Single Dose Pharmacokinetics of Repaglinide, Metformin and Combination Tablet in Fed Healthy Volunteers

February 9, 2017 updated by: Novo Nordisk A/S

A Randomized, Single-Blind, Three-Period Crossover Study Examining the Single Dose Pharmacokinetics of Concomitantly Administered Repaglinide and Metformin Versus Combination Tablet Dosing (NN4440) in Fed Healthy Volunteers

This trial is conducted in the United States of America (USA). The aim of this trial is to compare repaglinide and metformin as co-administered tablets and as a combination tablet.
