- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The endpoint expected on safety protocols is a non-significant change on activity of citochrome P450 enzymes or P-glycoprotein. The statistical approach for the analysis of potential interaction between propolis extract-fexofenadine will be based on geometrical mean ratio of the observed pharmacokinetic measures for fexofenadine with and without the propolis extract (EPP-AF). The conclusion of non-interaction will be done if the CI90% for log AUC ratio or log Cmax ratio of fexofenadine obtained with or without EPP-AF lies on 0.80 to 1.25 interval to AUC and 0.70 to 1.43 to Cmax. <br>For citochrome P450 interaction the same strategy will be done, using CI90% for AUC, metabolic ratio or clearance according the probe (drug) used. <br>For efficacy protocol the endpoint is set as a reduction of at least 50% from baseline urinary Prostaglandin E2 excretion with the use of higher doses of propolis extract (EPP-AF)
