Use these resources to provide understandable information about this study to patients, families, and health care providers:This study is a multi-center, non-randomized, open-label, parallel-group, multiple-dose Phase I clinical trial evaluating the pharmacokinetic characteristics of ammoxetine hydrochloride enteric-coated tablets in participants with mild hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class A), moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh Class B), and participants with normal liver function who are matched for age, weight, and gender. Participants in all groups receive 20 mg of ammoxetine hydrochloride enteric-coated tablets daily at 1 hour after meals, from day 1 to day 6. Blood samples for pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis, and safety parameters are collected before and after dosing according to the trial protocol.

Participants and their partners must use effective contraception (e.g., condoms, inert intrauterine devices, etc.) from 2 weeks prior to screening until 6 months after the end of the study, unless they have already undergone permanent sterilization procedures, such as bilateral tubal ligation or vasectomy; furthermore, they must not donate sperm or eggs. 5. Participants must have not taken any medications within 2 weeks prior to screening, or must have been on a stable medication regimen for at least 4 weeks for the treatment of other comorbidities; 6. Participants who voluntarily sign the informed consent form and agree to cooperate in completing the trial according to the protocol. Exclusion Criteria: Participants meeting any of the following criteria will be excluded from this trial: 1. Individuals with a history of allergies (allergic to two or more drugs, foods, or pollens); 2. Individuals with major psychiatric disorders, renal disease, neurological disorders, or other systemic diseases that the investigator deems may affect trial results; 3.

Conditions include but are not limited to: heart failure; non-sustained or sustained ventricular tachycardia; sick sinus syndrome; or a family history of sudden death; 5.
