A Two-Period, Two-Sequence, Two-Treatment, Single-Dose Crossover Study of Atropine Sulfate Ophthalmic Solution (1%) Administered Sublingually vs Atropine Sulfate Administered Intramuscularly for Bioequivalence Determination
In Brief
A Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating Atropine Sulfate Ophthalmic Solution USP, 1% and Atropine Sulfate Injection, USP 8 mg/20 mL (0.4 mg/mL) for Atropine Bioequivalence. Completed, enrolled 46 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
A randomized, two-period, two-sequence, crossover study to assess the bioequivalence, bioavailability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of a single dose of atropine administered sublingually (SL) or intramuscularly (IM) in healthy adult volunteers.

Timeline
Interventions
Atropine Sulfate Ophthalmic Solution, USP 1% manufactured by Bausch \& Lomb Americas Inc., is a sterile topical anti-muscarinic indicated for mydriasis, cycloplegia, and penalization of the healthy eye to treat amblyopia. Each mL of Atropine Sulfate Ophthalmic Solution USP, 1% contains the active ingredient atropine sulfate 10 mg, equivalent to 8.3 mg of atropine. Inactive ingredients are boric acid, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, and water for injection, USP; hydrochloric acid and/or sodium hydroxide may be added to adjust pH (3.5 to 6.0). Atropine Sulfate Ophthalmic Solution, USP 1% will be supplied in 0.4 mL single-dose vials and will be administered as a single dose to a single participant. 100 μL of Atropine Sulfate Ophthalmic Solution, USP 1% will be given sublingually by pipette to deliver 1.0 mg of atropine sulfate. Before administration, participants will be told to swallow. Once given, participants will be told to try not to swallow for 30 seconds and then swallow normally.
Atropine sulfate injection, USP is a muscarinic antagonist used for temporary blockade of severe/life-threatening muscarinic effects and to treat symptomatic bradycardia. Atropine Sulfate Injection, USP, 8 mg/20 mL (0.4 mg/mL) manufactured by Fresenius Kabi is a sterile, nonpyrogenic, isotonic, clear solution of atropine sulfate in water for injection with sodium chloride sufficient to render the solution isotonic. Each mL contains atropine sulfate, 0.4 mg; benzyl alcohol, 9 mg; and sodium chloride 9 mg; it may also contain sulfuric acid for pH adjustment, pH 3.5 (3.0 to 3.8). Atropine Sulfate Injection, USP will be supplied in 8 mg/20 mL multidose vials (0.4 mg/mL). Each vial will be used to administer multiple doses to multiple participants. 2.5 mL will be injected into the mid-anterolateral thigh to deliver 1.0 mg of atropine sulfate. Vials will be dated/timed and will not be given after 24 hours of first entry.
