  16. Subjects with refractory hypertension or a history of refractory hypertension before randomization.

  17. Combined drugs:

(1) Subjects who allergic to or contraindicated with bupivacaine, other amide local anesthetics, and other drugs that may be used during the trial (e.g., propofol, remazolam, opioids, etc.).

(2) Subjects who used any of the following drugs within 5 drug half-lives prior before randomization (drug half-lives are based on actual drug instructions, or at least 48 hours of elution if half-lives are unknown):

  • Class III antiarrhythmic drugs such as amiodarone.

  • Drugs that affect liver metabolism: strong CYP1A2 inhibitors such as ciprofloxacin, enoxacin, fluvoxamine; CYP1A2 substrates: such as theophylline, imipramine; Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors such as voriconazole, ketoconazole, Ritonavir; CYP3A4 substrates such as darunavir, Indinavir, saquinavir; Strong CYP3A4 inducers such as rifampin.

  • Intravenous or oral corticosteroids.

  • Sedative drugs: benzodiazepines (such as diazepam, flurazepam, oxazepam, cloazepine, triazolam, alprazolam, esazolam, midazolam, etc.), barbiturates, carbamazepine, phenytoin, magnesium sulfate, chloral hydrate, etc..

  • Pain relief and other drugs: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (aspirin is permitted for the prevention of cardiovascular events, provided it is used steadily for at least 30 days prior to randomization, Daily dose ≤100mg/ day), opioid agonists/antagonists, central alpha-adrenergic agonists (e.g. Clonidine, dexmedetomidine), anticonvulsants (e.g. Carbamazepine, pregabalin, gabapentin), antidepressants (e.g. Tricyclic, selective 5-HT reuptake inhibitors).

    1. Others:
    2. Subjects had a history of substance abuse, drug use, and/or alcohol abuse within the 1 year prior to randomization, with alcohol abuse defined as drinking an average of more than 2 units of alcohol per day (1 unit =360mL beer or 45mL liquor with 40% alcohol or 150 ml wine); Or consume alcoholic food or drink within 24 hours before receiving the study drug.
    3. Subjects consumed excessive amounts of tea, coffee, grapefruit/grapefruit juice, grapefruit juice, caffeinated beverages (averaging more than 8 cups per day, 200 mL per cup) in the 14 days prior to randomization.
    4. Female subjects who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
    5. Subjects who have planned to have children within 30 days prior to the screening period and have planned to have children within six months from the date of signing the informed consent to the last use of the investigational drug and are unwilling or unable to use effective contraception.
    6. Subjects who have participated in other clinical trials as subjects, and/or previously received investigational drug or device in this clinical trial within the 3 months prior to randomization.
    7. Subjects who have any other factors deemed unsuitable for participation in this trial by the investigator.
