NCT00934323

Brief Summary

The pharmacokinetics of glimepiride and metformin will be compared after single dose intake of both combinations in order to answer to the following questions:

  • Is there a dose proportionality effect between Amaryl M SR 1/500 mg and Amaryl M SR 2/500 mg?
  • What is the safety profile of Amaryl M SR 1/500 mg and Amaryl M SR 2/500 mg?
