Brief Summary

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

The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the bioavailability and therefore to assess the bioequivalence of two different formulations of metformin/sitagliptin after a single oral dose administration under fed conditions.
