Brief Summary
|
42 number of healthy, adult, human subjects will be recruited to evaluate the bioequivalence of Test product with the Reference product As per the discretion of the Investigator, a sufficient number of stand-by subjects will be included additionally to ensure successful dosing of 42 subjects in period I alone. Note If needed the study will be conducted as batch wise. Demographic data, medical and medication history, physical examination, 12 lead ECG, haematology, biochemistry, serology, Serum Ferritin, Serum iron, urine routine analysis, additionally for females serum pregnancy test, hormone assay FSH will be done within 21 days and a chest X-ray within 06 months prior to check in In each period, subjects will be housed in the clinical facility for at least 11.00 hours pre-dose to 48.00 hours post-dose A washout period of at least 40 days will be maintained between each dosing period Subjects will be served dinner on the day of check-in for each period. Thereafter, subjects will fast for at least 10.00 hours prior to dosing Standard meals will be provided at 04.00, 08.00, 12.00, 24.00, 28.00, 32.00 and 36.00 hours post-dose respectively. All meal plans will be identical in all the periods of the study Blood pressure, radial pulse rate, body temperature, and wellbeing status will be enquired and recorded at pre-dose 00.00 hour (within 75 minutes of before dosing) and at 01.00, 04.00, 06.00, 08.00, 12.00 and 24.00 hours (± 60 minutes) post dose Physical examination and vitals will be recorded before check-in, check out (48.00 hours) for each period and at any time if necessary Monitoring for adverse events will be done throughout the study period in clinical phase |
