Official title: An Open Label, Balanced, Randomized, Two-treatment, Two-period, Two-sequence, Single-dose, Crossover, Bioavailability Study Comparing Acetaminophen 650 mg Extended Release Gelcaps of OHM Laboratories (a Subsidiary of Ranbaxy Pharmaceuticals Inc.), With Tylenol® Arthritis Pain Extended Release Caplets (Containing Acetaminophen 650 mg) of Mc Neil-PPC Inc., in Healthy, Adult, Human, Male Subjects Under Fasting Condition.

The study was conducted as an open labeled, balanced, randomized, two-treatment, two-period, two-sequence, single-dose, crossover, bioavailability study comparing acetaminophen extended release gelcaps 650 mg of OHM Laboratories Inc. with Tylenol® Arthritis Pain caplets 650 mg of McNeil Consumer \& Specialty Pharmaceuticals, in healthy, adult, human, male subjects under fasting condition.

Read the detailed description

Following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours, all subjects were administered a single oral dose of acetaminophen 650 mg extended release tablet was administered with 240 mL of drinking water during each period of the study under supervision of trained study personnel. Both test (T) and reference (R) products were administered to the study subjects, one in each period (except subject no 40).

During the course of the study, safety parameters assessed were vital signs, clinical examination, medical history and clinical laboratory safety tests (hematology, biochemical, serology parameters, urine analysis and urine drug screening) were measured at base line. Laboratory parameters of haematology and biochemistry (except glucose and cholesterol) were repeated at the end of the study.
