Comparison Study of a New Combination of 2 Marketed Medications (Esomeprazole and Naprosyn) Versus Naprosyn Alone

January 15, 2010 updated by: AstraZeneca

A Single Centre, Two Treatment, Two Period, Two Sequence, Randomized Crossover Steady-state Relative Bioavailability Study of Naproxen in Two Tablet Formulations Given Twice Daily (PN 400 Tablets Containing 500 mg of Naproxen Plus 20 mg of Esomeprazole Versus Naprosyn® Containing Naproxen 500 mg)

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the absorption of naproxen from the PN 400 combination (Naprosyn and Esomeprazole) tablets is similar to that from the naproxen tablets (Naprosyn®), which are currently sold in Australia.
