About this study

The study was conducted as an open-label, balanced, randomized, two-treatment, two-period, two-sequence, single-dose, crossover, bioavailability study comparing famotidine tablets, USP 20 mg manufactured by OHM Laboratories with Pepcid® AC Acid reducer famotidine tablets 20 mg (containing famotidine 20 mg) distributed by Johnson \& Johnson. Merck Consumer Pharmaceutical Co. Fort Washington, PA 19034 USA under fed conditions.

Read the detailed description

Following an overnight fast of at least 10 hours, all subjects were served a high-fat high-calorie breakfast. Thirty minutes after the start of the breakfast, subjects were administered a single oral dose of famotidine tablets, USP 20 mg or Pepcid® AC Acid reducer famotidine tablets 20 mg (containing famotidine 20 mg) under low-light condition during each period of the study, along with 240 mL of drinking water at ambient temperature and under supervision of trained study personnel.

During the course of the study, safety parameters assessed were vital signs, clinical examination, medical history and clinical laboratory safety tests (hematology, biochemical parameters, serology and urine analysis) at baseline. Adverse event monitoring was done throughout the study. Laboratory parameters of hematology and biochemistry (except blood glucose and cholesterol) were repeated at the end of the study for all the subjects.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Bioequivalence evaluation of ranbaxy famotidine tablets 20mg with Pepcid® AC Acid reducer famotidine tablets 20 mg under fed condition. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
