July 27, 2015 updated by: Boehringer Ingelheim

Relative Bioavailability of a 12.5 mg BI 10773 / 1000 mg Metformin Fixed Dose Combination Tablet Compared With Its Monocomponents and Administered With and Without Food (an Open-label, Randomised, Single-dose, Three-way Crossover, Phase I Trial in Healthy Volunteers)

The objective of the current study is to determine the relative bioavailability of a BI 10773 / metformin fixed dose combination tablet compared to single tablets of BI 10773 and metformin when administered together and to assess the effect of food on the bioavailability the fixed dose combination tablet
