1. Healthy Thai male or female subjects between the ages of 18 to 55 years.
2. Body mass index between 18.0 to 30.0 kg/m2.
3. Non-alcoholic, never drink alcohol and/or non-consumer of alcohol containing products
4. Normal laboratory values, including vital signs and physical examination, for all parameters in clinical laboratory tests at screening.
Any abnormalities from the normal or reference range will be carefully considered clinically relevant by the physician as individual cases, documented in study files prior to enrolling the subject in this study.
5. Non-pregnant woman (negative pregnancy test) and not currently breast feeding.
6. Female subjects abstain from either hormonal methods of contraception (including oral or transdermal contraceptives, injectable progesterone, progestin subdermal implants, progesterone-releasing IUDs, postcoital contraceptive methods) or hormone replacement therapy for at least 28 days prior to admission in Period 1. Injectable contraceptives e.g. Depo-Provera® will be discontinued at least 6 months prior to admission in Period 1. Subjects agree to use acceptable non-hormonal contraceptive methods such as condom, diaphragm, foams, jellies, or abstinence for at least 14 days prior to admission in Period 1 until 7 days after the end of study in Period 2. Female subjects of non-childbearing potential must meet at least one of the following criteria prior to admission in Period 1:
ï‚· Postmenopausal for at least 1 year or
ï‚· Surgically sterile (bilateral tubal ligation, bilateral oophorectomy or hysterectomy) at least 6 months.
7. Male subjects who are willing or able to use effective contraceptive e.g. condom or abstinence after admission in Period 1 until 7 days after the end of study in Period 2.
8. Have voluntarily given written informed consent (signed and dated) by the subject prior to participating in this study.
1. History of allergic reaction or hypersensitivity to pioglitazone, metformin or other component of pioglitazone and metformin combination
2. History or evidence of clinically significant renal, hepatic, gastrointestinal, hematological (e.g. anemia), endocrine (e.g. thyroid), pulmonary or respiratory (e.g. asthma), cardiovascular (e.g. coronary artery disease, myocardial infraction, heart failure), psychiatric, neurologic (e.g. convulsion), allergic disease (including drug allergies, but excluding untreated, asymptomatic, seasonal allergies at time of dosing) or any significant ongoing chronic medical illness
3. Have high risk for coronavirus infection based on risk assessment questionnaire or diagnosed as confirmed case of COVID-19
4. History or evidence of ischaemic heart disease, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure or atherosclerotic disease
5. History or evidence of gout
6. History or evidence of Lesch-Nyhan syndrome
7. History or evidence of thyroid disorders
8. History or evidence of organ transplant
9. History of problems with swallowing tablet or capsule
10. History or evidence of galactose intolerance, the Lapp lactase deficiency or glucose-galactose malabsorption
11. History of sensitivity to heparin or heparin-induced thrombocytopenia
12. History of preceding diarrhea or vomiting within 24 hours prior to admission in each period
13. Any condition possibly affecting drug absorption e.g. gastrectomy, enterectomy, gastritis or duodenal or gastric ulceration other than appendectomy
14. History or evidence of drug addict or investigation with urine sample shows a positive test for drug of abuse (morphine, marijuana or methamphetamine)
15. Investigation with blood sample shows hyperuricaemia, a serum urate level greater than 6.0 mg/dL in women and 7.0 mg/dL in men at screening laboratory test.
16. 12-lead ECG demonstrating QTc >450 msec, a QRS interval >120 msec or with an abnormality considered clinically significant at screening. If QTc exceeds 450 msec, or QRS exceeds 120 msec, the ECG will be repeated two more times and the average of the three QTc or QRS values will be used to determine the subject’s eligibility.
17. Investigation with blood sample shows positive test for HBsAg.
18. Abnormal liver function, ≥ 1.5 times of upper normal limit of reference range for ALT, AST or bilirubin levels at screening laboratory test
19. Have renal creatinine clearance (Clcr) <30 mL/min based on serum creatinine results, using glomerular filtration rate (GFR; Cockcroft-Gault formula), at the screening laboratory test.
20. History or evidence of habitual use of tobacco or nicotine containing products and cannot abstain for at least 48 hours prior to check-in in Period 1and continued for entire duration of the study.
21. History or evidence of alcoholism or harmful use of alcohol (less than 2 years) i.e., alcohol consumption of more than 14 standard drinks per week for men and 7 standard drinks per week for women (A standard drink is defined as 360 mL of beer or 150 mL of wine or 45 mL of 40% distilled spirits, such as rum, whisky, brandy etc.)
