Brief Summary

This study is designed to assess bioequivalence between one test and two reference formulations used for treatment of headaches and temporary relief of pain.

Conditions

Pain

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration

  Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration (Cmax), which is the maximum (peak) concentration (amount of drug) measurable in blood plasma after a dose is administered, measured in nanograms/milliliter (ng/mL)

  During 12 hours post-dose

• Bioavailability [AUC(0-t)]

  Bioavailability \[AUC(0-t)\] is a measure of how much of the drug reaches the person's bloodstream within a given period of time for the body to use. The extent of product bioavailability is estimated by the area under the blood concentration vs time curve. The Area Under the Curve (AUC) is calculated by plotting the drug's blood levels on a graph at different times during the set period. The area under this curve reflects the amount of drug exposure in the set time period, calculated as hour \* nanograms (ng) per milliliter (mL).

  During 12 hours post-dose

Secondary Outcomes (4)

• Bioavailability Extrapolated to Infinity [AUC (0-∞)]

  12 hours post-dose

• Time of Maximum Concentration

  During 12 hours post-dose

• Terminal Elimination Rate Constant

  During 12 hours post-dose

• Terminal Phase Plasma Half-Life

  During 12 hours post-dose

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years - 55 Years
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: Yes
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

• Male or female subjects (equal numbers of males and females)
• Volunteers aged of at least 18 years but not older than 55 years
• Subjects will have a Body Mass Index (BMI) greater than or equal to 18.5 and below 30 kg/m2; and a total body weight \>50 kg
• Non- or ex-smokers; an ex-smoker being defined as someone who completely stopped smoking for at least 12 months before day 1 of this study.
• Clinical laboratory values within the laboratory's stated normal range; if not within this range, they must be without any clinical significance
• Have no clinically significant diseases captured in the medical history or evidence of clinically significant findings on physical examination and/or clinical laboratory evaluations (hematology, biochemistry, ECG and urinalysis)
• Has signed and dated the informed consent document, indicating that the subject has been informed of all pertinent aspects of the study
• Willingness and ability to comply with scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, and other study procedures

You may not qualify if:

• Seated pulse rate below 45 bpm or higher than 90 bpm at screening
• Seated blood pressure below 90/60 mmHg or higher than 140/90 mmHg at screening
• Relationship to persons involved directly with the conduct of the study (i.e., principal investigator; sub-investigators; study coordinators; other study personnel; employees or contractors of the sponsor or Johnson \& Johnson subsidiaries; and the families of each)
• Presence of any tongue piercings
• Presence of braces
• Females who are pregnant or are lactating
• Females of childbearing potential or males with a female partner of childbearing potential who refuse to use an acceptable contraceptive regimen throughout the entire duration of the study
• Females who are pregnant according to a positive serum pregnancy test
• Any medical history or condition, or use of any drug or medication, that the investigator determines could compromise subject safety or the evaluation of results.
