Brief Summary  

The Sponsor has developed the test formulation. This study is being conducted to compare the bioavailability and characterise the pharmacokinetic profile of the Sponsor’s formulation (Quetiapine film coated tablets 300 mg) with respect to the reference formulation (Seroquel® film coated 300 mg tablets) in Schizophrenic patients under fasting conditions stabilized on Quetiapine 600 mg per day and to assess the bioequivalence. The study is being conducted on schizophrenic patients who are on a stable dose of quetiapine, and the patients cannot be deprived of the quetiapine treatment during the washout period of the study. Hence, the study has been planned to be a continuous administration of the test and the reference formulation without any intervening washout period.
