Brief summary

The study used a single-center, open, sequential single-dose design. To evaluate the pharmacokinetics and dose-exposure relationship of huperzine A injection

Detailed description

The study was divided into four modes of administration. Administration method of A: intravenous injection (non-blood collection arm), intravenous injection of 0.2mg huperzine A injection. B, C, D Administration methods: 0.1mg, 0.2mg, 0.4mg huperzine A injection was injected intramuscularly into the deltoid muscle of the upper arm (the arm on the non-blood collection side). In each cycle, after fasting for at least 10 hours, the subjects received different dosing regimens according to A sequential single dosing method, that is, each subject received dosing method A first, followed by dosing method B after the cleaning period, dosing method C after the cleaning period, and dosing method D after the cleaning period. The wash-out period between the two doses was 7 days for each subject. To evaluate the pharmacokinetics and dose-exposure relationship of huperzine A injection.
