Abstract: Objective The aims of this study was to develop a population pharmacokinetic model to characterize the pharmacokinetics of Naoqingzhiming tablets (ingredient: echinacoside) following single and multiple doses in healthy Chinese subjects, and to identify covariates that might explain variability in exposure following oral administration. Methods Model development was achieved using data from a single- and multiple-dose studies. 1497 blood concentrations were available for population pharmacokinetics model. Population pharmacokinetic modelling was conducted using nonlinear mixed-effects modelling (NONMEM) software to estimate population pharmacokinetic parameters. Results A two-compartment model with first order absorption and elimination was found to best describe the pharmacokinetics of Naoqingzhiming tablets. The final model included aspartate aminotransferase (AST) as a covariate on apparent volume of distribution (V/F). The final pharmacokinetic parameter estimates were apparent clearance, 2510L/h; apparent volume of distribution, 11200L; and lag time, 0.141h. Conclusion The population pharmacokinetic model for Naoqingzhiming tablets identified the relationship between pharmacokinetic parameters and covariates, apparent volume of distribution was related to aspartate aminotransferase.
