소말겐 정(탈니플루메이트 370 mg)에 대한 플루탈 정의 생물학적동등성

Abstract

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the bioequivalence of two talniflumate tablets, SOMALGEN tablet (Kun Wha Pharm. Co., Ltd., Seoul, Korea, reference drug) and FLUTAL tablet (Kukje Pharm. Co., Ltd., Korea, test drug), according to the guidelines of Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA). Twenty-four healthy male Korean volunteers received two tablets at the talniflumate dose of 740 mg in a crossover study. There was a one-week washout period between the doses. Plasma concentrations of niflumic acid were monitored by an HPLC-UV for over a period of 14 hr after the administration. (the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to 14 hr) was calculated by the linear trapezoidal rule method. (maximum plasma drug concentration) and (time to reach ) were compiled from the plasma concentration-time data. Analysis of variance was carried out using logarithmically transformed , and untransformed . No significant sequence effect was found for all of the bioavailability parameters indicating that the crossover design was properly performed. The 90% confidence intervals of the , ratio and the ratio for SOMALGEN/FLUTAL were and , respectively. These values were within the acceptable bioequivalence intervals of . Taken together, our study demonstrated the bioequivalence of SOMALGEN and FLUTAL with respect to the rate and extent of absorption.
