    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    The objective of this study was to confirm if two formulations of escitalopram tablets are bioequivalent. Test product was escitalopram (10 mg; GlaxoSmithKline) and reference product Lexapro® (10 mg escitalopram; Lundbeck). The single dosage was one tablet. The study was prospective, open-label, randomized, crossover, single dose, with 02 treatments, 02 sequences and 02 periods, under fasting conditions. The population was composed of 26 healthy volunteers, male adults between 18-50 years. The comparative bioavailability of the two formulations was evaluated based in statistical comparisons of relevant pharmacokinetic parameters, obtained from data of drug concentrations in blood.
