First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tested whether an oral suspension of edaravone works as well as the intravenous (IV) form in 42 healthy Japanese adults. Participants received a single dose of each version, and researchers measured drug levels in the blood to compare them. The goal was to see if the oral form could be a suitable alternative to the IV form, but this trial did not involve any disease treatment.
