NCT ID: NCT01253187
Last Updated: 2013-08-07

Participant Flow
Healthy young women, aged 18 - 38 years inclusive, who were nonsmokers were enrolled from 20 October 2006 to 13 September 2007 at one center in Germany.
77 female volunteers were screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria to determine that the volunteer was in a good state of health and appropriate for inclusion in the study, and 44 volunteers were randomized at one center.

Timeframe: up to 72 hours after administrationPopulation: Note that not all samples were evaluable for each outcome measure. Therefore the number of participants analyzed not necessarily matches the number of completers.
The AUC is a measure of systemic drug exposure, which is obtained by collecting a series of blood samples and measuring the concentrations of drug in each sample
