NCT03323593

Brief Summary

Intranasal dexmedetomidine has been studied and used in children for premedication before anaesthesia or fro sedation. It can be administered by simple dripping or by Mucosal Atomization Device (MAD®). Since MAD® delivers intranasal medication in a fine mist, it is possible that absorption and bioavailability would be better compares to simple dripping method. To date no pharmacokinetic information of intranasal dexmedetomidine delivered by either method is available. This investigation is designed to compare the bioavailablity of intranasal dexmedetomidine deliver via simple dipping with tuberculine syringe and MAD® in healthy adults.
