Protocol summary

Study aim
This study will be performed to compare the pharmacokinetics and invivo parameters of Loratadine 10 mg Tablet formulation as a test product with Claritine 10 mg Tablet formulation as a reference product to evaluate the bioequivalence.
Design
Non blinded, randomized, crossover in vivo bioequivalence study in 24 healthy male under fasting condition. Block randomization for a treatment sequence of Test/Reference or Reference/Test will be used.
Settings and conduct
In each period, volunteers will receive a single dose intervention (1 or 2) in the Farabi Clinic (Eslamshahr, Tehran) according to a prepared block randomization schedule without blinding. 16 blood samples were collected during 72 hours post intervention. A 14-day washout interval separated 2 study periods.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Healthy subjects (male) between 20 – 45 years of age and Body Mass Index (BMI) within 15% of the normal range according to the accepted normal values between 18.5 and 30 (inclusive), calculated as kg/m2. Subjects with no significant diseases or clinically significant abnormal findings during screening, medical history, clinical examination; laboratory evaluations; known allergy to loratadine; history of hypertension.
