Assessment of the Pharmacokinetics of a Sustained Release Formulation of a Tramadol/Acetaminophen Combination

April 29, 2021 updated by: Yungjin Pharm. Co., Ltd.

Clinical Trial to Compare the Pharmacokinetics Profile of YJAT Sustained Release Tablet and ULTRACET® Immediate Release Tablet After Oral Administration to Healthy Male Subjects

  1. Objective: To evaluate the pharmacokinetic profiles of an SR 75 mg tramadol/650 mg acetaminophen formulation compared with an immediate release (IR) 37.5 mg tramadol/325 mg acetaminophen formulation after a single dose and at steady state
  2. Subjects: Healthy subject
  3. Methods: A phase I study to evaluate the pharmacokinetic sustained release and immediate release treatment profiles at steady state.
