Randomization description
At first, all of the volunteers are evaluated for meeting inclusion criteria, selecting the final participants. Each volunteer is randomly assigned to a number between 1 and 24 using simple randomization, receiving an identification card containing the assigned number. Next, at first study period, volunteers with even numbers will receive the reference drug and volunteers with odd numbers will receive the test drug. In the second period, the formulations are switched in a cross-over design. The formulation assignment to the subjects is done randomly, with the participants and the trial staff not aware the formulation administered, thus, providing the blinding situation for all stages of the study.
