ABSTRACT
This article aims to assess the bioequivalence of the test and the reference metformin hydrochloride tablets in healthy Chinese volunteers under fasting and fed conditions and to explore the effect of food on the pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles of both formulations. In total, 56 healthy Chinese subjects (28 in each group) were enrolled in this randomized, open, single-center, single-dose, 2-treatment, 2-sequence, 2-cycle cross clinical trial. The subjects were administrated a single dose of the test and the reference tablets at 0.25 g with a 7-day washout. Venous blood samples of all subjects were taken from predose 0 hour to postdose 24 hours according to the planned times. PK parameters for metformin were analyzed and calculated with noncompartmental methods. There were no significant differences in the PK parameters between the 2 formulations under both the fasting and the fed states. The 90% confidence intervals of 2 formulations were within 80.00%-125.00% based on Cmax , AUC0-t , and AUC0-∞ under both conditions. High-fat and high-calorie diets delayed the Tmax and reduced the AUC0-t and AUC0-∞ . No severe adverse events occurred in this study. Two metformin hydrochloride tablets were bioequivalent under both fasting and fed states; the high-fat and high-calorie diet could lower the rate and extent of absorption of metformin in healthy Chinese volunteers.
