Brief Summary

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

This is a Dental Pain Study which will evaluate the analgesic onset, efficacy and safety of 1000 mg acetaminophen as two Test acetaminophen 500 mg tablets, compared with commercial products of acetaminophen 1000 mg administered as two 500 mg caplets, and ibuprofen (IBU) 400 mg following third molar (wisdom tooth) extraction.

Detailed Description

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

This is a single-dose, randomized, double-blind, triple-dummy, placebo- and active controlled, parallel-group study to evaluate the analgesic onset, efficacy, and safety profile of Test acetaminophen 1000 mg compared with two commercial products over a six-hour period after third-molar extractions. Subjects will undergo dental extraction of three or four third molars.
