Abstract

The bioequivalence of famciclovir dispersible tablets and film-coated tablets was investigated with a randomized crossover design at a single oral dose of 250mg in 18 healthy male volunteers. The concentration of penci-clovir, the active metabolite in human plasma after administration of famciclovir, was determined by a HPLC method. The results showed that AUC0→8h and AUC0→∞ of the two preparations had no significant difference, Cmax of the disper-sible tablets increased and Tmax decreased. The relative bioavailability of dispersible tablets was(104.7±12.9)%. The results of two one-side t test showed that the two preparations were bioequivalent.
