Remarks The pharmacokinetics and safety of ginsenoside Rd (Rd) were assessed in healthy Chinese volunteers. In the single dose study, a randomized, open-label, 3-way crossover design was used. Participants were assigned to receive 10, 45, or 75 mg Rd by intravenous infusion, with a 2-week washout period between dosing periods. Plasma levels of Rd were
found to be proportional to dose, with the mean Cmax and AUC0–∞ ranging from 2.8 to 19.3 mg/L and 27.9 to 212.5 mg⋅h/L over the dose range studied. Ginsenoside Rd was slowly cleared from plasma (t1/2Z = 17.7-19.3 h). In the multiple-dose study, 10 mg Rd was administered once daily for 6 days. Slight drug accumulation was noted. The mean steady-state Cmax, AUC0–∞, and AUCss were 4.0 mg/L, 51.7 mg⋅h/L, and 26.4 mg⋅h/L, respectively. The t1/2Z was 20.5 h, which was similar to the single-dose value.
