Bioequivalence Study of Two Different Tablet Formulations of Carvedilol in Healthy Volunteers

Abstract

The 90 % CI values obtained for AUCinf, AUClast, and Cmax are within the interval proposed by the EMEA/CPMP and the FDA as bioequivalence acceptance criteria, and consequently it can be conclude that the test formulation is bioequivalent with the reference formulation both in terms of rate and extent of absorption after single dose administration. The results from a previous pilot study allowed an optimal design for this trial.
