PK and DPK of Lidocaine Dermal Products

Evaluation of Bioavailability of Lidocaine Dermal Products

This is a bioequivalence study to compare lidocaine release between a brand name and generic skin patches in healthy adults.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Heat Effect
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: Lidocaine patch

Detailed Description
