGazithromycin eyedrop

Tear samples will be collected using the strips.

the maximum concentration (Cmax)The tear samples are taken at 7 time points after administration,including 10 minutes,half hour,2 hours,4 hours,8 hours,12 hours and 24hours.The tear samples are taken at 7 time points after administration up to 24 hours.The Cmax is calculated at the average concentration of each point.
area under the curve (AUC)The tear samples are taken at 7 time points after administration,including 10 minutes,half hour,2 hours,4 hours,8 hours,12 hours and 24hours.The tear samples are taken at 7 time points after administration up to 24 hours.The AUC is calculated at the average concentration of each point.
