Participant Flow

The study was conducted on 32 adult healthy male participants, aged between 18 and 45 years, at a single site of India from 9 May 2012 to 18 May 2012. During each study period participants received test (treatment T-Metformin tablet) and reference (treatment R-Glucophage® tablet) products.

A total of 32 participants were randomized in the period I to receive test (treatment T-Metformin 500 milligram \[mg\] tablet) or reference (treatment R-Glucophage 500 mg tablet).

Population: PK population. Data is presented for the participants available at the time of assessment.

Plasma samples for PK analysis were drawn at indicated time points of each treatment period. AUC0-t was calculated by the linear trapezoidal rule from measured data points from time of administration until the time of last quantifiable concentration. AUC0- infinity was estimated by linear trapezoidal rule and was sum of the AUC0-t and extrapolated to infinity by dividing the estimated last measurable plasma concentration by elimination rate constant. The AUC0- infinity was the sum of the estimated and extrapolated parts.
