About

This study is designed to assess bioequivalence between one test and one reference formulation used for temporary relief of pain. The results will help decide if the new medicine is likely to provide pain relief similar to the product being sold.

Full description

The study is a single dose, randomized, two-way crossover study in 32 healthy male and female volunteers, minimum of 14 of each gender. Two doses of study medication will be given as single doses on two separate treatment visits. A washout of at least 48 hours will separate the treatment visits. Each visit will include an overnight fast at the clinic and 19 blood samples drawn for pharmacokinetic analyses. Tolerability of the treatments will be evaluated in terms of reported and observed adverse events (AE).
