Brief Summary

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

The objective of this present study was to investigate whether Glufor® 500 (metformin hydrochloride 500 mg) film-coated tablets manufactured by PT. Pyridam Farma Tbk is bioequivalent to its reference product, Glucophage® 500 mg film-coated tablets manufactured by PT. Merck Tbk, Indonesia under licensed Merck Sante SAS, France.

Detailed Description

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

Twenty-four subjects were given a single dose of 500 mg Metformin film-coated tablet of either formulation (test or reference) with 240 mL of a 20% glucose solution in water.

Glufor® 500 mg film-coated tablet

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Metformin Hydrochloride 500 MG

Intervention Type DRUG

Metformin is an antihyperglycemic drug used in the management of type-2 diabetes. Metformin hydrochloride improves glucose tolerance in patients with type 2 diabetes, lowering both basal and postprandial plasma glucose. Metformin decreases hepatic glucose production, decreases intestinal absorption of glucose and improves insulin sensitivity by increasing peripheral glucose uptake and utilization.

Glucophage® 500 mg film-coated tablet

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR
