Protocol summary

Study aim
Bioequivalence study of Carvedilol tablets of Shafa Pharmaceutical company with Coreg tablets of GSK company ( Germany)
Design
Bioequivalence study, Cross over, Double blinded, Random, in 24 healthy volunteers. Randomization was done by rand function of Excel software.
Settings and conduct
Sampling of volunteers is done in Kharazmi Plasma Center in Islamshahr. On the day of sampling, one 500 mg tablet of Carvedilol manufactured by Shafa or GSK on two occasions and with a washout period of 7 days, will be administered orally with 240 ml of water to the volunteers. For example, if in the first phase he received the medicine made by Shafa company, he will receive the brand medicine one week later.

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Using the rand function of the Excel software, the candidates are divided into two groups, and half of them will receive numbers 1-12 and get the test drug, and the other half will receive numbers 13-24 and will take the reference drug.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
The tablets of Shafa pharmaceutical and GSK are both oval shape and white, so the candidate does not know which company's drug he will receive in each phase of the study. Additionally, the tubes of the volunteers' samples are also coded, so the analyzer does not know which company's drug he is analyzing, so only the researcher and the prescriber know which company's drug is being prescribed.
