Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study looks to describe the pharmacokinetics of curcumin delivered as a single oral dose in healthy female volunteers. The impact of piperine and silybin on the pharmacokinetics of curcumin is also studied.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Healthy volunteers are seen on three separate visits and receive 4 gm of curcumin as a single oral dose either alone or with piperine or with silybin. Serial timed blood draws then are collected for pharmacokinetic analysis.
