A Bioequivalence Study of Two Different Formulations of Olmesartan Medoxomil/ Hydrochlorothiazide After a Single Oral Dose Administration Under Fasting Conditions

This single dose study was designed in accordance with EMA (the European Medicines Agency) regulatory guidelines, with the aim of characterizing the bioavailability of olmesartan medoxomil/ hydrochlorothiazide in the two formulations (Olmesartan Medoxomil/ Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ), 40 mg/ 25 mg film-coated tablets (Manufacturer: Pharmtechnology LLC, Republic of Belarus) and Olmetec Plus® (Olmesartan Medoxomil/ Hydrochlorothiazide), 40 mg/25 mg film-coated tablets, (Manufacturer: Daiichi Sankyo Europe GmbH, Germany)) in healthy subjects. As this is a bioequivalence trial where each subject received each study treatment in a crossover fashion, a control group was not included. Within the clinical portion of the study each subject received a single oral dose of the test and the reference formulation in compliance with the generated randomization code. The primary study endpoints were the pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters Cmax and AUC0-t of olmesartan and hydrochlorothiazide.
