Investigators
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Participants should be healthy males and females
- •Age range from 21 to 50 years
- •(Broca-Index): within +-20% of their normal weight
- •In accordance with Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and local legislation all volunteers are supposed to give their written informed consent prior to admission to the study
- •As part of the screening (within 14 days before drug administration), each subject was to receive a complete medical examination (including blood pressure, pulse rate, medical history, documentation of demographics, inclusion/exclusion criteria and concomitant therapy) as well as a 12-lead Electrocardiogram (ECG) and a lung function test (Raw, SGaw). Moreover laboratory parameters (including drug screening, HBs-antigen (HBs-Ag), anti HBc-antibodies, anti HCV- antibodies and Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) test as well as pregnancy test for female subjects are to be determined
Exclusion Criteria
- •Any finding of the medical examination (including blood pressure, pulse rate and ECG) deviating from normal and of clinical relevance
- •Gastrointestinal, hepatic, renal, respiratory, cardiovascular, metabolic, immunological or hormonal disorders
- •Diseases of the central nervous system (such as epilepsy) or with psychiatric disorders or neurological disorders
- •History of orthostatic hypotension, fainting spells or blackouts
- •Chronic or relevant acute infections
- •History of allergy/hypersensitivity (including drug allergy) which is deemed relevant to the trial as judged by the investigator
- •Intake of a drug with a long half-life (\> 24 hours) within at least 1 month or less than ten half-lives of the respective drug before enrolment in the study (except substitution therapy regarding thyroid gland/or ovaries)
- •Use of any drugs which might influence the results of the trial within 1 week prior to administration or during the trial
- •Participation in another study with an investigational drug within two months prior to administration or during the trial
- •Smoker (\> 10 cigarettes or \> 3 cigars or \> 3 pipes/day)
