- Registration Number
- NCT05532332
- Lead Sponsor
- Future University in Egypt
- Brief Summary
To evaluate and compare the relative plasma bioavailability and therefore the bioequivalence of two different immediate release products each Fluoxetine 10 mg, after administering a single oral dose, to healthy adult subjects under fasting conditions.
- Detailed Description
Enrolled subjects were randomized in a two-phase, two-sequence, cross-over design to receive a single dose of the test product (T) or the reference product (R) at each phase, under fasting conditions, with a wash-out period of 21 days.
Fluoxetine plasma concentrations were determined using a validated LC-MS-MS method, followed by Pharmacokinetics, and statistical analysis using Phoenix WinNonlin® software to determine the average bioequivalence.

Group Intervention Description Reference Product (R) Prozac® 10 mg capsules subjects were administered a single hard gelatin capsule of 10 mg Fluoxetine with approximately 240 ml water after an overnight fast of 10 hours Test Product (T) Fluoxetine 10 mg capsules subjects were administered a single hard gelatin capsule of 10 mg Fluoxetine with approximately 240 ml water after an overnight fast of 10 hours
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) (Pre-dose) and at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 72 hours Cmax is observed as the maximum of Fluoxetine peak concentration
Truncated area under the plasma concentration curve from administration to last observed (AUC 0-72h) (Pre-dose) and at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 72 hours The AUC (0-72h) is the area under the Fluoxetine plasma concentration with time curve from the time of dosing to the 72-hour sample
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Maximum time (Tmax) (Pre-dose) and at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 10, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 72 hours Time until Cmax is reached
