Nicotine Patch Bioequivalence Study

December 10, 2012 updated by: Pierre Fabre Medicament

The purpose of this study is to compare the relative bioavailability of nicotine following single application of a new transdermal formulation to that of a reference formulation.

4 single 24hour applications separated by 48hour intervals.
