Brief Summary   An open label, balanced, randomized, two treatment, two sequence, twoperiod, crossover, single dose, oral bioequivalence study in healthy adult human subjects under fasting condition. The active ingredient of Cariprazine is cariprazine HCl, an atypical antipsychotic. The mechanism of action of cariprazine in schizophrenia and bipolar I disorder is unknown. However, the efficacy of cariprazine could be mediated through a combination of partial agonist activity at central dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-HT1A receptors and antagonist activity at serotonin 5-HT2A receptors. Cariprazine forms two major metabolites, desmethyl cariprazine (DCAR) and didesmethyl cariprazine (DDCAR), that have in vitro receptor binding profiles similar to the parent drug.
